This Teacher Lets Her Students Name the Objects in the Room

This Teacher Lets Her Students Name the Objects in the Room

In the midst of a busy school year, especially as the dreaded third-quarter slump approaches, keeping students engaged can sometimes feel like a daunting task. We are always on the lookout for innovative and fun ways to enhance our classroom management techniques and increase student involvement. That’s why Amanda Davies, a dedicated middle school teacher and librarian, has shared a brilliant classroom hack that has caught our attention, and we are excited to pass it along to you.

The ingenious hack involves letting students name the supplies that tend to go missing or get borrowed without permission. Amanda came up with this creative idea while revamping her classroom and library spaces after a recent renovation. Instead of just giving her book carts a fresh coat of paint, she decided to engage her students in a naming contest for these carts. This idea has since expanded to include essential classroom tools like dry-erase markers, scissors, and even loaner pencils.

Naming these classroom objects serves a dual purpose. Firstly, students are less likely to misplace items that they have personally named, which helps in reducing chaos and clutter in shared classroom spaces. Additionally, the act of naming objects creates a more personalized and relatable learning environment, fostering a sense of ownership and responsibility among students.

To implement this naming system in your own classroom, follow these simple steps:

– Identify items that are frequently used or often go missing.
– Use a Google Form to collect name suggestions or allow students to vote on names for the items.
– Announce the winning names and label the items accordingly with paper, markers, and labels for a visual reminder.
– Encourage creativity and humor in the naming process to make it engaging and memorable for students.

This naming strategy is not limited to book carts or library settings. Teachers in various grades and subjects can adapt this idea to their classrooms. Whether it’s lab equipment in a science room or musical instruments in a music class, giving objects a name can significantly enhance students’ interactions with their learning tools.

So, why not add a touch of personality to your classroom while also addressing common organizational issues? Give this naming strategy a try and witness how quickly your students develop a sense of pride in their creatively named classroom objects.
