I have a to-do list a mile long, and summer just seems to be flyin' by. I can finally check something else off of my list-YAY. I finished up my mighty message posters and I think they will be just what I needed. We talk about story theme all year in the classroom, so these posters will get a whole lot of use. These posters have "I Can . . . Statements, so students can really take ownership of these messages/themes and connect them to their own lives. I also think it will definitely help with behavior in the classroom. If a student is not sharing, I can remind them of the mighty message, and have them go take a looksy at our chart. There are also recording pages included, so students can record all the books they read under the correct theme. I plan to introduce each of the mighty messages the first couple of weeks of school to set the stage for a positive classroom climate. They will write about a time they demonstrated each of the mighty messages in their own lives. If you are interested in this resource, please check it out in my TPT store.
