HOOT HOOT HOORAY

HAPPY FIRST DAY!!!

I have an owl theme in my classroom this year and just thought these owls were a "hoot"!!! We talked about "circles" and then cut some out for the owls eyes! Finished it off with a "triangle" nose!

Who says teaching common core can't be "cute"!!!



Twas the Night Before School Started

I have been testing away in Pre-K! On Monday I get my first half of kids! Excited to begin a new year! I had such a WONDERFUL class last year! We used this for our Open House last week! I thought it was too cute! Click if you want it! Best of luck to everyone beginning this week!

Healthy Snacks

How do you incorporate snacks into your day?  I have a different child bring in snack everyday and we rotate using a snack calendar! This year our district is requiring "healthy snacks"! I am sharing my list with all of you! I would love to hear about snack time in your classroom! Please feel free to leave me comments and share with me! I would love to add more to the list!  Click here if you would like it!

Listening Ears

Whew!!! I have been in two days of NON-STOP meetings!!! A lot of changes in Louisiana education! I need a big time brain break! I love love Pinterest and saw this idea I thought I would share with all of you! How funny is this! I think even parents would appreciate a good pair of these.....I linked the picture back to the blog!



Smart Apps for KIDS

Have you seen this website? WOW! If you are fortunate enough to have an IPad in your classroom this website is a GREAT resource!  I have 2 Ipads for my pre-k class of 20 and it is THE MOST POPULAR Center in the classroom! Go and check it out!



First Day in Pre-K

 

Happy Friday! I cannot believe that it is my LAST FRIDAY OFF for the summer! Yep, I head back to work Monday! I wanted to share something with for the beginning of the school year! I made these headbands last year and the kiddos wore them home on the FIRST DAY OF PRE K! I thought they looked sooo cute! Anyway, I'm including a freebie in case you like them too! I just printed them onto card stock and laminated them.  I used left over border that I had hanging around my classroom to make the band part! Enjoy click here for freebie!

BULLETIN BOARD!

I love Bulletin Boards! I used the idea for the tree from pinterest! The owls are from Carson Dellosa Colorful Owl Welcome Set! I have HUGE bulletin boards in my room to fill! I will share more with you in the upcoming weeks!
