A throw back to earlier this summer on this #teachertraveltuesday 🌴 🏖

My husband and I got away for four nights in June. It was amazing and much needed after last school year!

Have you had a chance to travel this summer?

I’ll never go back to morning work worksheets again!

A few years ago, I noticed my kinders were really struggling with fine motor skills. So I decided to swap out the traditional morning worksheet for hands-on, STEAM-based activities that integrated fine motor skills with a math or literacy skill. The benefits have been endless! It’s such a fun and engaging way for the kids to start each day.

You can read more about how we start our mornings on the blog!

How do you begin your day?

Dear Summer, please slow down!

After the Fourth of July, summer always seems to fly by! We start back pretty early this year, so I’m trying to enjoy every minute with my husband and kids. My husband and I got away in June for a few nights, and we spent a week at the beach with our family this July. My girls are on the swim team, so we spend a lot of time at the pool. My son is almost swimming on his own. As much as I love teaching, I’m always sad when summer comes to an end.

What’s the best thing you’ve done this summer and when do you go back?

Getting Ready for Kindergarten. How do I get my ch

Getting Ready for Kindergarten. How do I get my child ready for kindergarten?

If only I had a dollar for every time I've been asked this question! I wanted to design a resource that would help children not only get ready for kindergarten but also support them throughout the entire kindergarten year.

My Kindergarten Readiness Binder includes 130 pages of activities that focus on kindergarten readiness skills, name writing, fine motor skills, letters and sounds, number recognition, number writing, number sense PLUS sentence writing and word building units for when your learner is ready. Each unit comes with parent tips. You'll also get flash cards and supplemental materials for sight words, letters, numbers, and more!

Simply print and place the pages into sheet protectors to create Write and Wipe activities that can be used again and again with a dry erase marker.

This resource is for you if you are:
❤️ a parent with a child entering kindergarten
🧡a parent homeschooling a kindergartener
💛 a teacher looking to send home material to help parents support their children
💚 a tutor looking for materials to help incoming and current students

You can find this new resource in my TPT store!

Somebody pinch me. I must be dreaming!

If you had told me when I started teaching that my classroom would be featured by @carsondellosa, I wouldn’t have believed it. I have used their products in my classroom since the very beginning when I had owls, frogs, and bees as my themes! To work with them and share their products and @schoolgirlstyle ‘s collections is seriously a dream come true for me!

I opened this email today, and it made my heart so happy! This is a pic from my Math Center. You can see more in my IGTV video.

Now to decide which collection to use this year. They are all so beautiful - I’m having a tough time deciding!

Crossing things off the Back to School to-do list…

I just setup my parent-teacher communication platform with @classtagme in less than 10 minutes! I love ClassTag because it’s like having a virtual assistant at your fingertips. Everything you need to share and communicate with parents is all in one place. Create announcements, share photos and videos, request supplies, create volunteer signups, and even schedule conferences. Teachers earn coins for communicating with parents, which can be redeemed for classroom supplies.

Parents choose how they want to receive messages via text or email, and they don’t even have to download the app.

Head to my stories to learn more!

Spent the past week in Sandbridge, VA with my favorite four people. I’m soaking in every minute with my family this summer. It’s going way too fast as usual!

Where are your teacher travels taking you this summer?
