Summer Activity Packet Just in Time!

 
Fun in the Sun Activity Packet only $3.00 at my TpT and Teachers NB stores

Just because school is going to be over, that doesn't mean that learning has to be! I have created a cute summer activity packet just in time for the end-of-the year. Sometimes it seems like students forget almost everything they learned at school the prior year.  I think this is because kids need to be continually exposed to concepts in order to remember and make them stick.  I created this summer themed packet to give students a fun way to practice and help retain skills they have learned throughout the year.  Go check it out!

Time for Reflection and Recording Memories

I can't believe the end of school is so near. This year has been challenging to say the least. As the school year comes to an end, it is time for reflection of the good, the bad, and the ugly. I know that I am going to search for new discipline ideas, look through all the great units I purchased on TpT and over 4000 pins that I pinned on Pinterest this year (LOL), and start planning for next year. I have a great collection of teaching resources that I have filed away in my computer that I also need to revisit and organize, possibly by our 6 weeks curriculum (if they don't change it again).

As I started thinking about the end of the school year in terms of a teacher, I also started thinking about a way for my students to reflect on their year. I came up with a memory book where they can record their likes, achievements, and descriptions of their friends, their teachers, and themselves. I felt this would be a great project to end the year with. You can grab one at either my TpT or TN store for only $3.00. It's my featured item at both shops!










Happy Almost Summer!!!

Next week is Teacher Appreciation Week, and Sunday, May 6th is sure to be your lucky day! I am participating in the very first Teacher Appreciation Jackpot, an amazing "blog hop" event involving over 130 bloggers!

We wanted to show our appreciation for you in a BIG way, so we've all agreed to give away one of our TeachersPayTeachers products for free on that day! Each free gift will be valued at between $3 and $8, so the total jackpot amount is estimated to be over $500! We'll post the actual amount on Saturday, May 5th.

 PK - Grade 2 - April McNair on A Modern Teacher
Grades 3 - 6 - Laura Candler on Corkboard Connnection
Grades 7 - 12 - Adrianne Meldrum on The Tutor House.
