Extra, Extra, Read All About It!

Throughout the past year I have been working hard to become a more effective Reading teacher... easier said then done. I decided to make a simple packet including forms that I wish I had available. 

Click Here to Purchase!

In this packet there are monthly reading logs (very basic... I never remember to make a new one each month so this should help!), a guided reading handbook for parents, suggested books for students at various second grade levels, and guided reading charts and forms (simple reading rotation schedules, simple running record sheets, guided reading reports, and student response sheets). My plan is to print out the guided reading charts and forms and have them in a binder for easy use next year! 

I hope you enjoy! I know that I am already excited to use this!

Been a while!

It has been a little over a week since I have posted... SORRY! I am trying to balance work, graduate school, and a brand new fitness routine. (The boyfriend is wonderful at understanding how overloading I am!)

I was working on a unit entitled Multiplication Madness. However, I had a creative mind block. So, I have started working on a brand new unit! I hope to finish Multiplication Madness and sell it sometime, so keep an eye out. My new unit is going to enhance my Writing Center next year. Look for it soon!

Spring Fever is here! Hope you are all keeping your kiddos controlled and enjoying some time outdoors!

Multiplication Madness...Coming Soon!

Here is the unit I am working on now! Hopefully, I will finish today or tomorrow. However, I start my MSED on Monday and have to clean. Wish me luck!

Daily Journal Ideas

This year in second grade I have implemented the use of compositions books as daily journals. We love the fact that students write everyday and review some concepts that they struggle with. Unfortunately, we find that the students are running out of glue fast, not all of the "Warm-Ups" are the same size and that they don't always follow the same format.

So... tonight I am brainstorming new ways to have students do the same thing while reviewing their math facts daily as well.

Any ideas would be appreciated!
Sorry for the short post. I had to write my Valentines and now I am going to let my creative juices flow to see what I can come up with!
