Fairy Tale Frenzy

February 26, 2014 by ·

We have been having the BEST week so far (and it’s only Tuesday) reading Fairy Tales. I think part of the reason it has been so fun is because the kiddos are familiar with the stories so we are able to dig deeper. Even though the stories are familiar, there are still so many teachable […]

Woohoo it’s almost March!!! I told my husband this morning that I feel like this winter has frozen me from the inside out. I know all of you are nodding your head in agreement. I have never been so happy to be at recess as I was last week! This week is all about Fairy […]

Make it Equal {freebie}

February 22, 2014 by ·

This past Monday, we had a faculty meeting where we got to see what our first graders are tested on in math in October. To say I (and by I…I mean all of the Kindergarten teachers) was shocked is an understatement. A lot of our kinders (and I’m sure yours too) come in barely knowing […]

Shapes All Around

February 19, 2014 by ·

This is something that I have been doing with my kiddos since I started teaching. I really enjoy teaching about shapes because it’s concrete and there is  just so much you can do with 2-D and 3-D shapes. There are also some great resources. A book that I always read to kick off 3-D shapes […]

Subtraction Freebie

February 13, 2014 by ·

I’m not going to lie. Teaching subtraction gives me gray hair. I have been doing this lesson for a few years and I come up with something new every time I try it out. I don’t think that it’s anywhere close to being perfected, but it’s a start! This year, another fab K teacher that […]

Peek at My Week

February 10, 2014 by ·

It feels good to finally have internet again. I have been on my own little island this weekend with no cable or internet. Gasp. It’s ok though because we are finally in our new house! There are still things that need to be done like sealing windows so they don’t fall out and minor things […]

Five for Friday

February 7, 2014 by ·

1. Today is the big day! We are moving…. And I’m at school. {It’s the 100th day and I just can’t let them celebrate without me!} Good thing my hubby is super reliable. Breathing in and out. I can’t talk about it for too long or my palms start to sweat, my breathing gets shallow, […]
