Tippy Tuesday

Welcome to Tippy Tuesday!  Ever since I discovered Pinterest and blogland a year ago, I have found an endless amount of extremely useful teacher tips!    Many of them have me wondering why didn't I think of that?!?!  So, Tippy Tuesday will be a feature on my blog every week, featuring my favorite tip of the week!  These may not be new ideas, but they are new to me and I hope someone out there may find them as useful as I do.

Todays teacher tip is from Ashleigh's Education Journey at http://ashleigh-educationjourney.blogspot.com/.  When I was in the classroom, making work stations work was difficult for me to do, especially at clean up time.  It caused mayhem in the classroom, and I am not a fan of mayhem.  So any tip that I can find to help smooth the chaos of that time is extremely helpful!  When I came across this tip, I was so excited!  But it did make me wonder why I didn't think of that?!


See those baby wipes in the station?  That is the brilliant discovery I made.  Instead of students making their way across the classroom leaving their station to get a wipe at clean up time, put a pack of wipes in the station instead.  Easy peasy, I know.  And that is all for this episode of Tippy Tuesday!  Have a fabulous week friends!

    1. Thank you so much for following. I thought the Tippy Tuesday title was catchy! Probably one of the things I thought of late one night when trying to sleep!
