January Classroom Goodies & Freebies

Hello January!!!

While teachers are busy away today and tomorrow planning for Monday, I'd thought I'd drop by and share some January themed goodies and freebies with you!

Grab my New Years resolution writing frames in two levels for free! These are from my All-time Best Seller in my store!

If you're working on more/less, place value, skip counting, number order, and counting on, my January Math includes 6 centers and 12 fun worksheet printables. Check out my January Math {here}.

My scrambled sentences are a huge hit with my kiddos and provide practice with 4, 5, and 6 words sentence building for easy differentiation! Color coded also for easy organization! Check out snowy scrambled sentences {here} or see the 9-month bundle {here}. 

I've got your month covered!

Happy New Year!

Loving Spring Break this week!
Anyone else on Spring Break?

March In A Click!!

March is just a few days away, so it's time for "March In A Click." Prior to the first of each month, I post a clickable document with links to the top activities I will be doing in my classroom during the upcoming month. All you have to do is click on the activities to be taken to the activity source!

This is only an image. You will be able to download the clickable document below. 

I'm relieved that March offers a little break. I love all of the events and celebrations in February, but it is a busy busy month. All I have for March is St. Patrick's Day....of course, and a fun one.....the welcoming of spring, and World Downs Syndrome Day. 

Like last year, we'll be using my Leprechaun Kit for a secret Leprechaun visit and making Leprechaun pudding. We're also going to make the pots of gold and the Leprechaun hats.

The first day of spring is March 20th, so we'll do a couple of spring crafts on that day. We will make the coffee filter butterflies and the pom pom caterpillars. 

And please remember to honor "World Downs Syndrome Day" on March 21st. The campaign this year is again "Lots of Socks." Last year we all wore lots of crazy socks that were donated and purchased. This year I am going to buy plain white socks and let the kids decorate their own socks for this event!!! I can't wait. They will love it!

I hope you find these activities helpful and that they can simplify your planning. Download the clickable document below to access each resource in a simple click!! 

February In A Click! Let Me Plan Your Month!

February's around the corner, so it's time for "February In A Click." Prior to the first of each month, I post a clickable document with links to the top activities I will be doing in my classroom during the upcoming month. All you have to do is click on the activities you like to be taken to the activity source! 

Here's what I have planned for February! So many events in February......Groundhog Day, Valentine's Day, Dental Week, 100th Day of School (for many), Chinese New Year, President's Day!!! Am I forgetting anything?? It's a fun-filled month for sure!

Most of these activities are even free!!

We are going to do the Cherry Salad shortly before our Valentine Exchange Party and have it as a snack for the party!

Our 100th day falls on Groundhog Day, so this will be a busy day!! :) We will be doing activities from all 3 of the groundhog units you see.....and 2 of them are FREE! My "Race to 100" up top is also free!

For Chinese New Year, I'm thinking of doing rice instead of cotton balls. I was also thinking since their feasts generally consist of symbolic food.... long pasta represents long life, citrus fruit represents wealth, seafood represents good luck....and gold symbolizes good fortune, I am thinking about having a similar feast in my classroom!

If you'd like to make the Chinese New Year decoration above, here is the image "meaning good luck" that you will need.

If you'd like to use these activities, download the clickable document below to access all of them in a simple click!

Plus, don't forget to mark your calendars for this BIG event coming on Sunday!! I'll be revealing the first secret envelope right here!!!
