For the past 13 years, I have been keeping a journal of the funny (or just plain outrageous) things my students say to me. I reread the pages of the book whenever I need a laugh. Believe me... it's quite a collection! The collection of funny things that the mom kept in the jar reminded me of my journal, but it also inspired me to think about how I could use the jar idea in my classroom.
This year, my class is going to have a memory jar (inspired by the jar mentioned above). My plan is to end each day by choosing a student to add one memory from the day to our jar. I will have pre-cut strips of paper and I will probably write the memory on the slip myself (with the students name) to add to our jar.

I always do a memory book of some sort with my students. The memory book that I use is available at my Teachers Notebook and Tpt shops. In addition to the memory book, I plan to compile the "memories" from our jar into a list that can be added to each child's memory book.
Here are the 2 versions of the label that I made. The first set is blue/green (since those are the colors in my classroom). I made a second set in black/white for anyone who prefers those. I included labels for grades K - 4.
Enjoy your day!
This is a great idea. Thank you for sharing.

ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing! I always mean to write down the funny things my students say, and have definitely been better at it some years more than others. Maybe this will be what I need to make this a better year at writing it down! :)

ReplyDeleteConsider creating a time line, beginning with your first contact with the person and ending with the present. This will help you uncover a possible trigger event that caused the communication breakdown to begin. For example, you might discover that your co worker began dismissing your ideas when you got some fancy new equipment that he didn't get..
