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 […]
Currently: March {a bit personal}
Do the months just seem to be flying be, or is it just me? I absolutely loved February with my kiddos. We got so much accomplished and I’m really starting to see them blossom and “get it.” This time of the year is when I also see the gap grow wider and I’m worried for […]
How to make a Heart-Shaped American Flag
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 […]
Currently February and How to link Instagram to your Teacher Facebook account
I haven’t linked up with the hilarious Farley in a month, so let’s get February started right. My sweet boyfriend bought me an apple TV I didn’t think I needed or wanted. That is until my sweet Instagram teacher friends introduced me to “Scandal” and “Revenge.” It’s a problem people. I’d rather lounge in bed with […]
Five for Friday Linky Party: February 7th
I’m linking up with Doodle Bugs Teaching after a long, hard day! I’m thinking this 1/2 combo class is stretching me a bit too thin. Looking forward to a weekend to decompress. Our Donors Choose project was funded a few weeks ago and we are loving our new Samsung Chromebooks. We use them daily for math […]
A fun way to get your students to follow directions {hopefully}
I’m guilty as charged. I’m not the best at following directions…especially when it comes to baking. I glaze over the directions and as a result, most of the treats I make end up burnt, tasting funky, or just plain awful. Maybe it’s because I’m impatient??? But let me tell you, my students are the same […]
