With the beginning of the year here, it is time to establish new classroom routines and procedures! One procedure that I wanted my students to 'get down' right away is writing their name on their paper. I have cards on the board with the steps they are supposed to follow, I remind them to write their name a couple of times, and still....I get papers with no name!
On the second day of school, I showed my students our 'hand in' box and we went over highlighting our names before we put our work in. So far, so good!! There was a couple of times where a student went to hand in their paper, they grabbed a highlighter, and realized they hadn't written their name!

Enjoy! and start catching those 'no name' papers!
I love this.
ReplyDeleteI implemented this last year, and it has been a lifesaver! Not to mention a major time saver! Excellent idea - thanks!
