A few months ago I saw the idea of having a VIP table floating around social media. As soon as I saw it, I knew I had to give it a try. I had an extra table in my room that I used to use for writing. For some reasons my students never took to it this year. I knew it would be the perfect VIP table!
I had a lot of fun shopping for supplies and setting it up. It was ready to go on a Monday and caught the attention of my class immediately. We had to talk about what VIP mean and together we set expectations up for the table. We decided how we would choose who sat there and how the supplies worked.
I have had the VIP table in action for several weeks now. It has yet to loose its luster. I am sure if the luster does fade, I would just need to find some new supplies at the Dollar Spot to make it shiny again. It has been such an easy way for me to reinforce positive behavior in the classroom.
To learn all the details of my VIP table, click the picture below to be taken to my Teachers Pay Teachers store. There, you can download a freebie with details and signs for your own table!
Absolutely love this idea. I have a hall of fame and this would be perfect for those students! Thanks so much for sharing.
Thanks!! Hope it goes well!
Love your post! I'm going t try a VIP table too this year. I have an old vintage school desk that I plan on using. I tried clicking on then picture to go to your store but an error message came back. Ooops. Your classroom looks adorable! Wishing you a great school year!

Fun idea! This fall I'm going to try a VIP Portable Supply Caddy. For 5th grade our rotations are approximately one hour, so this might be a fun motivator…"Who's this week's VIP?" Have a great summer!
Thanks so much!! I am sure that your 5th graders will love it. Having a supply caddy is perfect! Have a great summer also!!
I love this idea! i will for sure do something like this. Question> How do they get to go to the VIP table in your classroom?
Thanks! There are a variety of ways that you can pick who goes to the VIP table. If you download my freebie I have them laid out on their! Good luck!
Thanks for the freebie. I just so happen to have a VIP theme for my classroom and ran across this. I can't wait to use this as part of my classroom plan.
Yay!! So happy to hear this. Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful school year!
