Thanksgiving School Play – Includes Music with Jack Hartmann

School Play, Teacher's Pay Teachers, Teaching Tips

Do you want your students to SHINE this year?  Children are so adorable when they are performing for others!  This is a school play I’ve used with my whole grade level on our school’s stage.  You can modify it to just your classroom.  Whatever fits your needs.  Jack Hartmann, one of my favorite musicians in education, has three songs in this play that your students can sing along to while making those parents snap Thankful Festivalphotos! You can find his music HERE.   If you are lucky to live in Florida, he will come to your school to perform.  He is magical with students! There are 70 pages loaded with easy to follow step-by-step directions.  You will also find signs for the students to hold, headbands, editable invitations, editable programs, poems, sign language and tips.  It is nice to have parents stay after to eat lunch with their child.  This way you can get them in to see the student’s classwork.  It is loaded with suggestions to help you be successful.   I hope your parents enjoy it as much as mine do!

If you like this one, I also have an ocean themed play I like to use at the end of the school year.

Mood Changing Bottle Labels

Teacher's Pay Teachers, Teaching Tips

Are your students nervous to take that big test?  Do you know a child who hates to speak in front of the class?  How about a student who comes to school sleepy?  Well, use these labels on your hand sanitizer, lotion bottles, or water mist bottles to boost their mood in a positive direction.  I keep these on my desk and by the front door.  Even though it’s the placebo effect, it works!  You can find them by clicking here.  I have schools who order them for the entire staff during state tests.  Have fun creating the happy moods in your classroom! Print on a full sheet of label paper, cut and stick or use rubber cement to glue to a bottle after printing on copy paper.  Mood Labels SQUARE
