MAGNETIC LETTER STATION

New idea for your word study station.  Go to Walmaart or your local automotive store and pick up an oil pan sheet.  It looks like a giant cookie sheet.  Use velcro to put it on the wall in your classroom.  Fill a container with magnetic letters from the dollar store and VOILA!  You have a  magnetic letter station that they'll all be begging to use!

MOTHER'S DAY EMERGENCY KIT

This is my favorite holiday project to make.  Mothers just go crazy over this.  It's made out of lunch bags.  Click here to look

HERE'S A GREAT FREEBIE!  IT'S A POWERPOINT THAT 1ST AND 2ND GRADE TEACHERS CAN USE FOR TEACHING THE END PUNCTUATION MARKS FOR SENTENCES.  YOU CAN PRINT THE STUDENT SHEET OFF AND HAVE THEM FILL IN THE ANSWERS AS THEY FOLLOW THE POWERPOINT - THEN CHECK THEIR WORK AT THE END.

You know how your students always seem to gravitate to the computer games.  AngryBirds has become a sensation and students can't get enough of mindless games.  Well, I reward mine with free computer time, but I want them to stretch their brain.  Here's a great site for that!

I just listed a bunch of teaching resource books, bulletin board cut-outs, and reward certificates on my TPT store.  Make sure you check those out!  I'll be listing a bunch more over the next couple weeks!  You can click the store link on the right to browse.  AND I'M HAVING A SALE THIS WEEKEND!  I expect most of these items to go fast.
