Reading is Thinking

Readers in your small group or during Daily 5 Read to Self can use these mini classroom display posters to show their thinking while they are reading.   Students can use the symbols on sticky notes to show their thinking and stick them in their books while reading.  This product is a great way to show their thinking or you could add images to an anchor chart for an additional classroom display.

Check it out at my TpT store: Show Your Thinking

Off to finish lesson plans and make some fun craftivities for this week! 

Wishing everyone a great week!

First FREEBIE on TpT

Good news... I just posted my first FREEBIE on TpT!! I am so excited!  I am far from an expert, but I did teach myself to get started and I had a little help from my friends in the blogging world!

We have a field trip coming up in May, so I thought a great first product would be a simple checklist to keep track of permission slips, money turned in, school lunch orders, and chaperone contact info.  Hopefully it helps to keep things simple and to stay organized as you prep for your field trip day.

Here is the link to my store: TpT

Have a great day!

Spring Break!

Spring Break is here and I am loving every moment.  I am very lucky to have 10 tens off.  Its been a perfect time to travel to see some of my very best friends and family.  I've also been checking my things off my to do list.  I finalized my Donors Choose project and working on my TpT store.  I'll be back with updates about TpT.  I am definitely teaching myself as I go and continue to be amazed at the thousands of talented teachers out there who create.  I've also been pinning in my PJ's and have some classroom projects that I want to accomplish this week.  I'll be back with updates, but for now I am going to try my best to have a nice balance of downtime and productivity as I sip coffee in my PJ's.

Cheers to a great Spring Break!
