I ask for collateral if students want to borrow a pen or pencil. They need to leave a pencil case, book, etc of theirs and then I give it back at the end of period/day. This helps both of us remember that an item was borrowed. Cute blog. I found you through the Farley Currently Link Up.

I think for the past three years that is all I have asked my hubby for when it came to any holiday or birthday he needed an "idea" for, but I have yet to get one! :)<br />Along with confusing "your" and "you're" I also don't like when people confuse "there", "their", and "they're". I totally blame my 8th grade English teacher Mrs. Adams.

Students have to get their trays and eat while they work. No recess, no talking, no fun. We all take turns a week at a time. The kids hate giving up their lunch, so it does help.
