Remember these??? I made these coupons in the beginning of this school year. After I had become grey after the first week of school I knew I had to do something. If you missed the original post...find it here! I am on Spring Break this week friends! I have found the time to make some more of these magical behavior reward coupons. Oh.my.word! My kiddos nearly brought me to tears on Friday with their horrid behavior. Was it a full moon??? ALL.WEEK.LONG??? Seriously! They were SOOOOOOOOOO B.A.D! This got me thinking. I think those little devils nuggets need some more coupons for me to tease them with. We all know if they have a little break they forget all the rules. I WILL NOT be miserable after break. I REFUSE. I am just going to dangle these magical coupons in front of them & they will be dying to trade! Dying! I know you must have the same problem. This will eliminate the "runners" when I call bus riders to the line. … [Read more...] about More reward coupons!

Oh.my.word! My class is obsessed with http://www.spellingcity.comHave you tried it out with your class??? I started www.spellingcity.com last year.

These are the directions we used when we had the free membership. These are the directions we use for the premium membership. I sent these directions home & the parents were so … [Read more...] about We’re O.B.S.E.S.S.E.D with………SPELLING CITY!
