Mrs. Lucey uses Class Dojo as a way to keep up with class points. She gives points for completing homework, when students have their name on their paper, when she sees someone helping someone out, and things of that nature. She also gives them out to the class as a whole sometimes. Students in her class respond really well to using this point system. Each student in her class can save and buy different things from her weekly class dojo shop. Students can purchase candy, small toys, t-shirts, no homework pass, lunch with a teacher pass, and much more! After seeing how well students respond to this type of reinforcement for behavior management I can easily see myself using it just like that in my own future classroom.

I thought that the school-wide expectations were very important to understand not only what Mrs. Lucey expects in her own classroom but what the school as a whole is looking for. The students can also earn "honey money" around campus as a reward for their behavior. It is very important to keep clearly defined expectations up for students and that they are continuously communicated with them, so they know exactly what is expected of them. In my own personal classroom, I would like to have a similar graphic organizer that tells the students how each expectation can be seen in every area of the school's campus. I would like to do this for my students, so they know exactly what I am looking for.

I find the Honey Money reward system noteworthy due to its positive impact on student learning and classroom management. This tool effectively reinforces desired behaviors aligned with schoolwide expectations of being prepared, respectful, and safe. By implementing this system school-wide and in every classroom, students are held accountable consistently across all settings, promoting a cohesive and unified approach to behavior management. They get to redeem their earnings once a month at "the hive". In my classroom, I would integrate a similar system to Honey Money system by clearly outlining the criteria for earning rewards and regularly recognizing students who demonstrate positive behaviors. This approach not only incentivizes students to uphold expectations but also fosters a sense of ownership and responsibility for their actions, ultimately contributing to a positive and supportive learning environment for all students.

Grouped desks with easily accessible materials exemplify effective classroom organization and resource management. This setup promotes collaborative learning while ensuring that students have the necessary materials readily available. By strategically placing materials within reach, educators streamline transitions between activities and minimize disruptions caused by students searching for supplies. This organization enhances student focus and engagement in academic tasks. In my own future classroom, I would love to use grouped desks cultivate a sense of community and belonging among students, contributing to a positive classroom culture and streamlining classroom management with the materials at the students' desks to have them ready to learn.

Throughout her ELA lessons, Mrs. Lucey uses these mini anchor charts to help students throughout lessons and she lets them use them during her flip classroom time as well. The figurative language, types of poems, text structures, authors purpose, and theme charts all directly relate to 3rd grade ELA standards. I believe that this is an important resource for the students because of how often I see them being utilized and how much they actually increase student productivity. By providing the students with these examples, their work becomes more meaningful and they are able to make better connections throughout their learning. In my own classroom I would like to make mini anchor charts like these because I like how easily they can access them, and I genuinely believe that by keeping important information around the room helps students know what ideas are expected of them too.

Mrs. Lucey's use of a small classroom library with labeled bins for different genres and flexible seating options such as benches, chairs with yoga balls, carpet to sit on and twisty chair stools exemplify excellent organization and resource management. This setup allows students to easily access books tailored to their interests and comfort preferences. Some of the types of books include: historical fiction, science fiction, graphic novels, nonfiction! The labeled bins and varied seating options optimize classroom space and promote a sense of ownership among students. By providing an environment for independent reading and comfortable learning experiences, Mrs. Lucey effectively enhances student engagement and classroom management. This approach is noteworthy for its positive impact on student learning and classroom organization. In my classroom, I would adopt a similar strategy to create an inviting and functional learning space conducive to student success.

Teachers and admin often refer back to these schoolwide expectations for students and the level at which their voices should be at throughout the school day.

Mrs. Lucey has these previous essential questions from social studies lessons as a reference for her students. I think that these are beneficial to her and the students as it helps to reflect on the previous lessons they learned and possibly use them in future discussions. For my own class I like the idea of referring back to previous lessons.

Having the 6 ELA expectations posted in the classroom demonstrates effective organization and management of resources by providing students with clear expectations. This visual reminder supports positive classroom behavior and aids in managing individual and class behaviors during ELA activities.

Mrs. Lucey's Focus Wall helps students keep on track with their current learning. For each lesson she keeps the corresponding spelling, grammar, comprehension, and social studies benchmark and target learning presented on her wall for that particular lesson. She also provides the assignment they are working on that contributes to each focus under the essence of learning. She often refers to the essential question for her social studies lessons too. I personally love this resource because it allows students to see exactly what they are learning and why. It helps the teacher ensure that she is right on target with assigned benchmarks and learning goals too. For these reasons, I can easily see myself creating my very own focus wall to refer back to throughout the school year.
