Miss Art of Teaching

Yesterday, I cleaned out a few things from my house including a 'deer' head from TYPO. I purchased the small resin stag head around two years ago. I asked the friendly GA to nail it on the wall for me.  I'm not sure if I like the 'DONUT GIVE UP' words on the bottom. I've been letting students decorate my classroom as a 'reward'. Today, I asked three of the best students to help spray paint my $5 second hand drawer. I added some labels to the drawers to hide away the old sticker labels behind. Not the best colour combinations but I am running out of nice colour sprays. Above: Before photo

In the crazy 47 degrees heat today, I decided to go shopping. I counted the number of suburbs that I had visited today and it came to a total of nine. Above: 11 Drawer Stackable Organiser from Super Cheap Auto for $46 Above: The organiser is generous in terms of space and fits all my newly purchased markers. I used my DYMO tags to label the drawers. Above: I visited two Woolworths as the prices were not consistent.  Above: I managed to spend a total of $116.18 on 26 products. Yesterday, I also purchased 6 x $3.75 DYMO tags (Rrp $15). Above: A few close ups of my purchase minus the 6 small whiteboards ($3.50 per one. Rrp $5 each). I have been forgetting to use my own classroom rewards system during the first two weeks of school. In the holidays I purchased 20 x bags of coins from Kmart. Each coin has the description 'you have been caught being good'. I want to create a friendly class vs class competition where they try to have the most...
