Tomorrow is Cyber Monday at Teachers Pay Teachers and the deals are going to be awesome!  You get 28% off when you use code TPTCYBER!  Empty out that wish list...treat yourself to all those awesome products you know you are going to need and use after the holidays!


Here are some of my newest products that you can use in your classroom year round! Get it now while it's on sale! Be sure to click on the photo to bring you to my page! 

Very cute activity where students read sight words (pre-printed) write them, then either build them with tiles or stamps.  I've used this with my students and they LOVE it! Click on the photo to take you to the page. 

This is my most popular game! I have sold about 20 of these in the past 3 months! This is geared towards Kindergarten but can be used in first grade as a review! 

An awesome incentive program to get students to keep track of their reading.  Can be used as a reading log at home as well.  

Another crowd favorite! Use this in small groups or as a whole class literacy center.  Enough activities to keep several groups of students occupied! 

This activity has 20 days worth of sentences in a booklet form.  The sentences are basic and it is up to the student to add details to stretch them out.  You may have to do a few with them in the beginning but the students are able to handle the concept.  Great for 1st and 2nd grades.  

 

Two of my favorite games that are geared for the upper grades.   I have shared these with my daughter's teachers and they LOVE it! Click on the photo of each grade to check it all out! 

I try to do my best in pricing and I think I do price fairly.  I keep additional licences really low in the hopes that people will not just randomly share and not pay for the licence.  Please be sure to rate my product and like my store to find out the details on upcoming sales and new products!

Sick Teachers!

YUCK!

What a wild year this has been so far! I can't believe how many of my students are sick and how many times they have graciously shared their germs with me.  Today I am home with the stomach bug.  YET again! Apparently this handy little version of the virus leaves you miserable for at least 3 days.  I made the attempt to go to school today and was very excited to make it 1/2 day before I was in miserable pain and had to run from the school in search of a private bathroom! IK- TMI

Anyhow- on my way home I got to thinking...How many times is the average teacher sick? I travel between 3 schools this year and I have been absent a total of 6 times already and it's only November!
A once with a head cold (which NEVER seemed to leave), once when my daughter was sick (it was MY turn) and in the last week of October another one of my darlings shared their PINK EYE! That was good for another 2 days.  Now I am home on a 1/2 day after being home for 2 days prior. I just can't seem to win.

 I HATE to be absent! Honestly- It is more work for a teacher to be absent than if the teacher just sucked it up and went to school.  Sometimes you can't "suck it up".  I tried...epic fail.

So what do you do when you are home from school sick? School work of course! While I was home I have been working on finding some cute phonemic awareness activities I thought I would share with you...So much better than sharing this stomach bug.  Enjoy!

dot hoppers

In this cute activity the student jumps on the dots for each sound he hears in a word.  Great for my students that are a little active.  

Counting with LEGO

How cute is this! Counting syllables with lego bricks!

Counting sounds Tic Tac Toe!

Love that you can use this with beginning and ending sounds.  

Bead slide phoneme counter

Another idea for phoneme segmentation.  You can never have too many! 

Okay- Headed to the doctors office now.  Hopefully I can make it for a full day tomorrow.
