Teeny Tiny Day is a day my students love! Learning, but doing it with tiny things make it a day they always remember! A lot of students don't realize that things, like the tic-tacs, or notebooks, can even come in smaller sizes. So, I love being able to also teach them every day things. As a teacher I am always looking for was to integrate new ways of learning and with Teeny Tiny Day it fills that bill. We use tiny golf pencils to do our work for the day, use tiny finger lights to read out of our favorite chapter books, and reward ourselves with the tiny treats like the tic-tacs.
