<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I LOVE teaching all about color words! Colors are something that all children have schema in, and I think that's why they love learning about them so much! Talking about colors also gives a lot of children opportunities to be successful!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I usually spend 2-3 weeks focusing on color words. Many of the students come in knowing their colors, but not knowing how to read the color words themselves.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I always start with our emergent storybook Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? Even though it is a pattern book, we use it as a close read for a week.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<img height="320" src="https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQSvV-Sf0vWlS5RkQf0YZgJQUPTCTbKFbN-jax_0hoxCrQmWnHmhDoonsdZ" width="263" /><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Every day, I would introduce a color word. We would start by singing the Frog Street Press Color Word songs. These are amazing and the kiddos love them! Here are a few examples of the songs :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I also have songbook versions of each song that you can have for free <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz3m-hPevqXgdGJSNHhPdXFFbGs/view?usp=sharing">here</a>!</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Then we would make a color map for each color. The kids would give their idea and I would write the word. Then, they would come up and help me with the pictures.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We also used a TON of resources from <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/True-Colors-A-Color-Word-Identification-Practice-Packet-817675">Cara Carroll's True Colors packet</a>. This AMAZING packet really gives students a ton of practice with each color/color word. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We used her emergent readers for each color (obviously it would match our color for the day!). These are a few pages of a book my student completed.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Then for morning work, my students would do a color word find (also from the True Colors pack). This was awesome practice for reading and writing each color word. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We also practiced identifying the color words by doing a sequencing/matching activity. We retold the story together, and matched the color word to the animal as the story went on. SO much fun!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">At the end of Brown Bear week, each student made their own Brown Bear book. Students got a small book with each of the pictures that the had to color the correct color. Then, they cut and glued the words to match. They turned out so cute and are a favorite for my kiddos in their independent book tubs!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">(Picture to come!)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">And since my kiddos do get so strong in reading the pattern, I usually make a class version too! I wanted to make a template for you all, but it is so personalized, you'll just have to use my idea and make it for yourself :) They kiddos could not believe they got a book about themselves!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
The next week's book in our color extravaganza was Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes! Who doesn't love Pete? (If you say you don't like him, I think my kids might stone you!)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We had a BLAST learning more about color words this week! We continued learning about a color each day. It became an exciting surprise each day when my students heard my letter each morning and learned what color we would be exploring that day!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">To assess my students in their retelling of Pete the Cat and their color word identification, we used the retelling page from this awesome FREE Pete the Cat pack! (Can you tell I'm cheap and use as many freebies as possible?? :)) My students had to cut out each retelling card, color it to match the words, and then glue them in order of the story. They turned out super cute! (Besides the brown paper...it was what we had the most of!)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">(Picture to come!)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We also got to make Pete himself! It is AMAZING how well my kiddos follow directions when they get to make something fun! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We began by discussing how when Pete stepped in something, his shoes turned that color. For example, when Pete stepped in strawberries, it turned his shoes red. So my kiddos had to think of their own idea of what Pete could step in, and what color it would turn his shoes. So of the ideas were hysterical! It was also a really great way to assess to see if my kiddos understand that concept in the book (what Pete stepped in changed the color of his shoes!).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Here are a few examples of my students finished products! They turned out even cuter then I expected. You can get your templates to create your own Pete for free <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz3m-hPevqXgZTZtcWQtaElYT3c/view?usp=sharing">HERE</a>!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Since the end of our Pete week was basically the end of our direct instruction of colors, I wanted to do a quick check at the end of the day to see how many color words my students could identify. So once again, <a href="https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B07U2jkTYFjJWkJQaUxUOW9tWDg/edit">I found this freebie Pete the Cat color book</a>. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<img alt="pete the cat shoes book.pdf - I love Pete the cat! Don't know if I'll ever be in a classroom young enough to teach him but just in case!" src="http://media-cache-cd0.pinimg.com/736x/36/6c/49/366c493d1291845362a20c0d1159bd21.jpg" height="320" width="247" /><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Students read the sentence on each page, and color the shoes to match the words. I watched to see if my students could read the words, or if they were able to look up on the word wall and use it as a resource. They actually did much better then I thought!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So this week, boy were we surprised to be reading another Pete book, Pete the Cat and His 4 Groovy Buttons. Although this book is not about colors, we are beginning to learn new word work games for color words.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">These games are from <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/True-Colors-A-Color-Word-Identification-Practice-Packet-817675">Cara Carroll's True Colors pack again</a>! This first game is a matching game. Students match the paint splotch to the color word and then complete the optional response sheet. We did this as a whole group game, and then put it at the word work center as a matching game.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Today, we worked on our predictable sentences with color words. Once again, we built the sentences together as a whole group and choral read them. Now my students will be able to try to build the sentences independently in the word work center.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">To really challenge them, we tried this True/False game. My students really had to think about what color word they were reading and if it matched the color on the ice cream cone. I had them work together with a partner next to them to decide if it was true or false. They LOVED it!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">To finish off color word fun, my students made a class book of our favorite colors! You can get the template for it here :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Are you crazy for colors?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">It is amazing how many of my kiddos have never been exposed to these classic stories before. They just thought my Papa Bear voice was phenomenal!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">During this time in my reading units, when we are close reading each emergent storybook, we are really looking for the students to get deeper into the book! We have been focusing on the aspect of retelling the book. I found a similar version to the following activity on Pinterest. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">My kiddos and I retold The Three Bears orally and I made sure they included the important parts. Then, each child took a part of the story to retell and illustrate on this large piece of construction paper. I made a big deal out of the fact that each part of the story is important (for the whiners who didn't get the part they wanted!). </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">They worked collaboratively together to finish it! I made it in the shape of a road map, so during other parts of our day (literacy centers/learning centers), my kiddos could walk the road and tell the story!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">They were so proud of their part, and it really <strike>forced </strike> slightly pushed some of my kids out of their comfort zone that normally didn't participate as much in the retelling process :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

These are some pictures of my students choosing cards, building the number with bears, deciding which has more/less, then spinning to see if the winner is the person with more/less. YES! MY KINDERS CAN DO THIS!!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So precious right? They are so proud of themselves for all the math they can do!

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This week we were doing all kinds of learning about the Three Little Pigs and Apples!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We read this version of the Three Little Pigs this week. I like it a little better than the traditional version of the story because I believe it allows for us to dig deeper into the story.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<img height="320" src="https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSxzBmckiBCNXoXM_p_BUI0OFuz1l-JJNs0DmekoofZbl3xEFVWiaFioUk3" width="253" /><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I also loved reading this version because if you are a teacher that has access to Discovery Education videos, there is one of this exact book! My kiddos freaked out when they got to watch this close read as a video at the end of the week. It was like Christmas!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">As I said above, we did a lot of deeper thinking with this book. We always talk about tough vocabulary with each close read we do. These were the words we focused on this week:</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We also got to make two fun craftivities! The first was of the last little pig. We talked about how he was SO smart and he kept tricking the wolf so he stays safe. We made our little piggy and wrote how we would trick the wolf.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-small;">I would tell the pig to dress up as the wolf.</span><br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-small;">I would jump in a barrel and run into the wolf.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp-uzQmv3gIOPE_OEpH_5z5g0vuU-Y1EIAsQYYNm5NtBeja46VPGiB85lZOKotLG-Wx04CDV2cD1IajlrByl83MUegraNKR48S2JETLW5r6kLlQFeLaxkuWrxruS5C0d0K4sxe86DuWY8/s1600/Slide14.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp-uzQmv3gIOPE_OEpH_5z5g0vuU-Y1EIAsQYYNm5NtBeja46VPGiB85lZOKotLG-Wx04CDV2cD1IajlrByl83MUegraNKR48S2JETLW5r6kLlQFeLaxkuWrxruS5C0d0K4sxe86DuWY8/s1600/Slide14.JPG" height="400" width="300" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-small;">I would still hide from the wolf.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">The kids loved thinking of how they would "trick" the wolf! But of course, we also had to make a tricky wolf! I've been trying to integrate character education into my curriculum as much as possible. So we talked about how the wolf was unkind, and how he might have been able to be friends with the pigs if he was nice. So we made our wolf craftivity, and inside the mouth, the kiddos drew a way the wolf could be nice to the pigs.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-small;">I would play with him. (I know...great phonetic spelling here haha!)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">They LOVED that the wolf's mouth opened. It was the greatest thing ever!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Lastly, we had our 3rd grade buddies come to our room and make the Three Little Pig's houses with us. We made a house of straw (yellow paper), sticks (popsicle sticks), and bricks (red paper)! It's so cute how different they turned out based on the different kiddo!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I plan on laminating these sentence strips and allowing my kiddos to build these sentences as a literacy center!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We also discussed the parts of an apple and did a cute craftivity. My students put together an apple and labeled the: skin, flesh, core, seeds, and stem!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Last we did an apple taste test! We tasted red apples, green apples, and caramel apples to decide which one was our favorite. This was one of our first introductions to graphing and my kiddos did great!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I made this graphing sheet and favorite page to go with this activity. After tasting each apple, my kiddos drew a picture of their favorite apple and then drew/wrote 3 reasons why they liked it! Then, we graphed those favorites.

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We also read Silly Sally! I always forget home much my kids love this book until I read it again :) We used the language from the book to create a class book (also from Deanna's unit). I modified it a little and added in a picture of my kiddos! They thought this was the coolest!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We also made rainbow names! I used this activity along with DeeDee Wills' Sticky Situation poem from her August and September Poetry Stations pack. My kiddos needed to practice the "just a dot" method and this was the perfect way to do it. I just happened to have a TON of tissue paper cut up so it worked out perfectly! Here is a finished product.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I don't know about you all, but I LOVE LOVE LOVE teaching about names. There is no more authentic, engaging learning tool than each of your student's names!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We do name work for about the first month of school. My school does not teach "letters of the day" or "letters of the week," so letter work is integrated daily through learning from our names.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We start the year off with Star Students. Each student gets the "honor" for one day. This kiddo gets to do all the class jobs, be the line leader, and get a special sticker.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">On this day, we also learn all about the kiddos name! I got a good part of our routine from this picture from <a href="http://ketchenskindergarten.blogspot.com/2012/09/hey-thats-my-name.html">Ketchen's Kindergarten</a> and I made similar cards for my class. You can get those cards <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz3m-hPevqXgeGJ6Zk1ENmdUa2M/edit?usp=sharing">here</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">**Fix it: Write the kiddos name on a sentence strip, cut out each letter, and mix them up. My SS gets to choose friends to come up and fix their name. Then, we spell it together saying the letter names.</span><br />
<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Then, the SS gets something very special. My kiddos watch me do a drawing of the star student. I talk about each body part as I add it. It is a great way to practice drawing people for writer's workshop later. Then, each of my kiddos go back and draw a picture of the SS. They all add their own little twists to it. We write the SS's name together on the paper to practice letter formation.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So this week, I thought I would share with you a little bit about my reader's workshop! During this time, I do my read-aloud, mini-lesson, me time and we time.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><u>Read-Aloud</u></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I generally do my read-aloud first. This time comes right after we come in from recess and my kiddos have gotten all their wiggles out and are ready to listen. My mini-lesson usually goes hand in hand with my read-aloud. </span></div>

I don't always do a close read, some weeks we do a different read-aloud each day.

The picture below includes anchor charts that my students helped me make for procedures during me time and we time. My mini-lessons are either integrated into my read-aloud or are an extra 5 minutes. I make them small and short so they are attainable for my kiddos!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We time is my students partner/group reading time. Right now, they sit at their tables with known books and read with each other. Sometimes kids read alone, with a partner, or the whole table will join in. This time is about 10 minutes.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This is a picture of two of my little sweeties reading the Itsy Bitsy Spider. They were adorable! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">During me time and we time, I confer individually with students, and pull one guided reading group. I find individual conferring much more effective in moving students forward than having all guided reading groups. I know that is not how everyone does it, but it works for me!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I also do shared reading and literacy stations, but this is done separate from reader's workshop. I'll show you our work during that time of the day another time!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I am finishing up with our basic routines/procedural stuff this week and am excited to be diving into more detailed curriculum next week!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I thought that I would share with you what we do for our morning routine each day in kindergarten!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">My kiddos each have their own hook to hang their backpack on. We are also still lucky enough to have a short rest time in the afternoon, and the kiddos are allowed to bring a small blanket if they want to that they keep in a white bucket under their backpack (dollar store find!).</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">They also place their lunchboxes in our red bucket. Since I do not take my students to lunch, having all the lunchboxes in one place makes the transition way easier for my lunch helper!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Next, they make their lunch choice. This is a craft stick with the child's name on it. They place it in the appropriate cup (lunch from home or lunch at school). Then if they buy lunch, they take their stick with them that has their pin number on it! You can get these labels for free <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz3m-hPevqXgN2VxdXo1WU9rbTg/edit?usp=sharing">here</a>!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Last, they usually have one piece of morning work to finish. This week, we are working on <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Community-Helpers-Read-Trace-Glue-and-Draw-216350">DeeDee Wills' Community Helpers Read, Trace, Glue, and Draw</a>.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This saves me from having to give directions everyday of what to do. It also helps my kiddos with their handwriting, cutting, gluing, and illustrations. It's also cute to see as the year goes on how they are able to start reading the sentences on their own!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I use the "less is more" ideal when preparing my classroom. I feel like some classrooms have SO many posters, resources, decorations, etc. that I can't imagine how the kiddos concentrate! Why put up a resource before a kiddo knows how to use it? I hope my classroom is a happy medium of welcoming and non-distracting!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I used a lot of practices from Whole Brain Teaching last year, and am definitely going to be using them even more this year.

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Awesome right?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So it all starts with me! I LOVE LOVE LOVE back to school time! Maybe it is the OCD in me or the color-coordinator in me, but having all of my goodies nice and neat really makes my heart sing (classroom pictures to come)! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">It's a new year! So I'm going to be telling you about my typical day in the classroom. Watch out for freebies along the way :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b><u>8:45-9:05 Arrival and Morning Meeting</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I love the beginning of the day! My babies are all cute and sleepy and calm, and they are just happy to see each other!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">My students have a quite a few jobs to take care of in the morning, but it is nothing that they cannot handle. When they come in, I ask them to:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">*Hang up their backpack/coat</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">*Show me their folder (for notes, etc.), then put it in their mailbox</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">*Make their lunch choice</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">*Tap their name/picture (attendance)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">*Sit down at their table and do morning work (usually an interactive worksheet/activity)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I love <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Deedee-Wills/Category/Read-Trace-Glue-Draw">Mrs. Wills' Read, Trace, Glue and Draw activities</a>. Handwriting practice, fine motor work, and coloring? What's better! I also love using <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/I-Can-Sort-From-A-Z-Alphabet-Sorting-Activities-735236">Vickie Plant's I Can Sort from A to Z</a> letter sorting activities. I love that these morning work options are interactive and make them think, but I don't have to give directions. Win-win!</span><br />

<br />
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">My students are almost always able to complete all of these tasks each day and have this routine mastered in about a month!</span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><u><b>9:05-9:20 Morning Meeting and Calendar</b></u></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I am a big believer in transitions! It saves my voice and gives my kiddos the responsibility of knowing what they are supposed to do.</span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I don't know about anyone else, but I am so not about getting up at 6AM everyday. This trying to get used to getting up early again SUCKS! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">But for today, it was for a good reason. We have kindergarten screening today! All (hopefully all) of the kindergartners for this fall come in for an hour session to get screened socially/emotionally, academically, and for gross/fine motor skills. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">It is amazing! It is so good to meet the kiddos and spend an extended period of time with them to get a glimpse of what we can expect during the school year.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">After screening, we use all of the information we received to make balanced classes. It is SUCH an awesome system! This way certain behaviors, social differences, friendships, high/low academics can all be addressed!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I attached our academic portion of the screening for free <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz3m-hPevqXgaUttR1JoX1NnclE/edit?usp=sharing">here</a>!</span></div>

Hope you are enjoying the last few days of summer. It's down to days now! AHH! I am trying to soak up as much sun as I can, and spend lots of time with this foster pup! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">But unfortunately school is calling me back. Its actually screaming at me to come back. The chaos that is my classroom right now is making my skin crawl. Look at this mess!!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I'm hyperventilating a little....I moved classrooms this year, just right across the hall. But apparently moving 10 feet is a bigger deal than I realized :(</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">However, I knew where I wanted most of my stuff before I moved it! I don't know if you all have read Debbie Diller's book, <a href="http://smile.amazon.com/Spaces-Places-Designing-Classrooms-Literacy/dp/1571107223/ref=smi_www_rcolv2_go_smi?_encoding=UTF8&*Version*=1&*entries*=0">Spaces and Places: Designing Classrooms for Literacy</a>, but it is AMAZING.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51uLqyiJBLL.jpg" /></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I learned so much about how classroom organization and management of spaces can affect your classroom environment! Debbie suggests that you make your classroom plan before you touch your furniture. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I think we know that as teachers who want the perfectly functioning classroom, we tend to *ahem* change our minds fairly often. She says to use sticky notes to create a topographical map of your classroom, that way you can move everything without straining your muscles (or without redrawing a map of your classroom 200 times)!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I have done this in the past, but have now found something even better! It's a website that you can use for free called <a href="http://floorplanner.com/">floorplanner.com</a><span id="goog_1883963386"></span><span id="goog_1883963387"></span><a href="https://www.blogger.com/"></a>. It gives you any classroom furniture you could use/need, and also gives you a 3D view of what it looks like! So awesome!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I'll keep updating you as my classroom gets more and more put together :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">For the exciting news, make sure that you come check back in August 1st! Myself and tons of other bloggers have gotten together to create a bloghop/giveaway that is going to be AMAZING!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">So week 1 is all about behavior management! This is something that I am ALL ABOUT people. As a now 4th year teacher, there is a TON that I still have to learn about being a teacher, but my classroom management is something that I often get compliments on from parents, other teachers, and administrators.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I set HIGH expectations for my kiddos from the very first day of school. I find that it is much better to be stern and stick to the rules from the beginning to have a well behaved class all year long!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><u><b><span style="font-size: large;">Hallway Management</span></b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I feel like hallway management is a huge part of behavior management. I make a HUGE deal out of the hallway being the pathway to the "learning zone" and we will not be distracting other students while they are learning. There are a few ways that I make this happen with my kinder babies!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><u><b><br /></b></u></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><u><b>Line-up Songs</b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I love line up songs! They are such a fun way to get your kiddos ready and quiet to enter the hallway. I change them up all the time so that they never get bored with what we are singing. These are a few of my favorites:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><u><b><br /></b></u></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><u><b>Line Order</b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I am a big believer in having a line order. Butting in line, shoving to be first, crying about being last....I'm having none of that. My kindergartners start with line order the first day of school and they CAN do it. They need a lot of help in the beginning, with numbers/names on the floor to show them where to stand, but they catch on quick! </span><br />

<span style="font-size: xx-small;">(These are my feet from last year. They worked fine, but I'll definitely change to something smaller this year as these fell off pretty quickly!)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">When I taught 1st/2nd grade, I would send the line leader to the en</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">d of the line each week. This gave everyone the chance to be first. But with my kinders, we just choose a new line leader each month and the rest of the line stays the same. These little guys don't know any different and they honestly DON'T CARE. Having the same spot all year keeps my behavior problems and talking in the hall to almost zero!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><u><b>Mystery Walker</b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Mystery walkers are such a great way to encourage good hallway behavior! I have a box with each kiddos name on a stick in it that I carry with me. At the door, I choose a stick and cover it with my hand. If the kiddo shows good hallway behavior, they get a point (Class Dojo, I'll explain below). If not, I don't acknowledge them at all, and they go back in the box. I want to reward good behavior, not make a child feel bad!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I just make it a habit to carry the box wherever I go! As a special treat, I include a stick that says "whole class" and obviously, if the whole class has good behavior, we all get a point! This is the only time that I let them know if they did not earn it.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">These are the actual tools I use as behavior management in the classroom. I use a multitude of different things, all working together to create a wonderful, well behaved class. Obviously, not every management tool is going to work for every student, but there are what work best for me!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><u><b><br /></b></u></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><u><b>Class Dojo</b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I love love love Class Dojo!

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Students can get points for WHATEVER you want them to! They are customizable! I made them according to school rules, character traits, or something I wanted the kiddos to work on (like superstar pictures)!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">You can also make different awards worth different amounts. For example, kindness is a BIG deal to me. So if I catch a kiddo being kind, in addition to putting a ribbon on the kindness wreath, they also get 2 points! The possibilities are endless. There is also an option to add negative points, but I choose not to do this. I find this is much more successful when I keep it positive!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This website is also phenomenal because you can track your kiddos behavior!! This is a much more beneficial aspect of the website if you are using both positive and negative, but I like to reward my kiddos who are being extra kind or extra responsible.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The last wonderful part of this website is the ability to communicate with parents. You can send home reports daily, weekly, monthly, etc. They can see what behaviors their child was awarded what day and at what time. It's a great tool for conferences! </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">They way that I use Class Dojo in my classroom is for the students to reach a goal of 50 points. When they get 50 points, they get a reward (prize box, coupon, etc.). Then I reset their Dojo points to zero, and they start all over again. This way, NO ONE KNOWS if a certain special friend takes much longer to get to their reward than others. They just get super excited for whoever reaches their goal, whenever they reach it!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">As you can tell, I'm a HUGE fan! I've used clip charts in the past and they have worked just fine for me. I just feel that this is a better fit for me as a teacher!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><u><br /></u></b></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><u>Kindness Wreath</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Out of all of the traits that I instill in my kiddos throughout the year, kindness is the most important to me! I really praise my students when they are being kind! I use this kindness wreath as a symbol of each kind act a student has performed. We start with an empty wreath at the beginning of the year, and by the end, it is full of ribbons!! I make a HUGE deal out of getting to put a ribbon on the wreath, meaning maybe only once or twice a day. Thanks to <a href="http://www.rainbowswithinreach.blogspot.com/2012/02/how-do-we-teach-kindness.html">Debbie Clement</a> for the idea!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><u><b>Turn-A-Letter</b></u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">In addition to having an individualized behavior management system, I also have a whole-class management system. Using turn-a-letter, my kiddos are working together as a class to earn a party. Each time they receive a compliment, or are super-well behaved as a whole class, they get to turn a letter. In the end, the letters all spell out what type of party we have!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This year we had: ice cream party, popcorn party, movie party, glow in the dark party, Frozen party, popsicle party, no shoes party, etc. I'm so frustrated I don't have a picture to show it to you in action. I'll find one soon!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><b><u>Character Education</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I am so into character education it's not even funny. I integrate character ed. into pretty much any teaching situation. That's how important I think it is! I teach it all year long because I feel that it is a pivotal part of behavior management.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I'm working on a character education pack that will hopefully be finished by the school year! Depends on how much of my pool time I want to squander :)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Blogging two days in a row? WHAT? I'm definitely going to try to blog more often and since I'm on a roll, I'm going to share one of my favorite books with you for <a href="http://mrsjumpsclass.blogspot.com/2014/07/book-talk-tuesday-linky.html">Book Talk Tuesday</a>!! I thought for the next couple of weeks, I would share some of my favorite character education books with you!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://mrsjumpsclass.blogspot.com/2014/07/book-talk-tuesday-linky.html"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPLeb2TXE2JovJWofwqPyQ-EtCokGE86BzlkgBKlXiPXfiPHoRy0SSlTvNdPL3_Fdsv5rhnAwRs2e7yW3Vj6fvU2d3MIDpAGD9MDFgE3HazM25s8ToRlm4n6lmQC4beTqkCHuoayUOomc/s400/book+linky.png" height="400" width="387" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">These are my favorite books to use when teaching students to be kind. I teach kindness hand in hand with teaching about friendship. The books below are just a few of the books I read to my kinders each year. These books are ESPECIALLY helpful when teaching kindness at recess, which at least for my kiddos, was a really difficult task!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I'm sure that this is not a new find for many of you, but one of my FAVORITE books to read to teach about kindness/friendship is <a href="http://smile.amazon.com/Recess-Queen-Alexis-Oneill/dp/0439206375/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1404849988&sr=1-1&keywords=the+recess+queen">The Recess Queen</a>!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<img src="http://wecanblog.edublogs.org/files/2012/09/therecessqueen2-29bpex1.gif" height="400" width="320" /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">What better kindergarten experience could there be for kiddos to relate to than RECESS? Through this story, Mean Jean, the Recess Queen, learns to be a kind friend when someone asks her to play. The other kiddos realize that she is only mean because she is lonely and wanted a friend. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">It gives them tons of examples of what not to do at recess, especially being physical (which I strongly stress is VERY WRONG while reading). I often read this on the first day of school, right before we go out to our first recess. It is a great way to introduce your recess rules and the importance of being a kind friend! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Through this book I also make sure that I give my kiddos the language they need to ask someone to play. Some of them are so shy/non-verbal in the beginning of the school year, they use inappropriate language/actions because they don't know how else to ask someone to play!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Another favorite of mine is <a href="http://smile.amazon.com/Chrysanthemum-Kevin-Henkes/dp/0688147321/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1404852127&sr=8-1&keywords=chrysanthemum">Chrysanthemum</a>. Poor Chrysanthemum gets made fun of because her name is so different from anyone else's. We see throughout the story how horrible it makes Chrysanthemum feel. In the end, a teacher makes her feel good about herself and proud of her name.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<a href="http://smile.amazon.com/Chrysanthemum-Kevin-Henkes/dp/0688147321/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1404852127&sr=8-1&keywords=chrysanthemum"><img height="400" src="http://www.harpercollinschildrens.com/harperchildrensImages/isbn/large/3/9780061119743.jpg" width="322" /></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This is also a perfect book to read when teaching kindness at recess, because recess is often a time where kiddos think they can get away with being unkind since they are out of earshot of the teacher. Since in the story, the students never actually apologize to Chrysanthemum for making fun of her, this book is when I introduce our special strategy. You can get get a copy of the language I use with my kiddos for <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz3m-hPevqXgZGptOVRNN1h2TE0/edit?usp=sharing">FREE here :)</a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">The students "act out" the apology of the other kiddos to Chrysanthemum and practice our apology strategy this way. Practicing as another "person" gives them the language and tools to use in a non-threatening way.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I also often read <a href="http://smile.amazon.com/Hey-Little-Ant-Phillip-Hoose/dp/1883672546/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1404851543&sr=8-1&keywords=hey+little+ant">Hey Little Ant!</a> This is also a perfect book to read to teach kindness at recess. I cannot tell you how many times I see my little ones ripping branches off of trees or stomping on spiders. They just don't understand that they are hurting another living thing. Hey Little Ant lets kids hear the perspective of the little ant and I find that many of them "see the light."</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<img height="313" src="http://all4mychild.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/hey-little-ant.jpg" width="400" /><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I often use the motto "Keep nature in nature" when we are out at recess and encourage the kiddos to not only be kind to one another, but kind to nature as well. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">These ideas, read-alouds, and resources are just a smidgen of what is included in my <u>Because I'm Happy! Character Education pack</u>. It's a YEARS worth of read-alouds, posters, activities, emergent readers, craftivities, and more to help teach your primary kiddos the importance of having good character.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So I am here to tell you that I am not a missing person. Although, not blogging for 6 MONTHS would almost make me one. I'm so sorry for my long absence. I had a special friend in my class this year, and it was really all I could do to actually make it in the door each morning, much less think about this little blog. But I'm back, and I'm definitely going to be better about blogging more often :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I've been teaching summer school, and taking the opportunity to get some stuff ready for next year! I FINALLY get to teach the same grade level two years in a row. Kindergarten again next year and I couldn't be more excited! These are some of the things I've been getting ready for next year! (Don't worry, I only stay for an extra 30 minutes each day!! I'm not wasting my precious summer!)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Being new to kindergarten this year, I bought her poetry pack for August/September with every intention of continuing on throughout the year as my students LOVED it! I just couldn't get it together to have them all set and ready. So, I'm doing it this summer!!</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This is just some of my progress. I've managed to cut out/laminate all of the little pieces, and am working on the actual poems on sentence strips right now. I'm about 1/3 the way done! That's pretty good right?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I also convinced my K team that we had to have DeeDee Wills and Deanna Jump's math and writing complete sets! I mean come on, these ladies are amazing! And if you get just one unit, you know you're going to love and it and will be mad at yourself for wasting your money on one when you want the whole pack :) </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">These units are AMAZING. I'm not kidding, I cannot wait to see how much more and how much faster my kiddos grow in their mathematical abilities because of this amazing resource. Not only does it give you detailed lesson plans, but it also organizes and builds on itself in a way that is easy for kids to understand, easy to differentiate, and easy for teachers to prepare. I LOVE IT!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I think I have all of the materials ready for the first 4 units, which should hopefully last me until December(ish). I am just beyond excited to start this in August!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">We also purchased DJ and DW's <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Writers-Workshop-Writing-Through-the-Year-Bundle-Complete-Set-1-8-CC-Aligned-727254">Writer's Workshop: Writing Through the Year</a> pack too!

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So far, I have managed to get through the first three units. Once again, I am just amazed at how wonderful these ladies are at making fluid lessons that push students, in addition to building off of the unit before. Writing was my biggest struggle as a kindergarten teacher because I felt as if I was modeling too much of what my students were not ready for. These lessons are very developmentally appropriate!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This project is something that I've wanted to make for a LONG time. A new prize box! I'd been waiting and waiting for the wooden treasure chests at Hobby Lobby or Michaels to go on sale, but the more I thought about my little kinder babies, I think if that got dropped it would shatter. So, on to plan B!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Michael's was having a sale on their containers, so I got this guy! It is perfect for a prize box because it is big enough to hold everything, and has a snap lid. My only concern was that it was clear. With a little sparkly scrapbook paper, problem solved! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This was honestly one of the easiest projects I've done. I just attached the scrapbook paper with scotch tape! My kiddos are not going to be in this that often, and when they are, they won't be ripping at the sides (hopefully haha!). And since the box will be full and you won't see it anyway, I put the tape on the inside. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This is what the box looks like with a few new prizes in it! Since the box is not totally square, the paper did not go all the way to the edges, but I think it still looks good!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">After having students the last few years that struggled with emotional regulation, I knew that for next year, I wanted more resources available in my room to help my students calm themselves down. I had seen this idea of a calming jar on Pinterest before, and had failed at making it! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<a href="http://www.jugglingwithkids.com/2011/10/mind-jar.html"><img alt="The Mind Jar is a meditation tool to use when you are stressed. When you shake the jar the glitter (your thoughts) are all over the place. Watch them slowly settle while you calm down. From blog, "Here We Are Together"." src="http://media-cache-ec0.pinimg.com/736x/c0/f9/f4/c0f9f4ccc7a62df700246c25fd8046e3.jpg" /></a><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">But I finally found an easy way to make this calming jar that I didn't mess up, from <a href="http://www.jugglingwithkids.com/2011/10/mind-jar.html">Juggling with Kids</a>. It was so easy! All you need is food coloring, some kind of jar/bottle, glitter glue, and warm water! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I ended up using Gatorade bottles. (Glass in a K classroom? I think not!) For each bottle I added 3 cups of warm water (it needs to be warm/hot to melt the glue), half the bottle of glitter glue (I used Elmer's), and 3-4 drops of food coloring. Just shake/stir to mix. Then I added just a tad more water at the end, but don't make it totally full or the kids can't shake and mix the glitter!</span><br />

I have absolutely no excuse. Winter Break and at least 5 snow days were thrown in there. But, I'm back and would love to share our plans for the week!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">We have begun our talk curriculum unit and are really delving into how to talk to partners. I have modeled it with other teachers, had them practice with me and each other, given them prompts, practiced with read-alouds and more....but I will tell you none of this really got them talking. They all sort of tried, but they basically sat with their partner and read books to each other. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">What got them talking? VIDEOTAPING THEM. So simple. I happened to have a 2 minute free window when I was done with my conferring during our partner block and saw two girls in my class just nailing their talk about their story. I videotaped them on my iPad and showed the class and all of a sudden, I have little superstar talkers!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">We are doing so well that I get to show videos of my little experts almost everyday! I want to make sure that they are still independent when I'm not watching/videotaping them, so I made these little bookmarks to remind them of what they can say to each other.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">In math, we are starting our geometry unit! Our scope and sequence doesn't have us starting shapes until now (weird!). But anyway, we have been learning all about 2-D shapes and sides/corners!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I use this great song to help them relate the shapes to the environment.</span><br />

The behavior....sigh. These babies just do not do well with changes in their schedule. It's partially my fault. I've made them creatures of habit, and being out of their routine is a big fat no-no for them!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">But anyway, we had a fantastic last week learning about Hanukkah and Kwanzaa (didn't quite get to Diwali, we'll hit it after break!). I have a post all ready to go to talk about all of the holiday fun we've had at the end of the week :) This week, we are going to finish Kwanzaa, and learn about Las Posadas and Christmas! </span><span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">My kiddos have really enjoyed learning about the different traditions.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">We are still working on really hitting the sight words hard. Have you seen the Have Fun Teaching songs for sight words? They are awesome! I used them for letters and now sight words. I totally get that best practice is for students to experience sight words in their reading BUT some repetitive practice is necessary too!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">And this Harry Kindergarten sight word rap is so cute! It is introducing a lot of sight words at the same time, but it is also a fun, engaging transition song!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/jb2g_RijEW8" width="459"></iframe><br /></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I am going to start playing this song as a transition into our reading block! We are going to be learning a bunch of new sight word games this week.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">We will also be focusing on subtraction! We will be doing a lot of story problems in our math journals to practice.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Lots going on this week, so here is a <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz3m-hPevqXgOG0yakhKZUxvYkE/edit?usp=sharing">Peek at my Week</a>!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">Have a great last week before break!</span><br />

I'm supposed to be where??? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">So I took a deep breath and spent my snow day Friday (after spending half the day sleeping and reading <u>Insurgent</u> of course) collecting myself and preparing to buckle down these next 2 weeks (yeah right!). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">But I'm going to try! We are going to really hit the sight words hard these next two weeks because I would love to start working on medial vowels/blending when I get back in January. I don't know about you all, but I have a TON of assessments that need to be done before I leave and I don't know when I'm going to fit them all in!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;">I don't have the energy to post up all of the crafts and activities, so I will after we do them :)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: large;"></span><br />
