Peek at My Week {back at it}

This feels crazy going back to work! I went back for one full day before Spring Break and then it was a week off so I don’t think I was officially “back”. You are now looking at a week full of actual lesson plans written by me. I feel like I’m having to shake off […]

Five for Friday

I feel like it was just Friday…but I think my days are moving at lightening speed because this is the month I go back to school! I have so (beyond) enjoyed my time at home with little miss but I am ready to get back to school and see my kiddos! 1. This week, I […]

March Kindergarten Activities

February Math Journals {Pin it to Win It}

A big part of my math time is having the kids complete math journals. We start them in August and keep them throughout the entire year and the skills build on one another. However, I have my journals set up in folders and they have been hard for the kiddos to find the right page and […]

Minus Mustache {A Subtraction Game}

As we all know, subtraction isn’t the easiest of concepts for our kiddos to digest. We go right from teaching them how to add to blowing their minds with subtraction. While we might feel like it should be a seamless transition, it just isn’t. I would go as far as to say that it is […]

November BUILD Math Tubs

We got started on our November BUILD tubs today and I loved watching my kids transition so seamlessly this time around. Last year, since I started BUILD in December, it really took a few months for my kids to get their groove. This year, since I started in August, I feel like they really got […]
