Inspiration and Adorable Clipart for Teachers

Hey there,

I was perusing TPT and came across Littlest Learners sub plans. It gave me an idea to create this for my future class but with a few graphic changes (graphics from The Pond ). If you haven't checked their graphics out I highly recommend it. As I mentioned this was not my idea :). I would highly recommend a visit to her site!! It has a lot of interesting and fun resources.




Thanks again Littlest Learners!!!

Homework Linky Party...What do you do?

What do you do for weekly homework? Have you used packets before? What kinds of activities do you assign in your packets? During student teaching I saw how beneficial they can be.

Here is what I have created. It includes a cover sheet where daily homework is indicated. There is also, a reading log and a high frequency worksheet. I will be posting it on TPT soon!!

Let me know what you think!

Classroom Mascot Ideas

Hey there,

Hope you all are having a wonderful week!!

Do any of you have a classroom mascot? If so, what do you do?
One idea that I really like is having students take the mascot home for the week and document their adventures (maybe in a journal). Then, at the end of the week they would come and share with the class their week in pictures/writing.

Another idea is to have the student of the week take the mascot home.

I would love to hear your ideas!! Thanks!!

Hi there,

What are some beginning of the year essentials that you love?

What are some extra supplies that you like to have but are not a must?

Also, what are some of your favorite ways to organize your lesson plans? One of my essentials is sticky notes (especially if they are cute). I use them all the time!!


F.Y.I-  I love seeing pictures of teacher ideas!!


Thanks!
