They are each given a class number. They then use the date to figure out if the date is odd or even. Then if their classroom number is odd or even determines if they get to use a cushion for that day. They love the sitting on the floor and working with partners this way. Using the odd even system makes it equal and we have no arguments. : )\r\n\r\nI use the wipe boards to help students learn. I can reuse these over and over. And the student use them too.
