It isn't fair


I am trying to decide between two scenarios:

1. if I want to start the year with a lesson on the different between fair and equal.
2. If I want to save a collection quotes/activities ready for the first time (and you know it will happen) a student says, "That's not fair."

I decided to pull together all of the quotes quotes and activity ideas that I found on the topic that I like!

Love me some Snape....Always.



I've always liked this cartoon and Ed Sheeran also Instagramed it so that's a +

I like telling my students that YOU are responsible for YOU. Which annoys them, but if you say it enough times, it starts to sink in.

How I did it: After my prints came in the mail, I went to Lowes and found  This . All I did was trace the print on the insulation board, cut it with a regular box cutter, and paint the edges of it with a Paint Sample  that accented my walls.  The last step was gluing the print to the insulation board.

Music for the Middle School Classroom

One of my most popular posts ever was my  Pandora Stations for the Middle School Classroom I thought I would let you guys know about another gem that I found that my students LOVED!
