Fourth of July Activities

John Adams, the second president, wrote about the 4th of July to his wife in 1776 saying, "It will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more.

End of the School Year Discipline

It is getting close to the end of the school year, and discipline is crucial. Hopefully, teachers, you are still taking a leadership responsibility in the classroom and not letting the students run the show. It is important in the last month and weeks of school to keep students engaged in learning, active, and interested. Here are some tips for teachers to help your students stay on task for the remainder of the school year:
  1. Praise students for positive behavior - This will encourage others to follow their example.
  2. Give students short class assignments that need to be handed in - This can be done using learning activity centers in the classroom.
  3. Keep students busy with higher level thinking questions and assignments - Prepare your students for the next grade level by giving them more challenging work.
  4. Spend 10 minutes per day in a family class meeting - Ask students to share if they are having any concerns with other students, and then guide their discussion to get a resolution to the problem. Also, this will be a great time to praise the class for positive things that have done during the day. FOCUS ON THE POSITIVE!!!
  5. Have students stand up, get out of their seat, and stretch every 30 minutes
