Friday Freebie – Summer Writing Prompts
Happy Friday! I have such a great idea for you today – I did a training last week and one of the participants was sharing that she is doing summer journals with all of her students. She thought that this would be a good way to continue the writing and language work that they started during the school year, without really feeling like they were doing “work”. She is planning on having them take their journals along with them on all of their fun summer trips so that they can write or draw what they learned and how they felt about the experience.

Friday Freebie – In Like a Lion
Happy Friday! March has definitely come in like a lion in my area – isn’t that a funny saying?! I distinctly remember learning the “In like a lion, out like a lamb” adage when I was in preschool. I know for a fact that we made lion and lamb faces out of paper plates. Isn’t it interesting what our brains chose to remember? Today’s freebie can help you explore this tradition with your own students. This In Like a Lion Out Like a Lamb Calendar and Weather set from Tina O’Block is adorable!
