Spring is just around the corner. For those of us in New England, it couldn't get here any faster. It is this time of year, that I look forward to decorating my classrooms with bright festive colors. This decor brings warmth to the classroom and gets the children looking forward to what is to come.
As an incentive to my teachers, I decided to have a "March Madness Contest". Each teacher has been instructed to come up with new spring projects both for their students and for their classrooms. At the end of the contest, I will award prizes of gift certificates to local restaurants. This assigned task has brought a new enthusiasm to my teaching staff. Their creativity has been so impressive (I think we may need to come up with categories and hand out more than one reward)!
Check out our Craft pages for some of the results. I will continue to post more and let you know which of my teachers are in the lead. Go MHS staff!
