My class looks forward to the word family of the week. They love completing various word family activities and learn so much while doing so! Before we left for spring break, we were working with the "ing" word family. We go back to school this week. This King of "ing" activity will be a great review after a nice long break!</b><br />

<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><span style="color: black;">This will be my eighth year teaching, all of which have been in K. I feel very lucky to be able to teach at the same school as my mom. She teachers second grade. Although I barely get to see her at school (we teach in a very large and still growing elementary school in northern Florida) I am still excited to be able to share our teaching experiences together.<br /> I absolutely love teaching Kindergarten and could not see myself teaching any other grade-level. My heart definitely belongs to K! I love watching my students grow as readers & writers.<br /><br /> Since I have a passion for instilling a love of reading in my students, I thought I would share some tips/ideas with all of you on how to organize your classroom library. Having a well-organized library that is not only easily accessible but also kid friendly is essential for young Kinders just learning to read. An organized and inviting classroom library leads to a love of reading books!<br /><br /> I spend quite a bit of time at the beginning of the school year going over the rules for our classroom library; how to pick "just right" books, proper book care, returning books to their correct basket, etc. It is very important to have a system put in place that will ensure the classroom library stays organized. Here are some excellent books for teaching book care. </span></b></div>

I will share with you how I sort mine. I have leveled baskets A-K all in one section of my library. I also have various baskets throughout that are sorted by either author or theme. Within each author or themed basket, I try to have the reading level listed on each book. <br /><br /> I have chosen to NOT separate my books by fiction & non-fiction. Since I do have a large library this would be somewhat difficult for me. I also like for my students to know that texts on the same topic, such as Fire Safety can be fiction as well as informational. I do however, label all of my non-fiction texts with a label that my students can easily see when choosing books. You can snag these non-fiction sticker labels </b></span><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B65wpXNM4UHzWjRBRmd1VlpoUGs/view?usp=sharing"><span style="color: blue;"><b>here!</b></span></a></span></div>

These book basket labels help make book shopping faster and easier! Each individual book contains a smaller label that matches its basket label (printed on small mailing labels). I believe that this is a key component to any organized classroom library. This is essential, especially in Kindergarten. These small sticker labels have been a time saver for sure! My students know just the right basket to return their books to.

It's that time again to start
preparing for back to school. My living room is officially packed with books,
paper, binders, bins and tons of other back to school things. <br />
<br />
The first week of school I send home this change of clothing letter attached
with a zipper bag. I purchase the zipper bags for $1 at the Dollar Tree. Also
included are mini sheets to send home with a student when an accident occurs. I
print these on bright colored paper and check off the items the student needs
to bring back to school the following day. <br />
<br />

I started selling on TPT about three years ago and this was one of my first products. These two products are great for K-1 students. They are aligned to the Common Core Standards and the prompts included cover each of the CC math standards. Math journals are a great way for students to record their math work and thinking. I am pleased with my math journal cover makeover! Interested in either of these products..check them out here:<br />

This unit is perfect for Spring! The unit contains 18 playdoh mats in the spring theme. Many of the mats offer two versions for differentiating. I found this very helpful when I first tried it out with two of my students. They love reading the instructions and following the directions to complete the mat. <br />
<br />

This mat was a favorite of all of my girls. They thought it was so cool to add clouds and a heart to the rainbow!<br />

<br />
One of my students that just started to read was so proud of himself that he was able to read this mat on his own and complete it. He had so much fun adding two flowers and a hat to this mat. <br />

I tried to come up with something for the kiddos to do in the morning while I unpack their supplies, I decided to buy each student a tub of Play doh (0.50 a tub at Walmart). I also printed out and laminated their names for them to manipulate their Play doh with. This will help with those fine motor skills while also helping them learn to spell, recognize and write their name. I plan to use these in centers as well. </div>

If you are like me you are a collector of children's books. Sometimes I think I have way too many, but yet I continue to buy buy buy! I am running out of room to house my books!!! I am lucky to have built in storage shelves in my classroom to store many of my books. <br />
<br />
So, I recently jazzed up my classroom library with new library labels I created. Here are some pics of my classroom library:<br />

I have made these library labels in various colors and themes. I have included 220 labels. These labels are a great way to spice up your classroom library. It is also a great way to keep your library neat and organized.<br />
<br />

I have also created book stickers to go on each individual book. These book stickers match up to each and every classroom library label. My Kindergarteners have no problem locating the correct bin books go in. I start the school year off by going over the importance of taking care of books and teach the students how to put books back in their proper place. I tell my students, "Every book has a place". They actually take pride in knowing how to manage our classroom library. <br />
<br />

Students need many opportunities to write in mathematics and math journals can help you do just that! Journaling can be done as a review, warm-up, independent work, closing, or homework activity. <br /><br /> These math journal prompts are a great way to motivate reluctant students and strengthen their love for math while deepening their understanding of these very important skills. These prompts require students to organize, clarify, and reflect on their ideas. These particular math prompts are a great way to challenge young students minds. <br />
<br />
You can check these prompts out by clicking on the picture below. You can also download a preview with 10 free prompts. <br />

Two years ago I created 180 Kindergarten math journal prompts for Kindergarten and have had much success using these prompts with my own Kindergarteners. They love to pull there journals out at the beginning of our math lesson each day. They look forward to using their math journals and discussing their thinking with their classmates. <br />

This unit is great for young learners to understand that most characters in the books they are reading have problems and that those problems have solutions. This unit is easy enough for Kindergarten, but also challenges older students to think and come up with multiple solutions to various problems. Check this unit out by clicking on any of the pictures below. <br />

</div>
Happy New Year's Everyone!!! I can't believe it is 2014. I have been teaching Kindergarten now for five years and still loving every minute of it!<br />
<br />
I am sure many of you are back to work next week just as I am. I have two days with no kids (planning day and inservice day-Fun stuff!!). I also have my final observation for the year the week following my return from break. I have been busy preparing for that and I think I am just about ready. <br />
<br />
I have been working on a lot of units I plan on using with my students. I have a very bad habit of starting a unit, almost finishing it and then moving on to something else without fully finishing it. My New Year's Resolution for this year is to finish EVERYTHING I start. <br />
<br />
I will be following through with my resolution and finishing up a 3D Math unit that I started last year around this time. I will be using this unit for my upcoming observation. My kiddos LOVE LOVE LOVE shapes. We finished 2D shapes before break and they are very excited to learn all about 3D shapes. <br />
<br />
I have some fun activities planned. The 3D shapes food mystery bags are always a HUGE HIT!! I just finished shopping today for the food.. ice cream cones, caramel candies, cube ice gum, cinnamon sticks, gumballs, donut holes, bugles, candy corn, croutons, ho ho's, combos, marshmallows and more!! <br />
<br />
I recently posted these shape posters. Check them out by clicking on the picture below. <br />

<br />
I also just finished my New Year's unit that I am very excited about doing the week we return from break. It is jam packed with New Year's activities all of which are aligned to the Common Core Standards. You can check the unit out by clicking on the pictures below. <br />

My kiddos are going to be so excited tomorrow! Our classroom shelf elf is packaged up and ready to be delivered...before placing it in the freezer that is to assure it arrives nice and cold from the North Pole!<br />
<br />
Last year my class voted on the name Jingle Bell Rock..I can't wait to see the names my class comes up with this year- Kids are so darn creative! <br />
<br />
I created this unit to go along with our classroom elf. There is a journal that is to be used daily until your elf makes his/her way back to the North Pole in time for Christmas. I have also included tons of activity pages, math prompts, graphic organizers, elf letters, an elf craft, plus much more!<br />
<br />

They LOVED this book. This book is great to teach a wide variety of skills; Compare and contrast, main character, setting, problem, solution, and much more! I created this craftivity to go along with this book. The activities include labeling pages, math journal prompts, graphic organizers and more!<br />
