St. Patrick's Day Activities and a freebie!

Ok, so I was not even planning on making a product for St. Patrick's Day, but I fell head over heels in love with Creative Clips St. Patrick's Day Clipart set, so here I sit a midnight trying to finish this little goodie up!  I love making themed things but it's hard not knowing what we will all be teaching at said holiday, so I did try to make these versatile and something you could still squeeze in even if it's not a standard being taught this week.  Up first, I thought it would be fun to just make coloring sheets of this super cute clipart, so I made two worksheets of color by sight words.
 


 
Pretty cute right?  Next I thought the kids might enjoy working a word search.  This would be great for morning work!
 

Then I could not make my mind up on a short reader.  I love little booklets, but I also know that they are pretty time consuming, but I still just had to make one!  I however took the same story and turned it into a worksheet where the kiddos can read the short story and then cut and paste the pictures in the correct sequence.






The last page above has some questions to see if they comprehended what they read or not.  Next up is this super cute Lucky Me pamphlet.  Simply print it, staple it, color it, and then cut the flaps to the gray to answer three questions:  I am lucky at school because, I am lucky at home because, and I am lucky because:


 
 

I also had to throw in a pot of gold craftivity.  This one you can cut in the shape of the pot of gold for extra cuteness:)  Students will write about what they would do if they found a pot of gold, First, next, and last. The last page is a spot for illustration.
 

 
 Last, but certainly not least is actually my favorite.  If I were a leprechaun:  I think he turned out super cute and I absolutely love my little girls answers:)  These are great to hang in the hall or on a bulletin board.




So there you have it!  I got carried away and worked on this all day!  Good thing for you is all you have to do is swing on over to my store and snatch this cutie up!  Grab it Feb 26th or 27th and it will be 25% off during my TPT sale!  Whoop Whoop!!  Go download the preview for this cute freebie!
 
 
 
 
 
Grab it here!
 
 
Till next time, Teach on!

Love is in the Air! Valentine's Day Bulletin Board Ideas

  I am so excited to share this with you all.  I have fallen in love with creating bulletin boards.  The thing is all that super cute clipart out there that would make things so much easier for me, well it doesn't allow you to create bulletin boards due to copyright because you are not changing the image in any way. So don't do it!  In comes my small artistic ability and an apple pen!  I created three different Valentine's Day displays!  And the best thing is they are all interactive!  Yay!  So, the first one is my "Muffin" board.  This one is for a smaller board about half the size of the great big hallway boards.  It turned out super sweet and fun!  So how does this work interactively? Students will scan thee QR page. The QR code will take students to my first directed drawing with Shelia and Joe!  Here they will draw their very own muffin and then color.  Click the picture to see the video!   After they complete the directed drawing all you have to do is lamina

Kindergarten Halloween Centers

I am so excited to start this new blog!  I have put some serious hours in!  Last year I drew some really cute halloween cuties but with 4 kids under 8 I never got around to posting them.  So I thought I would start this new blog with some Halloween fun!                                                           Click here to buy at my tpt store I was so excited about these cuties I decided to make a few things with them.  I wanted to make these centers 5x7 cards so I could buy one of those super cute photo boxes that everybody is using, but I can't justify the price tag! So for now I think some cute titled envelopes will do. My soon to be 5 year old and I have been getting ready for next year and kindergarten!  So these were made for her, so preschool/kindergarten.  First we started with these cute play-doh mats. I was over the moon with my witch fingers I found at Target.  I was immediately 8 years old and pretending I was the witch in wizard of oz.  I love

20 Small Group Center Ideas

SMALL GROUP...  My two most hated words my first 3 years of teaching... the sound of these words together made my stomach turn!  Everyone from coworkers to specialists had the ideas, but the countless hours I spent trying to make these "ideas" and this time engaging for the ENTIRE class was disgusting. I gave up many nights and weekends trying to find something that worked and kept the littles attention for longer than 2 minutes! I spent hours laminating and cutting - trying to make hands on activities that not only kept them engaged but was also growing those little brains!  Everything I tried just didn't seem to keep them at their desks working independently , so I could work with the kiddos at my small group table.  I was defeated. I felt like I was failing my students. I knew my low babies needed this time more than any part of the day, but I just couldn't find a way to make it successful. Fast forward out of my self pity to a Christmas craft fair in my hometown.
