So On Pinterest I found this gem: (just the Show your Swag part)
I instantly loved it. I really think the kids will buy into it. My only problem is I'm not crazy about the G: Give Snaps/Claps.
So I was wondering if I could get some good suggestions on the G line!? The only thing I can come up with and actually like is Give respect to all.
Perhaps you could change the G line to "Give Props" which is more keeping in line with the "Show your Swag" title?
ReplyDeleteI know that props and swag aren't necessarily vocabulary words all parents will agree with, but if it works in the classroom and gets students on board, I say go for it!
I thought about Give Props too! That might work, going back and forth with that and respect now. :)
Deleteprops was also my first thought as it's 'on theme' ... give feedback would also work?
DeleteJust started following your blog! I have used SLANT but my high schoolers don't buy into that at all. SWAG might work :) we'll see!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I have nominated you for a LIebster Award. The award is a way to recognize bloggers, offer encouragement, and possibly get more readers. Check out my blog post at http://algebrasfriend.blogspot.com/2013/07/a-fun-surprise-today.html.
Play along if you want to! I appreciate your work online!
Wow thanks Beth!! I am going to check out your blog and this award too! Awesome!
DeleteAlso I ran my SWAG idea by the student I am tutoring this summer (7th grader), he liked it! He also thought Give respect to all would be the best one to go with.
I am doing this next year too! I posted about it on my post with my to do list!
