Summer???

Where has summer gone??? I can't believe it is already mid June!! I just got back from a wonderful vacation at Myrtle Beach and I am trying to get back into the swing of things. I wish school wasn't always on my mind, but it is. Oh well, I guess I should just deal with it. Here is a cute rhyming activity I wanted to share.

M-Class

My kindergarten team decided to use these profiles sheets this year to record our student data for M-Class. When the school year ended we put these data sheets in the students' Cumm. folders so that the first grade teachers would have access to them next year. We recorded each student's score for each test and then colored in the bubble under BOY, MOY, EOY to show whether they ended up red, yellow, or green. The first grade teachers liked these so much that they asked me to make a profile sheet for 1st grade. Because I love them so much I did! :-) Kindergarten Profile Sheet & First Grade Profile Sheet. I uploaded a picture of a partially completed profile sheet to show you as an example.

Number Practice

If your students need some extra practice with number formation here are a couple of number tracer pages. I like to laminate them so that my students can use them over and over again...then I don't have to keep making copies! Numbers 1-30 & Numbers 1-50

Word Work

Man I really need to go to bed but I am so obsessed with trying to get my blog up and running!!! I am trying to find things that I have made for my classroom that are helpful but that don't have a lot of clipart. I am still working on finding the right clipart licenses and I don't want to post anything that I could get in trouble for...that is my biggest fear!!! ANYHOO...here is a word work activity. You can have the students write the words or I have even used alphabet stamps. My students always seem more engaged when they use materials other than pencils. They like to use markers and colored pencils, but stamps were probably one of their favorites this year! Click here to purchase this packet at my TpT store. It includes 10 different word family activities.

ABC's

Here are some simple alphabet pages that I like to use at the beginning of the school year. I make several copies and laminate them. I let my students work on them if they finish their seatwork early. I also use these a lot with students who struggle to form their letters correctly. If you have little ones at home that are learning to write their letters these would be perfect for them to practice! Uppercase Alphabet Practice & Lowercase Alphabet Practice.

Name Tags

Here are some simple but useful Name Tags that I created. Nothing fancy but they serve the purpose. :-)
