Use the bracelets for assigning students into teams for class projects. Or if you want random team assignment, put the bracelets in a paper bag and have students close their eyes and pick one.

Little “Thank you!” bags for my students before testing on Tuesday:
- a bag of Wise chips: because they’ve grown so “wise” this year.
- a Hug juice: because I’m here if they need a “hug” tomorrow.
- a pack of Big Red gum: because they’ve been on “fire” all year and they’re ready.
- a tiny umbrella: because we’ve “covered” everything and I’m confident they’re prepared.
- an eraser: because they should “erase” all they’re fears this week.
- a Cry Baby gumball: because they make me want to “cry” when I think about how proud I am to be their teacher.
- a Now & Later: because I love you “now” and I’ll always love you “later” — no matter what.
I do this every year. Each year I come up with different corny things to tuck away inside. They pretend to roll their eyes and giggle, of course. I mean, 6th graders are “too cool”, right? Secretly: they love it because I always tear up when I’m handing them out. They truly know how much I believe in them — that always means the world to me.

Using zombies to teach kids geography
Social studies teacher David Hunter has developed a curriculum in which students must learn geographic concepts to survive a zombie apocalypse. Hunter designed the proposed curriculum for fifth- to eighth-grade students and said he is trying to raise funds that would allow him to eventually offer the curriculum to teachers as a free digital download. “Remember you can either feed your brain or feed your brain to the zombies,” Hunter said.
