Getting Ready to go back to school!

 

 

Wow! Summer for us teachers in South Georgia is almost over. Holly was away on a beach vacation so I was all alone to work for a week. I started thinking about the first week of school and wanted to update what I have for All About Me. Things start to look tired after awhile- so I modified the tree project in our Secret Life of Trees unit into a beach ball and viola! An All About Me 3-d mobile ball. I used all of the cute frames I made this summer on my bamboo tablet and turned it into a graphic organizer for easy writing. The organizer is meant for pictures to be drawn, but the kids could easily write in the frames. Then they can write about themselves on the paper with the toppers. Everyone likes talking about themselves! I plan to hang the balls all over my room. I am using curly ribbon to match my room for the streamers. Can't wait to see how cute thy are!

Ready to decorate for a new year

Wee are halfway into our summer vaca and we have been busy thinking about next year. We looked back over the school year and thought about what we needed most for common core and decided that our grammar instruction needed some sprucing up! We both love foldables, graphic organizers and interactive notebooks- so we thought we would combine them with grammar. We are too excited to teach with these materials. We have a grammar interactive notebook that we used while doing GPS, so we updated for common core. We added the anchor posters to keep us on track.

The posters are part of the Interactive Notebook set. We made them in both chevron and polka dots.

So after making them, we decided we need new alphabets to match:
