Reading Strategy Freebie!

Hi everyone! Can you believe Halloween is next week? I can't believe how fast the month is flying by. I am really excited for November for two reasons. 1. My hubby and I are going to a Michael Buble Concert and 2. My college boy will be home for Thanksgiving break. Yay!

Does your school allow Halloween costumes at school? Our school does as long as there are no masks or fake weapons. This year we are planning a First Grade costume parade.

We are hoping for nice weather. Where we live in Southern Utah we have very unpredictable weather. We sometimes have pretty nice weather for Halloween but have also had years where there was a good amount of snow on the ground. Crossing fingers for the former rather than the latter!

Here is a picture of the trees in our front yard:

I also have a freebie to share.

Have a great night!

AmaZIng FiRsT GraDeRs and Poster Freebie for SH, CH, TH

Wow! Can you believe it . . .here I am 2 days in a row! I am actually about to go to bed, I am so sleepy tonight. We had a really busy weekend around the house and an even busier Monday at school. I have to tell you about this cute little class (all 26 of them) I was a couple of minutes after the bell getting into the classroom because I had to get a couple of kids from the cafeteria that were finishing breakfast, WELL, I walked into the classroom and all children were in their squares on the rug and they had started the QuIeT GaMe, on their own, as in without. me. there. 

I was ecstatic!

 Isn't that the most awesome thing ever!?

Gosh, I am so proud of them.

Anyway, we are learning the Phonics Dance and have been working on SH, CH and TH. I made these posters tonight that I am printing off at half size.

I will show you tomorrow or the next day what I am going to do with them . . .

Good Morning Gang! I hope you are enjoying a lazy Sunday. I have a varied list of things to tell you about today.

I am so excited to be a contributor to Classroom Freebies Too! This is a great and ALWAYS free resource. You can check it out here: Classroom Freebies Too!




I found a new book over the weekend! I know, I hope you own stock in Amazon, ;) Here it is:

I am so excited to dive into this book this week. 

P.S. The super large sticky notes they are referring to in the book are also available on Amazon also!!!

 I found something new to organize my office stuff. I used to use a cardboard "bankers box" for each month that we are in school. I would store content specific books, files and projects in each one for that particular month. These were at Walmart last night: I am going to try it out today or tomorrow and let you know how it works out . . .

They aren't a big as it appears in the picture. 

Measurements are 29 X 18 X 13

 I have a brand new design over on my personal blog! I did it myself with photos I took around our house! Yay! You can come check it out here:

 I will be putting a Halloween Word Art Freebie on that blog in the next day or two, so be sure to check back! I found some super cute new fonts!

This week in school, our class is continuing to learn about pumpkins. We are going to a pumpkin patch. I am sure you can imagine how excited the class is about that!
  Do you go to a pumpkin patch at your school?

Have a good Monday . . .
