3rd Grade Classroom Management Resources (by date, oldest first)

This "Turn & Talk Poster" is a vibrant and engaging resource designed to foster effective communication within the classroom. This poster serves as a visual guide, providing step-by-step instructions for students on how to initiate and participate in thoughtful conversations.

With clear and colorful illustrations, the poster emphasizes key communication etiquette:

1. Direct Engagement: Encourages students to face their conversation partner directly, promoting a sense of connection and active participation.
2. Eye Contact: Highlights the importance of maintaining eye contact during discussions, reinforcing the significance of attentive listening and mutual respect.
3. Sequential Speaking: Reminds students to take turns speaking, ensuring that each voice is heard and fostering a balanced exchange of ideas.
4. Active Listening: Encourages students to listen quietly and attentively while their peers are speaking, creating a conducive environment for understanding and empathy.
5. Teacher Connection: Guides students to return their attention to the teacher, promoting a smooth transition between partner discussions and whole-class interactions.

The "Turn & Talk Poster" is not only an educational tool but also a fun and visually appealing addition to the classroom environment. By incorporating this resource, educators can instill valuable communication skills in their students while creating a positive and collaborative learning atmosphere.

Este archivo le será de gran utilidad a la hora de hacer un seguimiento de entrega de las distintas tareas que usted propone a sus alumnos en distintas plataformas online, como Seesaw por poner un ejemplo. He puesto las asignaturas de Lectura y Sociales, la de matemáticas y la de Ciencias Naturales pues son las que me competen, pero si usted imparte distintas materias, sólo tiene que cambiarles el nombre.

En la primera pestaña, la de color amarillo, podrá ver una visión clara y rápida de cómo están trabajando cada uno de sus alumnos. En esta pestaña no tiene que meter más datos que el nombre de sus alumnos y el ID si se deseara.

Será en las otras tres pestañas, las referentes a las asignaturas mencionadas, donde se marcará con un simple clic quién realiza cada una de las tareas asignadas. A mis alumnos les mando una tarea diaria de cada asignatura. Se nos mostrará el número de tareas realizadas y la nota semanal de cada alumno, siendo el baremo el siguiente: un 1 si entregan 1 tarea, un 2 si entregan 2, un 3 si entregan 3, y un 4 si entregan 4 o 5 tareas. Cambie la fórmula de la columna "nota" si usted tiene un baremo distinto.

En la primera pestaña, la llamada "Inicio", aparecerá de forma automática el número de tareas que cada alumno realizó cada semana y en cada asignatura, pero la nota que aparece es la nota media de cada una de las semanas hasta la fecha. Da igual si su trimestre es de nueve semanas o menos, los datos que aparezcan siempre serán acordes al número de semanas introducidos. Si usted dejó de meter datos en la semana siete, las notas serán automáticamente una nota media en base a siete semanas y no a nueve.

Por último, la pestaña naranja, la llamada "Tareas semanales", me sirve para saber quién me entrega la tarea semanal, una única entrega por semana. En ella se marca quién entrega esta tarea y se nos muestra el número total de tareas presentadas y el porcentaje que representa en cada una de las semanas. Así pues, si un alumno presenta la tarea las tres primeras semanas, reflejará un 100% en cada una de ellas, pero si no vuelve a entregar ninguna el porcentaje irá disminuyendo paulatinamente hasta la última semana de evaluación.

This file will be very useful when it comes to tracking the delivery of the different homework that you propose to your students on the different online platforms, for example, Seesaw or Google Class, for up to 9 weeks.

 I have put the subjects of Language Arts and Social Studies, Mathematics and Natural Sciences because they are the ones that concern me, but if you teach different subjects, you just must rename them. 

In the "Home" tab, the yellow one, you can see a clear and quick overview of how each of your students is working. In this tab, you don't have to enter more data than the name of the students and the ID if desired. It will be in the other three tabs, those referring to the mentioned subjects, where you will mark with a simple click who performs each of the assigned tasks. 

I use to send them a daily exercise for each subject. It will show us the number of daily homework performed and the grade of each student in each of the weeks. The range used is the following: a "1" if they deliver a weekly homework, a "2" if they deliver two, a "3" if they deliver three, and a "4" if they deliver four or five tasks throughout the week. Change the formula in the "Grade" column if you have a different string. 

In the first tab, called "Home", the number of assignments performed by each student in each subject will appear automatically below every week´s column. The grade that appears is the average grade for all the weeks to date. It does not matter if your quarter is nine weeks or less, the data that appears will always be according to the number of weeks entered. If there were no more than seven weeks, the marks will automatically be an average mark based on seven weeks and not nine. 

Finally, the orange tab helps me to know who gives me a series of WEEKLY exercises that in my class we call “Weekly homework”. It is marked who gives it and it shows us the total number of weekly tasks submitted and the percentage that it represents to date. So, if a student submits the Weekly Assignment for the first three weeks, it will reflect 100% in all of them, but if they stop delivering them, the percentage will gradually decrease until the last evaluation week. On the contrary, if the student does not present anything the first two weeks, but he does in the third, in the first two you could see 0% and in the third 33%, since that is what it represents to date.

He proporcionado asignaturas como Lectura y Sociales, Matemáticas y Ciencias Naturales, pero si imparte otras materias, simplemente cambie los nombres.

En la primera pestaña, de color amarillo, obtendrá una visión clara y rápida del progreso de cada alumno. Aquí solo necesita ingresar el nombre de los alumnos y, si lo desea, su ID.

En las tres pestañas restantes, correspondientes a las asignaturas mencionadas, puede marcar con un simple clic quién ha completado cada tarea asignada. Envío una tarea diaria para cada asignatura a mis alumnos. Se mostrará el número de tareas completadas y la calificación semanal de cada alumno, utilizando la siguiente escala: 1 si entregan 1 tarea, 2 si entregan 2, 3 si entregan 3, y 4 si entregan 4 o 5 tareas. Si su baremo es diferente, simplemente cambie la fórmula en la columna "calificación".

En la primera pestaña, llamada "Inicio", se mostrará automáticamente el número de tareas que cada alumno ha completado semanalmente en cada asignatura, y la calificación que aparece es el promedio de las calificaciones semanales hasta la fecha. No importa si su trimestre es de nueve semanas o menos, los datos siempre estarán basados en el número de semanas ingresadas. Si deja de ingresar datos en la semana siete, las calificaciones se calcularán automáticamente en función de siete semanas, no nueve.

Por último, en la pestaña naranja, llamada "Tareas semanales", podrá verificar quién ha entregado la tarea semanal, que se debe entregar una vez por semana. Aquí se registra quién entrega la tarea y se muestra el número total de tareas presentadas y el porcentaje que representan en cada semana. Si un alumno entrega la tarea durante las tres primeras semanas, reflejará un 100% en cada una de ellas. Sin embargo, si no entregan más tareas, el porcentaje disminuirá gradualmente hasta la última semana de evaluación.

For many children, the first thought that comes to mind when winter approaches is “snow day!” The winter can be a time of hibernation as it is cold outside, many extracurricular activities have slowed down, and the days get darker much earlier. When children are cooped up inside, they can become restless and bored quite easily. However, the winter yoga sequence is a great way to promote physical activity and encourage movement during a restless time.

The Winter Sequence is a 13 page PDF download which you can view on your phone, tablet, computer or print out onto paper. We recommend cutting out each card and taping/gluing on a 4x6 index card or card stock. For added durability, laminate each card.
