A new month is starting and holy moly, just 2 months left of school! We just got back from Spring Break so I was revitalized and ready after a weekend in San Diego. I’m linking up with Farley again for this month’s Currently. I’ve never really “celebrated” April Fool’s Day like I did today. Can […]
So Cal Blogger Meet Up
When I began my journey as a teacher in 2005, I figured I’d teach my kiddos how to read, write, be good citizens and friends. I’d collaborate with staff, grade papers when I got home, and leave the rest in the classroom. You know, the usual. I had no idea teaching would be the way […]
March ELA Centers and a “Magic Container” Sight Word Activity
I love March, not just because it’s a short month AND we are on Spring Vacation the last week, but I’m loving it because this is a great time of the year because everything starts to “click” and kiddos are showing amazing progress. This year school year has been a challenge with implementing Common Core […]
Super Easy Before-During-After Reading Strategy
I love cutsey centers and colorful paper. Heck, I even asked for a laminator {and got one} for Christmas. But let’s be honest, I don’t have time for all of that…all of the time! Ok…even half of the time. I’m a huge fan of low-zero prep. activities that are meaningful and engaging. And teaching […]

Teaching my first graders about symbols has always been a favorite unit of mine. I’m not the most patriotic person on the planet, but studying the symbols and seeing their excitement makes me proud to be an American. I’ve done several crafts over the years and have seen this one on different posts, so I […]
Five for Friday: Valentine Edition
I promised myself that I would put my computer away for most of the weekend to relax and enjoy life. Last week was so busy and fun. I decided to put our math book away for the week {due to Lincoln’s birthday and the day off, several assemblies, and specials). I seriously loved not […]
Some fun Valentine’s Day art projects
I don’t know about you, but I love Valentine’s Day {Hallmark holiday and all} because I love people spreading love. I especially love the idea of Valentine’s Day because I think it’s important for kiddos to show their love and be kind to one another. Granted they should do it all the time, but it’s […]
