Adding Machine Scrolls
Janet Keohane, a fifth-sixth grade teacher in Beach, North Dakota
I involve my students in an ongoing contest to see who can find the most nouns, adjectives, words with four syllables, etc. from a list of words. I have them number and write their findings on a piece of adding machine tape that can be easily rolled into a scroll and attached with a paper clip to keep it in place. When winners are decided on the final day, I hang everyone's strip from the ceiling. The adding machine tape makes a great display of students' work and they enjoy the change of pace from using regular notebook paper.
