Organizing my Classroom - Free Monthly Labels!




I'm getting organized in my classroom this year!  I purchased 10 large blue bins from The Christmas Tree Shop a few days ago.  I created these labels to brighten them up and help me organize my monthly materials.  I'll post some pics this week, but in the meantime, I'll share them with you!  Click HERE to download the labels from Google Docs! 


Since organizing is my first step to working on my class decor, I'm linking up with KinderAlphabet! Check it out!

Favorite Pins Friday..umm, Sunday!

Part of my summer routine...pinning ideas for the classroom!  Unlike home improvement projects that require lots of tools and money, I might actually do some of these!  Linking up with 
The First Grade Parade  with my favorite pins of the week!  

Visit Cara Carroll's blog HERE!  I love her style!

Friday Freebie! What will you learn in PreK?

Click  HERE to download from my TpT page!
Here's a sweet little student reader to help you out for the first week of PreK!  My students love these books!  You can read as a group, identify sight words or letters with a highlighter, read in small groups, color and send home for parents to read!  Whenever I create a student reader, I always format it so it can be run through the copy machine as a packet, stapled twice on the left side, and then cut in half to create two books!  Why did it take me 10 years to figure that out?

Enjoy!

Yay for PreK! My first freebie!

I use the summertime to get a head start on the school year because my husband is home to help me with the kids (he's a teacher, too)!  Here's a calendar freebie to give you a head start on the school year!  I created these calendars to use with my PreKers on the first day of each month, to introduce our new calendar.  There are three formats, so you can differentiate for your students.  I'll put it up for FREE on my TpT page this week, so download quickly!

My First Post!

Goals for this school year! 

 1. Get organized

2. Stay organized

3. Spend less time on my couch at midnight recreating things that I know I've used in the past!  

4. Use this blog to help me connect with other PreK teachers and implement the Common Core standards into my planning!
