 I have been back in the mood to make clipart!  I've learned some new tricks from a colleague and man they are a game changer!  I love how these little cuties turned out!  I'm not sure which is my favorite, but the angel is up there pretty high!  Check them out at my tpt store!

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.
