Friday Freebie – Camping Discussion
Happy Friday! I’ve been sharing camping ideas all week and I’m enjoying my first camping trip of the summer as we speak (we’re in Amish country right now, so I may also be enjoying baked goods…). I’ve been sharing camping ideas all week, so it only seemed right that I share a camping freebie too. I created something brand new for you today, This set is designed to get your students talking! Ask the children to pretend they were taking a camping trip – what would they take with them? What would they want to eat? What would they want to do? What would they make sure to watch out for?…

I’ve already got a few of my own filled out – I used one for the conference that I went to last weekend, and I need to do one for the camping trip I’m going on next week, and then another for my trip to Vegas in July. What will you be packing for?

Friday Freebie – Summertime
We made it to Memorial Day weekend! This is definitely cause for celebration, and I’ve got another reason to celebrate – I’m presenting at the OAEYC Conference in Sandusky Ohio today. If you’re going to be at the conference this weekend I’d love to meet you! I’ve presented at OAEYC a few times, but I’m especially excited this year because the conference is being held at Kalahari Resort and Indoor Waterpark, so I’m taking a mini-vacation with some of my favorite teachers. In honor of the unofficial start of summer I found a really cute freebie for you today. This ABCs of Summer book from Whitney Parlin would be a…

Friday Freebie – Seed Math
Happy Friday! My posts this week have been all about spending time outside; Exploring, Taking Walks, and Gardening – today’s freebie is a math activity that would be great to do while you take a break from planting the garden. This seed math set is a really cute way to help children practice sorting different seeds, counting them, and graphing them. It is also a really nice visual of what the seeds for each plant look like, one that you could refer to all summer long. Go download this freebie from Elizabeth McCarter and enjoy your weekend, we’ve almost made it to Memorial Day!

Friday Freebie – Teacher Appreciation
Happy Friday! Teacher Appreciation week might be over, but it’s always a great time to tell a teacher thank you. Today’s freebie would make a great end of the year gift for your child’s teacher, or a great thank you for the other staff members in your building. These cute coffee cup sleeves are printable, and will fit around a travel mug, or a paper cup from the coffee shop. Download them from I Should Be Mopping the Floor!

Friday Freebie – Mother’s Day
Happy Friday! I’m hoping today’s freebie is as helpful for you as it is for me! I try to start planning for Mother’s Day early because I have high standards, and because I know how long it takes for my kiddos to finish a project. I have tough time choosing a Mother’s Day project every year because I want it to be something that Moms will really use, not just another piece of artwork that will end up in a pile. I also really try not to spend too much, because I can’t afford to, and because I know it isn’t about spending money, it’s about teaching children to take…

My presentation is all about creating documentation and using it in the classroom, if you can’t make it to the conference you can check out some of the information I’ll be sharing from these blog posts. I also have a great freebie for you today. Yesterday I shared my End of the Year Memory Book, which makes a great Preschool Graduation keepsake. Today I wanted to share a freebie that made a huge difference in my graduation preparations last year. These…

Friday Freebie – Earth Day Activities
Happy Friday! This was a super busy week, and I wish I could say that things will slow down a little, but next week is just as crazy. This weekend won’t bring a lot of time to relax, but I guess that means it’s spring – the weather is warm and my schedule is packed! I have a freebie for you today that will help with your plans for next week. Earth Day is next Wednesday and this Graph and Write set will keep your class busy all morning. Take them outside to collect litter, and then the children can sort the litter into different categories and graph what they’ve…

Friday Freebie – Spring Cleaning
Happy Friday! It’s finally beginning to feel like spring, which around here means rain for months, BUT all of this spring weather has me itching to do some serious cleaning! I’ve already purged my closets at home, and now I’ve got my sights set on the closets at school. Spring is the perfect time to get rid of all of the stuff that has accumulated over the winter. It’s a great time to freshen up the classroom because it’s time for a change. Rearrange your furniture, put out new activity centers, spruce up the decor a little, and top off all of your efforts by labeling everything! Well, that’s what…
