I decided it would be a great time to showcase some of my Catholic products including a FREEBIE for helping students to pray. Any of these products could be used in a Catholic school, an after school religious ed program or even in a homeschool environment. I'll link them all to the longer blog posts where I went into more detail explaining how I use them if you want more information. How are you celebrating Catholic schools week where you teach?
Catholic Schools Week
Monday, January 25, 2016
Catholic Schools Week is fast approaching (some celebrating this week, some celebrating next week) and this is the perfect time to celebrate Catholic education in the United States. Each school celebrates differently but there are often open houses, Masses, and whole school celebrations. I noticed that Brooke from Countless Smart Cookies posted on Instagram that she and a friend were doing a linky party and a giveaway for Catholic schools week.

These reward tags (or STAR tags as I call them in the classroom but sometimes go by brag tags, behavior tags, etc.) have changed my class this year for the better. I use a tag as a reward for each prayer my students memorize. They LOVE it and love earning tags and I love not dumping money into a treasure box of junk. I also use them to reward positive behavior. My students proudly wear their necklaces during class and love to earn more. I also give them a tag after each lesson we do to help initiate a discussion at home about what we learned that day. I love using these and can't say enough about the difference it has made in my classroom each week. Go HERE to read more about how I used Catholic Reward Tags.
