Fantastic VIPkid or GoGoKid Reward Idea

So I just discovered an incredible new reward system for our little kiddos at VIPKid or GoGokid!

These funny face sticker books are perfect for kids of all ages!

If I know the girl is a girly girl I do one of the princess or jewelry books. If I know that a boy's favorite animal is a tiger I pull that page ahead of time.

During the lesson at intervals I allow the students to pick facial features!

Even my most serious of boys belly laughed at their final product!

The best part?! Every student I have used this with has priority requested me a few minutes after the lesson ended. Coincidence? I think not!

Check out some of the books I have below!

Some of my students' creations!

Say what? Inference Oops

I have been barreling through with this cold all week. We started learning about inference this week. For the most part it has been going well. We read "Made out of Meat" and then made inferences about the story. The story is a conversation between two beings and their discussion about these beings they have just encountered who are, "Made out of meat." The reader needs to infer that the being having a conversation are aliens and the beings made out of "meat" are humans. An adaptation of the story if you are interested: At the end of the story the aliens decide that they are going to, "Pretend like no one is home," and leave without making contact. One of the inference questions I asked my students was, "Why were the aliens going to pretend like no one is home?" One block of my s...
