Another teacher recently asked me these questions. So, here are my answers along with our school's February Fun schedule for this year. Happy last day of January!
With it being almost February, I thought I’d ask about the February Fun Days. Would you do that every day, all day?
Yes, we do that every day. I will attach our schedule below. It is a bit of work, but a huge morale booster and I find February Fun Days well worth the effort. I do try to keep extra work on our parts to a minimum though.
And did you find it very hard to keep them focused on their work during the February Fun Days?
Sometimes, yes, but we have a good classroom culture that is mixed with fun and hard work, so usually, their grades actually go up during February. I do stress that we are going to have fun, but that they must get their work done. I have found that our students usually handle it really well.
