To add a label, slick "Show Labels" in the post section and then click on the two labels you need: semester and category.

Morning Message

In trainings and faculty meetings they have been encouraging us to write morning messages on the board. I have found that the students love this and reading it is the first thing they do when they come in the classroom. I started including at the end of my message what I needed the students to get ready or what I would like to have them do as soon as they get to their seats. Sometimes it might be to get materials ready for instruction, solve a problem I have given them on their white boards, something to do with what I taught the students they day before in class (like find the mistakes in my message on possessives), get papers ready to correct or get a math game out and play it with your partner.

This has saved me time in having to tell all the students what to do or having to wait once I give them instructions to get everything out and ready to go after the second bell rings. This way they are right ready to go when the second bell rings.
