The kids are out of my classroom right now for indoor recess. It is mercifully my day not to have duty. We just got their desks cleaned out, undoubtedly inspired by my recent massive purge in the classroom. Honestly, if you were here on the day before Thanksgiving for that party, you won't recognize the classroom now.
Anyway, I told the kids that as a part of the new status quo, I will be inspecting their desks after school every Tuesday afternoon, and it will be reflected as a part of their work habits grade. Some of the more Type A students did not, surprisingly, have the cleanest desks! But they do now, and hopefully this fresh start will help keep things in place--along with the weekly check-up policy.
