What? cheer cards, Cheerios box or Cheer detergent box, heavy paper, scissors
Why? attention grabbers, positive self-esteem, classroom family
When? large group, small group, all day long
How? Copy the cheer cards below on heavy paper. Cut apart. Introduce one new cheer each day. Use the cheer throughout the day. At the end of the day take a Cheerios box or a Cheer detergent box and say, “We’ve learned a new cheer. Let’s save it in our “cheer box.”
Hint! You can also tape these cheers to a bulletin, classroom door, etc.
*When you want to encourage a child, have her reach into the “cheer box” and lead the class in that cheer.
I have two different sets of cheer cards so you can choose the one that you like best.

Cheers in Spanish
I’m so excited to share these cheer cards that Carla Ureno (El Paso ISD) created! It’s not easy to translate some of these things into Spanish, so Carla needs to KISS HER BRAIN!
P.S. And thanks to Teacher Toni for updating the graphics. She made them the perfect size to put on a ring.

¡Que las disfruten!
Here are two videos where you can watch me demonstrate many of the cheers.
