TEACHER TIP - SECRET CODES

THIS TEACHER TIP IS PRETTY SIMPLE

 AND LOTS OF FUN.

THIS YEAR, I DECIDED TO USE SECRET CODES INSTEAD OF NAME LABELS. 

WHEN STUDENTS ARRIVED WITH THEIR SCHOOL BAGS, THEY FIRST HAD TO SEARCH FOR THEIR SPOT BY DISCOVERING THEIR SECRET CODE. 

FOR EXAMPLE...MY NAME IS MICHELLE SO MY SECRET CODE WOULD BE:

43122332

THEY WERE VERY EXCITED BECAUSE IT WAS DIFFERENT AND CHALLENGING.

I TEACH FOURTH GRADE BUT THIS CAN EASILY BE DONE FOR YOUNGER KIDS WITH NUMBERS OR PICTURES.
