<br />
I made these labels to help my students identify their notebooks. These really helped out when I couldn't get 24 notebooks of one color! I made interactive notebook labels for language arts, math, science, and social studies.<br />
<br />
These labels are designed to be printed out on 3.5x5" sticky labels (4 labels per sheet). I use these labels <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Avery-Shipping-Labels-Inkjet-Printers/dp/B002JG0E18/ref=sr_1_fkmr2_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1470892659&sr=8-1-fkmr2&keywords=3.5x5+sticky+labels" target="_blank">HERE</a>. Just print, stick, and go! You can find these labels by clicking on the picture below.<br />

My absence was due to having a sweet baby boy last fall. Life with two little ones has kept me busy. I've missed blogging, so I was super excited for the opportunity to join in on this hop!<br />
<br />

<br />
This week we are all sharing our favorite book characters. I LOVE books! Reading to students has always been one of my favorite things to do as a teacher. Here are 5 books with some of my favorite characters.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img height="320" src="https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/516HGZW4VhL._SX339_BO1,204,203,200_.jpg" width="217" /></div>
<br />
<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Junie-Jones-Complete-Kindergarten-Collection/dp/0385376944/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1468987204&sr=8-2&keywords=junie+b+jones+complete+collection" target="_blank">Junie B. Jones</a> by Barbara Park<br />
This was the first character I thought of when I started to think about this post. I've read at least one Junie B. Jones book to each of my first grade classes. Students LOVE her, and so do I! I own the complete series. The series is told from Junie's point of view as a kindergartner and first grader. She is hilarious and the kids totally relate to her. They are short chapter books and I like to use them as a read aloud after lunch recess. I found this to be the best time for me to read them to my class because the students need some time to settle down and refocus for the classroom. Because the students enjoy the books so much, they have a more vested interest in getting back into classroom mode. They can't wait to hear what Junie does next!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

I'm sure every K-1 teacher has read this book, but if you haven't it's really a must read. Students love this sweet mouse and all his shenanigans. There are several mouse books, as well as other animal characters in the "If You Give" series. My favorite of those books to read is <i><a href="https://www.amazon.com/If-You-Take-Mouse-School/dp/0060283289/ref=sr_1_6?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1468988981&sr=1-6&keywords=if+you+give+a+mouse" target="_blank">If You Take a Mouse to School</a>.</i> You can find a unit of activities to go with this book in <a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/If-You-Take-a-Mouse-to-School-Close-Reading-Literature-Study-872129" target="_blank">my store</a> or by clicking the picture below.<br />

Elmer is a unique elephant who thinks he wants to be like everyone else. He soon realizes he loves the way he is, and so do all the other elephants. A great character building book. There are several Elmer books but the one above is where you should start!<br />
<br />

Stella and Sam are brother and sister. Stella has a wonderful imagination and her relationship with her brother is so sweet. They are a great example of getting along with others. There are 5 Stella books and several Sam books. <i>Stella, Star of the Sea</i> is the first book. <br />

All of the Fly Guy books were immensely popular with my first graders, especially with the boys. They were almost always checked out at the library. This endearing book is about a boy who enters a fly into a pet show. Fly Guy is smart and impresses everyone with what he can do. There are over 10 books in the series. <br />

I am linking up this week with <a href="http://hashtagteachermom.blogspot.com/2015/08/tot-school-tuesday-things-that-go.html#comment-form" target="_blank">#TeacherMom</a>'s new tot school linky. One thing my kiddo needs more time with is learning her colors. So last week we focused on the color red! Since red reminds me of apples, I made this apple sensory bin.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CiXCaK8MLfM/Vd6NGksTbpI/AAAAAAAABWg/nbrVhUp-YbM/s1600/Slide8.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CiXCaK8MLfM/Vd6NGksTbpI/AAAAAAAABWg/nbrVhUp-YbM/s400/Slide8.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
This was really easy to make! Here is a list of things included:<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
- bin - Target Dollar Spot</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- apples - Michael's Craft Store (don't forget to use the 40% off coupon!)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- oats - any grocery store</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- apple trees - toilet paper rolls, construction paper and red marker for the apples</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- animals, farmer and fence - Little People Farm play set</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
(Pictured Below)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
- tongs</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
-box for apples - from a Melissa and Doug play food set</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The only thing I had to buy for this activity was the apples. I got them 40% off at Michael's with a coupon. Everything else we had at home.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Isla loved reading these cards from <a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Preschool-Homeschool" target="_blank">Preschool Homeschool</a>. They are simple sentences about things that are red. Preschool Homeschool has sets like this for every color and for other themes. They come in color and black/white. In this picture Isla is using an apple pointer to track while "reading" the sentences on the cards. We kept them up all week and she could go read them whenever she wanted. </div>

This cat themed lunch was more about the letter c than the color red, but I did use a red plate!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I love gift cards, and I'm sure you do too! We are showing our appreciation for teachers this week over at <a href="http://www.iteachfirst.com/2015/04/100-teacher-appreciation-giveaway.html" target="_blank">iTeach First</a> by having a gift card giveaway from some of our favorite stores! We are giving away $25 gift cards from Target, Starbucks, Amazon, and Teachers Pay Teachers. 4 chances to win! Here are some things I'd love to get with these gift cards.</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Target: I think my favorite thing about Target is the dollar spot. You never know what goodies you'll find there. I love looking for seasonal math counters in the form of table scatter or mini erasers. I've also found some great nonfiction readers there! </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Starbucks: ahhhhhhhhh, Starbucks. If you're a coffee drinker, you most likely have your go-to Starbucks drink. Wouldn't it be nice to have that treat on us? If you don't drink coffee, I recommend the chocolate croissant. SUPER yummy!</div>

"A person's a person, no matter how small." - Dr. Seuss. </div>
<div>
I've been having a lot of fun introducing my daughter to the world of Dr. Seuss. Here are a couple Dr. Seuss themed activities and snacks we did this past week. </div>
<div>
<br /><div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-eLzMxgdKers/VPRg-3rqwlI/AAAAAAAABAQ/Stuxdbfk40k/s1600/Slide4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-eLzMxgdKers/VPRg-3rqwlI/AAAAAAAABAQ/Stuxdbfk40k/s1600/Slide4.JPG" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--tkGgj-L_ec/VPRg_Ezyf-I/AAAAAAAABAE/LnTwtNrHASM/s1600/Slide5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--tkGgj-L_ec/VPRg_Ezyf-I/AAAAAAAABAE/LnTwtNrHASM/s1600/Slide5.JPG" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Count and Match</div>
<div>
This was an easy game to put together! I picked up the Dr. Seuss cards at the Target Dollar Spot, and made the mat with construction paper and a sharpie. I gave Isla one card at a time. She counted the number of Seuss characters on the card and then put the card under the matching number. The card set came with numbers up to 20, so this game can easily be differentiated. I plan on laminating the cards before we use them again. I think we will get a lot of use out of these and I don't want them to get destroyed! </div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7sCOHlOEtmw/VPRg-UC-YuI/AAAAAAAABAA/u5RguiEBQcY/s1600/Slide3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7sCOHlOEtmw/VPRg-UC-YuI/AAAAAAAABAA/u5RguiEBQcY/s1600/Slide3.JPG" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Green Eggs and Ham Counting Games</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Target conveniently has 12 packs of green plastic eggs in their Easter section, which is where I got these. We tried out different ways to play with them. In the picture above Isla is opening up the eggs and counting how many hams are inside. I only put between 1-5 hams in each egg. The hams are from some clip art I had. (My clip art collection is so big now I never know what I may find!)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The biggest hit was simply transferring the eggs back and forth between the egg carton and a bowl. She LOVED this game! She is very into "I do it!" these days, and this was a game she could enjoy independently. It went on for quite a while. A great way to practice one to one correspondence!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Cat in the Hat Pizza</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I knew I wanted to make a Cat in the Hat Pizza, but couldn't find an example with a cat anywhere online. So, I made up this pizza design myself! I used a crescent roll for the the dough and cut it into the cat in the hat shape. Then I added tomato sauce, some Italian seasoning, and covered it with mozzarella cheese. I used pepperoni for the hat and olives for the face. When I showed Isla she knew exactly who it was, so I guess that means I did a good job. It was easy to make and didn't take long at all!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uF-T0gZspQU/VPRg-USLZdI/AAAAAAAAA_4/-bwV-lBWiXE/s1600/Slide2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-uF-T0gZspQU/VPRg-USLZdI/AAAAAAAAA_4/-bwV-lBWiXE/s1600/Slide2.JPG" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Cat in the Hat Snack</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I saw these cat hats somewhere (I don't remember where), using a lollipop stick to hold the strawberries and bananas together. I had pretzel sticks so I used those instead and added a blueberry for the face. Then added a few colored goldfish crackers to it and it was done! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I hope you have a great time celebrating the great Dr. Seuss!</div>

Lots of snowman themed activities and the letter s. Here's a look at what we did:<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cAJ9it-KqCk/VMxzMdHmYEI/AAAAAAAAA98/v6l8W8yhlpI/s1600/Slide6.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cAJ9it-KqCk/VMxzMdHmYEI/AAAAAAAAA98/v6l8W8yhlpI/s1600/Slide6.JPG" height="300" width="400" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Snowman Color Sort</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For this snowman color sort activity we used pompoms, a clothes pin, a tea strainer spoon and the snowman color sorting mat (included in the download below). I gave Isla both a clothes pin and a tea strainer spoon for picking up the pompoms and she mostly used the spoon. I liked that both options were good for building fine motor skills, and using them made it more fun! She practiced naming each color and played this for quite a while! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-msa4zB9-Bqg/VMxzL9_-rtI/AAAAAAAAA-A/XLP73CDTCRg/s1600/Slide4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-msa4zB9-Bqg/VMxzL9_-rtI/AAAAAAAAA-A/XLP73CDTCRg/s1600/Slide4.JPG" height="300" width="400" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Dot the Letter Ss</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Once again Isla LOVED dotting the letters! This activity was great for recognizing the letters and practicing saying the letter's sound. "When you find an s, say it's sound!" </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Stamp the Letter</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I looked ALL OVER for my snowflake stamp, and it's still nowhere to be found :(. Any who, Isla didn't notice or care what the stamp was. She was just happy to stamp! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Q-tip Painting the Letter S</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For this we used washable Crayola paint. She loved it! This was the first time she ever really got to paint. The idea of painting the letters was abandoned after about 8 seconds, but she had a great time!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Snowman Sensory Play</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
When I found this idea on Pinterest I thought, 'How PERFECT! Isla will <i>love</i> it! It will be so fun!'. So... you see the picture above? That's as much that little had ever touched the "snow". She absolutely refused to give it a go. I had to really convince her to even do that much, lol! But if you're interested in giving it a try, you can check out the link and how to <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/pin/273523377344766214/" target="_blank">HERE</a>. <div>

<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I made this snack using banana for the bodies, pretzels for the arms, raisins for the eyes and buttons, and carrots for the noses. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Snowman Pizza</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Just looking at this pizza makes me want another one! I rolled out a can of crescent rolls and cut out the snowman shape (adding the cut off pieces back into the snowman). Then I spread tomato sauce all over and sprinkled it with Italian seasoning. Next I added shredded mozzarella cheese. I used olives for the eyes, mouth and buttons. The nose and scarf are orange, yellow and red bell peppers. Super yummy!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Snowman Pancakes</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Our week wouldn't have been complete without these snowman pancakes. I free handed the snowman shape on the griddle. The eyes, mouth and buttons are raisins. The nose is a slice of strawberry. The snow is banana and the scarf is a slice of bacon. I made the bacon bend like a scarf while it was fresh out of the oven and pliable. We topped this off with some organic maple syrup from Trader Joe's. I don't know about you, but using organic maple syrup somehow made me feel much better about the sugar that's in it! </span>Haha<span style="text-align: left;">! I've seen lots of snowman pancakes that use whipped cream and chocolate chips (which sounds </span>delish<span style="text-align: left;">!), but I wanted to do a version with less sugar. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I hope these ideas and printables will help you in your home or classroom. Do you have any snowman activities you like to do with toddlers? I'd love to hear about it! </div>

It HAD to be used today. So I made this little MLK Jr. themed letter m page for my daughter. We are all about learning the alphabet these days! Hearing her say "Martin! /m/-/m/-/m/!" totally melted my heart. She loved stamping Martins inside of the m. If you don't have a stamp like this, (because really, how many people have MLK Jr. stamps lying around?)I would use scrap pieces of paper and glue them onto the m. You could also pick a color to reinforce your color of the week.

We also talked about who Dr. King was and read the book <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Martins-Big-Words-Martin-Luther/dp/1423106350/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1421737431&sr=1-1&keywords=martins+big+words" target="_blank"><i>Martin's Big Words</i> by Doreen Rappaport</a>.

AND I'm going to blog about it! I'm all about themes, and because it's January I decided to start with polar animals. It's always been one of my favorite units to teach my students about! I also decided to focus on one letter a week. My daughter's name is Isla, so we started with the letter Ii.<br />
<br />

<br />
This was our first attempt at using <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Do-Dot-Marker-Rainbow-6-pack/dp/B00004W3Y4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1421161086&sr=8-1&keywords=do+a+dot+markers" target="_blank">Do-A-Dot markers</a>. It was a BIG hit! She loved finding all of the letters in the igloo. Each time she did a dot I prompted her to say the sound for i. You can download this page and a few others we did this week by clicking <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9HlWbkBjgE3UDlzcmFVQXNEekk/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank">HERE</a>. (We also did the included penguin page and polar bear puzzles, but I forgot to take pictures of those in action. I laminated both of those pages and printed the polar bear puzzles on card stock for durability.)<br />
<br />

This is one of the other letter i pages I made. I laminated it so we could use it over and over again. The markers we used are <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Crayola-Washable-Markers-Assorted-98-5812/dp/B006UBM6MI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1421161140&sr=8-1&keywords=crayola+washable+dry+erase+markers" target="_blank">Crayola Washable Dry Erase Markers</a>. They aren't stinky like Expo markers and they are WASHABLE! I modeled how to write the capital and lowercase i, then let her practice on her own - she felt like such a big girl :). This was a quick activity but she asked to do it every day!<br />

I printed out the penguins(sticking with the polar animals theme), laminated them and taped them to the baskets. This is a game I kept out all week and she kept going back to it. I also had her practice naming the colors and shapes as she sorted them.</span></div>

This idea came from <a href="http://www.notimeforflashcards.com/2013/01/arctic-ice-sensory-play.html" target="_blank">No Time for Flash Cards</a> and I couldn't wait to try it. It was so easy to prep! I used a blue paper bin from the Target Dollar Spot. I filled the bin with a few inches of water and then put a small bowl in it(for the ocean) and filled the bowl with potatoes so it wouldn't float. Then I placed it in the freezer overnight. When I took it out the next day the bowl was stuck in the ice, so I filled the bowl with some lukewarm water and let it sit for a few minutes until the ice around it melted enough for the bowl to come out. I added a little water to the ocean for the animals to swim in. The ocean was her favorite part of the activity. All of the animals went swimming! She also liked breaking off small pieces of ice as they melted away from the ocean and eating it(so I'm really glad I cleaned the bin before hand!). We added a couple ice cubes for "ice bergs" and she loved that as well. You can see in one corner of the bin the ice was raised and the animals were able to slide down it. I don't know how that happened or I would recreate it because she also had a lot of fun with that part. We talked about the names of the animals and their colors, how some animals live on land and others in the water, and talked about cold vs. hot. The animals are from the Toob Penguins and Artic sets(which are <i>crazy</i> expensive on Amazon today so I didn't include a link). Did you know they sell Toob Animals at Michaels Craft Stores? You can use a coupon and get them 40-50% off! </div>

SNACKS. So while I was searching Pinterest for polar animal ideas, I came across these cute snack ideas. How could I resist? The <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/273523377344692991/" target="_blank">polar bears</a> were SO easy and quick to make - she loved them! The <a href="http://family.disney.com/recipes/club-penguin-bento-box" target="_blank">penguin sandwich</a> (from Disney) took more time, but when my daughter saw her lunch she GAVE IT A HUG! Literally, she hugged her plate - lol! Made the time it took to make it all worth it. The penguin cup was a gift from her aunt last year(from Target). <br />
<br />
That's a little bit about our week. I took more pictures of our letter Ii activities, but can't find them so I will be better about where I put them for my next post! It you'd like to see more polar animal ideas you can check out my January Pinterest board by clicking <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/lboriack/january/" target="_blank">HERE</a>.<br />

Coming up next....the letter s, as in s is for snowman! Check back next week to read all about it!<br />

<span style="font-family: HelloMillionaire; font-size: 18pt;">My goal this month has been to do a fun
holiday project or craft each week with my daughter. There are so many AMAZING
activities on Pinterest, but many of them were too much work for my brain to
think about right now. I wanted to do
things that were easy prep, low mess and fast clean up. So what have we done? Here’s a look:</span></div>
<div style="direction: ltr; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-top: 0pt; unicode-bidi: embed; word-break: normal;">
<span style="font-family: HelloMillionaire; font-size: 18pt;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="direction: ltr; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-top: 0pt; unicode-bidi: embed; word-break: normal;">
<span style="font-family: HelloMillionaire; font-size: 18pt;">This was really easy to prep! Everything I needed I had in the house. I cut out the tree shape, trunk and star from
construction paper(freehand). I used
craft scissors to cut the tree to give it a little pizzazz. Then grabbed a handful of fruit loops for
Isla (my daughter, 22 months) to glue on the tree like ornaments. I put a dab of white glue on the tree and
then she put a fruit loop on the glue.
It was a quick project to complete but she had a lot of fun! </span></div>

<div style="direction: ltr; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-top: 0pt; unicode-bidi: embed; word-break: normal;">
<span style="font-family: HelloMillionaire; font-size: 18pt;">I picked up the foam train shape and
foam stickers at the dollar tree. We
started with spelling out her name. I
gave her one letter at a time for her to place on the
train. We practiced saying the names and
sounds of each letter while we were at it!
(Lots of fun to be had with those foam letters.) Then she picked out the foam shapes she
wanted, I peeled off the backing and she placed them where she wanted. Both the shapes and the letters were sticky,
so no glue mess to worry about. We have
a lot of leftovers so she can do this several times over!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: HelloMillionaire; font-size: 18pt;">This counts right? ;) I got this Christmas coloring book at the
dollar tree. She really enjoyed coloring a few pages and then she was over it
for the day. But it’s a good sized coloring
book so we have gotten it out quite a bit this month. A quiet, non-messy, no prep activity is
always welcome in this house! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: HelloMillionaire; font-size: 18pt;">A family tradition! Every year my family gets together to make </span><span style="font-family: HelloMillionaire; font-size: 18pt;">g</span><span style="font-family: HelloMillionaire; font-size: 18pt;">ingerbread
houses. This was Isla’s first time
making a gingerbread house. My sister
premade the houses so that they were ready to be decorated. Every one brought candy and went to town
decorating. I put the frosting on for
Isla and she picked out the candy and stuck it on her house. She didn’t eat as much of the candy as I
thought she would have, but I think that’s only because she tried one of those
red oblong candies and then decided she didn’t want to try any more candy, </span><span style="font-family: HelloMillionaire; font-size: 18pt;">haha</span><span style="font-family: HelloMillionaire; font-size: 18pt;">! If you are going to make gingerbread houses
be sure to check out your local 99 cent store.
They have </span><span style="font-family: HelloMillionaire; font-size: 18pt;">Christmas tree and </span><span style="font-family: HelloMillionaire;"><span style="font-size: 24px;">Santa</span><span style="font-size: 18pt;"> shaped

My daughter is 19 months old, so I keep things really simple. I pre-cut the leaves, trunk, and sun from construction paper. My daughter (with help) used a glue stick to glue each piece. After she put the glue on, I placed them on the blue paper and she patted down the pieces. For the apples we used red Fruit Loops. I put a spot of white glue on the tree and then she put the "apple" on the glue - this was her favorite part! For the sun rays, I put white glue around the sun and she placed the rays on the glue. Fast and simple! It's now hanging on our refrigerator and I love looking at it every day.<br />

<br />
This project would be great for primary grades and would be a cute classroom display! Here are some more ideas for this project:<br />
- use red, green and yellow "apples"<br />
- have students write the number of apples they have on the trunk<br />
-use two colors of apples and have students write number sentences to go with it<br />

Along with displaying some great resources, the booth is giving out GOODY BAGS of fabulous teacher resources. Supplies are limited so be sure to stop by ASAP.

I'm also having a sale in my <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Laura-Boriack-Over-The-1st-Grade-Rainbow" target="_blank">TpT store</a> during the conference (Wednesday-Friday). Now is a great time to grab my blends units. I'm currently in the process of updating them and when finished these units will be double their current size, and the price will be adjusted accordingly. These units are getting complete makeovers and many activities will be added! My <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Triple-Blends-Activity-Pack-398984" target="_blank">Triple Blends</a> unit has already been updated so that will give you an idea of what the other three blends units will include when updated. Click <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Laura-Boriack-Over-The-1st-Grade-Rainbow/Category/Blends" target="_blank">HERE</a> to check them out!

I wanted to share some great books for those that have a toddler in their life. My daughter who is now 16 months(sniff), is going through a stage where she is OBSESSED with books. Sounds like every teachers dream right? Ya....that novelty wears off after reading the same book 63 times by noon - EVERY DAY. Ok, so I actually love that she loves to read and of course I'm trying to foster that love of reading. But I have been guilty of hiding a few books that I desperately need a break from! (There goes my mom of the year award ;)<br />
<br />
Some books my daughter really loves right now are lift-the-flap board books by Karen Katz. They are super cute and Isla LOVES to lift each flap. They are pretty sturdy, but I noticed she tore one of the flaps when she was "reading" by herself. Nothing a little tape can't fix! A great part of these books is the prepositional language - behind, under, in, etc. Here are the books we have:<br />

I love, love, LOVE this time of year! With Easter fast approaching, I thought I'd share some posts I did a couple years ago. Enjoy!<br />

My class was so happy that we got to hang out with our 3rd grade buddies two days in a row. We started this project yesterday and finished today. We stuffed them with grass, jelly beans and a chocolate. I love the way they turned out! And all the students had so much fun making them!<br />
*I've added this project as a FREEBIE in my TpT store, click below to grab the directions and bunny ear templates. If you download, please leave some love! Thanks!<br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 18pt;">I had students draw a picture of the Easter Bunny to put
above their writing. On the left I plan to add a picture I took of each
student today. I had them wear bunny ears while holding an Easter basket
and some carrots. The pictures are SO CUTE. :)</span></div>

<span style="text-align: left;">I read this little book that comes with this plush leprechaun. This book is so fun because would you believe it, that leprechaun is <i>real</i>?! Every morning for about a week, the students discover that the leprechaun has moved to a new spot in the classroom (always somewhere out of reach). The night before St. Patrick's Day we set a trap for the leprechaun and try to catch him. But alas, he is always too tricky for us. Before he leaves our classroom for good he makes a memorable exit. On St. Patrick's Day students walk into the classroom to find posters hung upside down, chairs turned over, table baskets on the wrong tables, and all sorts of leprechaun mischief. Yes, it's wild when the students see what's happened to the classroom but it's one of the best days of the whole year. Here is a link to the book at <a href="http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-very-little-leprechaun-tale-yvonne-carroll/1003886355?ean=9781565547810" target="_blank">Barnes and Noble</a>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">One fun thing that students can't get over is seeing leprechaun footprints all over the classroom tables. Unfortunately I can't find a single picture of them, but I will tell you how I make them. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">1. Clench your fist and dip the pinky side of your fist into green tempura paint.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">2. Stamp your fist where you want the foot prints.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">3. Dip a few of your fingers in the paint and stamp at the top of the footprint for toes.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Now you have leprechaun footprints! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Sometimes the leprechaun will leave a note for the class and on lucky years (when I can find them) he will leave the students each a chocolate coin. The last time I found them they were at Cost Plus World Market.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">I always encourage students to wear green on St. Patrick's Day, but if they don't I'm ready to hand out green <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Sticko-52-00950-Large-Shamrock-Stickers/dp/B004KEYEG8" target="_blank">shamrock stickers</a>! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To help us get in the leprechaun spirit, we make leprechaun hats and beards. This picture is from several years ago and doesn't do these justice. They are adorably hilarious to see on the students and they have so much fun with them!</div>

This year I decided to expand the leprechaun fun and put together an All About Leprechauns unit! The unit includes the directions and templates for the leprechaun hats and beards, an original book about leprechauns, leprechaun writing resources and more!

I've put together some cute Groundhog Day songs I've enjoyed teaching my students over the years and wanted to share them with you. Each song is in color and black/white. I figured you can use the color versions for projecting on an interactive whiteboard and the black/white versions for students to have their own copy. Click on the picture below to grab them!

I love organization, but when it comes to my desk I'm not always great at keeping it up. My desk at home needed some major help. I had the old desk since I was in HIGH SCHOOL! <gasp> At the time I'm sure I thought it was great, but 14 years <i>after</i> high school.....<strike>not so much</strike> not at all. I've kept the desk in our spare bedroom where, thankfully, no one really had to see it. But then we had our daughter and the spare bedroom became a nursery. That meant that the desk had to come out into the open(our living room), no longer hidden from society. I put off getting a new desk for a loooooong time. Why? Mostly because I didn't feel like spending the money on a new one when the old one was still functional - although incredibly small and <i>ugly</i>. I HATED looking at that thing, and then my daughter discovered the cords that were crudely exposed behind/under it (nightmare!). So, happy Black Friday to me - I got a NEW desk!!!! I found a good deal online and I'm very happy with my purchase. It has lots of space and storage - just what I needed!<br />

Another organizational purchase I made recently was this <a href="https://www.erincondren.com/" target="_blank">Erin Condren Take Note! Notebook</a>. It is PERFECT for what I need. I got it with a calendar and I'm using it to keep track of all of my project ideas for Tpt/TN, blogging, and of course family stuff. After I've used it for a couple of months I will be giving it a review here on my blog and let you know how it's working for me. I <i>love</i> looking at it. Can you guess why? ;)<br />

Something that I did last year for my classroom was make these binders for each month. I keep most of the seasonal things I use in them. While I still keep a lot of things in a file cabinet, these binders have been a handy addition for keeping organized. I found most of the binders I use on clearance at Walmart after their back to school sales. Aren't the covers cute?! <br />

Angry at that pesky white border? Here is the solution! I had a customer ask how to do this and wanted to share with everyone.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Go to File, Print. Then follow these steps:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bd8JIjRZKKk/UnSGR3Om0uI/AAAAAAAAAlA/DUyj4bXXHb4/s1600/Slide1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bd8JIjRZKKk/UnSGR3Om0uI/AAAAAAAAAlA/DUyj4bXXHb4/s320/Slide1.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First, select the slides you want to print. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RnHOXKJEE6k/UnSGUreDdWI/AAAAAAAAAlI/lea6OWlrge0/s1600/Slide2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RnHOXKJEE6k/UnSGUreDdWI/AAAAAAAAAlI/lea6OWlrge0/s320/Slide2.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then select 'Scale to fit paper'. Now you are ready to print! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hAOZuRDDVYY/UnSGUkj2U-I/AAAAAAAAAlM/XqOKeX0vzFE/s1600/Slide3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-hAOZuRDDVYY/UnSGUkj2U-I/AAAAAAAAAlM/XqOKeX0vzFE/s320/Slide3.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
By the way, did you know you don't HAVE to print in color? I save on ink by printing mostly in grayscale. Just select 'Grayscale' from the drop down menu (shown above).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I hope these tips help you out! Happy printing!</div>

Every year I do some thematic teaching about apples and Johnny Appleseed. I do some in September because September=apples right? I also do apples when we get to the Johnny Appleseed story in our anthology books later in the year. There are so many things you can do with apples! Here are some pics from an 'Our Favorite Apple' graphing activity we did last year.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-KuagiXT2Vtc/UijCsO1745I/AAAAAAAAAiw/2YGIn641H80/s1600/Picture7.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-KuagiXT2Vtc/UijCsO1745I/AAAAAAAAAiw/2YGIn641H80/s1600/Picture7.png" width="193" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For this activity we used red, green and yellow apples. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rc0HnIyXlJI/UijCjyyE5ZI/AAAAAAAAAik/iyX-SRNa73I/s1600/Picture9.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="295" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rc0HnIyXlJI/UijCjyyE5ZI/AAAAAAAAAik/iyX-SRNa73I/s1600/Picture9.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That handy dandy contraption is the best! Why did I ever try to slice apples without it?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yLzLbwhUH_Q/UijDkZmbwsI/AAAAAAAAAi8/L28BHmypB8o/s1600/Picture13.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="241" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-yLzLbwhUH_Q/UijDkZmbwsI/AAAAAAAAAi8/L28BHmypB8o/s1600/Picture13.png" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Students getting their apples for the big taste test! Then they got to vote for their favorite apple. We recorded, graphed and discussed our apple data. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I took a picture of each student wearing a Johnny Appleseed hat while holding their favorite apple. The idea for this picture was something I found on Pinterest last year. (I don't remember where it came from but if you know please comment so I can add the link.) The poster this little Johnny is standing in front of is one I made for vocabulary in our anthology story about Johnny Appleseed. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I ended up having a few extra apples left over so I turned them into "Golden Apple Awards". Boy oh boy did the students want those apples! It was a great motivator for everything that day :) If you're interested in the "Our Favorite Apple" activity I included it in my latest unit <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Johnny-Appleseed-Apple-FUN-Writing-Math-Science-860503" target="_blank">Johnny Appleseed & Apple FUN!</a> It includes fun writing, math and science activities.

My professor said "This is the most important class you will take to become a teacher." I don't know if I believed him then, but I sure do now! It would be impossible for me and my students to be successful in the classroom without good classroom management. As with everything in my classroom, my management has changed over the years as I try new things and try to perfect the art. When I think of classroom management, this comes to mind:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-BV2nfhm_ndE/Ug5crwhjPMI/AAAAAAAAAhQ/89oL930xCyE/s1600/Slide1.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-BV2nfhm_ndE/Ug5crwhjPMI/AAAAAAAAAhQ/89oL930xCyE/s400/Slide1.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Over the years I've gotten compliments on how my classroom "feels" when people come in to observe students learning. I'm a calm person by nature, and very organized. I believe that teachers really control that "energy" in the classroom. Students look to you -the teacher- for how to behave. It is our job to teach them how we want them to behave in our classroom. I've learned that means being absolutely EXPLICIT with EXACTLY what you want them to do. You start teaching students these things the MOMENT you first meet them. Teaching routines and procedures has a direct correlation to classroom behavior. When students know what to do and what to expect, things will run much more smoothly. Here are a few routines and procedures that I didn't realize I'd need to teach until I got my own classroom.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
How to hang up your backpack/sweaters/lunchboxes (your mom doesn't work here kids!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How to clean your table/desk (shoving everything to the back of the desk is NOT cleaning it!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How to wash your hands (without getting water ALL over the floor)</div>

You have to teach those kids EVERYTHING. <span style="color: purple;">Students may have done these things before, but they don't know how YOU want them to do it.</span> So teach them! There are so many little things they need to learn. Some of those things may take a while, or need to be retaught throughout the year. </div>

Example: How to line up to leave the room. There is that moment every year when I realize I need to tighten the reigns again. I dismiss students to line up for recess, and instead of the normal stand up, push in chairs, walking with normal chatter line up... there is a WILD stampede of six year olds knocking over a chair in their rush to get in line. The line looks like a heard of cats and the noise level reaches epic proportions. (Tell me this doesn't happen to just me???) I stand there and think "What in the world just happened?!?!?!" Solution - Operation Reteach and it goes like this: "Everyone go sit down...boys and girls that is not the way we line up for recess. Raise your hand if you can tell me how we line up. ( I call on a few students who give me the normal responses - no running, quiet, etc) Thank you, now I'm going to pick a table who can show the rest of the class how we line up. Red table is showing me they are ready. Red table when I say go I want you to stand up, push in your chairs, walk to the line with your hands behind your back and your voices off... Go. (Red table successfully lines up) Thank you red table, I like the way you pushed in your chairs, walked to the line, had your hands behind your back and your voices were off. (Then I proceed to call the other tables to the line) Thank you boys and girls, I expect that the next time we line up it will look exactly like this. This time you did a great job." Explicit teaching, modeling, and positive reinforcement. No routine or procedure is ever too small to teach. Some of the best teaching advice I ever got was "Assume they know nothing." :)</div>

Praise - When I was student teaching, my mentor teacher had me constantly practice praising the students so that it would become a habit - now it is! I remember writing "Praise" on a sticky note to help me remember to do so throughout my lessons. When I use it in my classroom it sounds like this: </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"I like the way you..."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Thank you for......"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"I see that you are....."</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

To help keep behavior in check with a behavior management system, here are a few things I've tried that have been successful.</div><br />1. Class Dojo - You can read more about how I use this in this<a href="http://overthe1stgraderainbow.blogspot.com/2012/04/class-dojo-giveaway-reminder.html" target="_blank"> previous post</a>.<br />2. Table Points<br />3. Prize Box<div>4. Class marble jar<br />

Organizing for Instruction<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted to share a quick organizing tip with you. Here is how I organize my files.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5GgbGFH9l00/Ugze_L8VEXI/AAAAAAAAAhA/Laa1WjFNvOQ/s1600/file+organization.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5GgbGFH9l00/Ugze_L8VEXI/AAAAAAAAAhA/Laa1WjFNvOQ/s1600/file+organization.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
I started these files my first year and they've evolved over the past 8 years. When I first made the files I only had the HMR 7.1 labels. That stands for Houghton Mifflin Reading Theme 7 Week 1, which is how the reading series we use is organized. Since then I've added more to the tabs to find things easier. Now they look like the picture above. I've added that weeks spelling patterns, focus vowel, word families, grammar, or anything else introduced/taught during that week. When I run across something and think, 'Hey, this is a great idea! I need to save a copy!' I head over to my files and can find where I want to save it easily. I add to the files through out the year. I try to keep everything in chronological order from the beginning of the year to the end. I keep the current file at the front and when that week is over I put it in the back of the file cabinet and the 'new' current file is in the front. I don't use everything in the files every year, but I like having an arsenal of strategies, ideas, and resources ready if I need it. This system has worked great for me and these files are by far my most valued teaching item. I hope this post has sparked an organizational idea for you.
