I am doing a frog theme this year. I am not finished, so I don't have any pictures yet.
I do a lunch count chart. I have pictures of a packed lunch and a "bought" lunch. The students place their names under the correct
picture. This is how we take attendance also. This year, the lunch pictures are on lily pads. I found some small wooden frog shapes (they were at Deals, in a package with princess's, crowns, castles)...I glued the frogs to the end of a popsicle stick, and will write the student's name on the other end.

I have a weather frog that you dress for the weather each day. I have

small folding chairs with frogs on them from Big Lots. I also have a frog folding chair (the kind you fold up into the bag)...I got it at Dollar General. I will use it for my "Power Chair". I also bought pillows that I am going to cover with frog material...for the reading center.

I have a frog with a welcome sign with it...it would be a frog you would stick in your flower garden...or outside..it is small...anyways, I am going to sit it on my desk to let kids know when it is ok to approach my desk. (When I am working one on one with a student, the welcome sign will be towards me....when I am not busy with a student, the welcome sign will be facing the class). Not sure if that will curb the interruptions, but I am going to give it a try! :o

I also created "Frogopoly"...like the Homeworkopoly. This will be a behavior incentive for my class.

I will post pictures when I am finished with my classroom.
