The next great find is such a cute idea from Third Grade Love. This could be used towards the end of the year or with a theme such as have such “Bright Students”… Whichever way you use it in your classroom, it is a great and fun way to use poetry or showcase your kids’ writing skills.

I found a very colorful and creative Prize Pass Catalog! It is a catalog that you can use to show your students things they can do when awarded for their good behavior such as taking their shoes off for the day or allowing a stuffed animal on their desk for the day.prize pass bookThis was found on Christie’s First Grade Fever Blog Smile
Here is a creative and inexpensive idea on class jobs for the students. Looks like all you need is a newspaper, popsicle sticks, some small colored envelopes (I’ve seen these at the dollar store) and a computer and printer for the labels. This would be a nice 1st day of school activity for the students to decorate their popsicle stick. Maybe you could also incorporate some yarn for the hair and google eyes :-)
