December?!

Oh my goodness! It has been a fast week! We had a great Thanksgiving and I think we're all still recovering from all the fun things we did together as a family! I'm thankful for these turkeys:

Turkey phonics freebie!

Happy Sunday, friends!

I'm looking at my week a little today and we will be reading Turkey Trouble, A Plump and Perky Turkey, Who Will Carve the Turkey, and an expository text on Thanksgiving. I *love* teaching about Thanksgiving! It is fun to teach about the holidays and there are SO many fun books to use!

I just wanted to share a few little freebies with you to use since time is running out of November. Do you have all of Thanksgiving week out?! I do not! 

I'm using this in intervention this week for my kiddos who are ready for it!

Word problems FREEBIE!

Happy Sunday, y'all!

I went to the grocery store just a little bit ago {my least favorite weekend chore!} and it was cuh-razy! I'm sure you've heard about this "polar vortex" that is about to hit the U.S. by Tuesday..well, when it is going to get crazy cold or snow here (which happens probably 5-6 times a year) people go nuts at the grocery store. Like, you have to wait in a line to be able to get a cart. Water, milk, and bread starts disappearing from the shelves. I'm glad I decided to go today..because tomorrow will be bananas! Does this happen where you live?! Or is it just crazy Texans?!

So...I asked you guys on my Facebook page if you would be interested in thematic addition and subtraction story problems and the answer was overwhelmingly...YES! I whipped up this little packet that will be perfect for the next few weeks. When I asked, many of you requested missing addend questions and story problems with a little more rigor. This packet covers all the bases...for K babies just beginning and 1st graders already solving story problems independently!

Verbs! {Interactive Freebie}

Happy Wednesday!

We've been working on verbs a lot the past week...and I REALLY wish I had taken more pictures of what we have done...but...fail! We have sung songs {from YouTube} about verbs, acted verbs out, made sentences with verbs and sorted them. 

I just wanted to share really quick with you guys this little interactive page that I had my kids put in their interactive notebooks today! I made this easy-peasy for my kids...today was a half day and we were already a little short on time so we added the definition to our notebooks and illustrated {and labeled what we could} 2 different verbs.
Click on the pictures to snag this little freebie up! After the thought...I decided that it would be fun to add a little bit to the interactive page and brainstorm verbs that we can do in different places at school so I added the second page. Hopefully I can get around to it with my kids! To use it, Your students will fold on the dotted line and glue the little strip to their notebook. Then, they will draw underneath the flap (much like a sticky note).

November...already?!

You guys... I swear school just started! How can it already be November?!
As I was working on my November pack I was trying to think what my kids really need to be working on at this time. I feel like we have so far to go and we're already 50 days in! There are so many things to cover! 
I think every month that I make these packets the new one becomes my favorite...I am loving those cute little Melonheadz graphics! We are beginning learning about Thanksgiving starting next week!! I can't wait to incorporate those little guys into a little reader.
