New Product Posted

Since I have been working in my room and planning for the next school year, I decided I wanted a few "getting to know you" activities that students could easily do.  I have uploaded my product on TPT.

Here's my description: I am using this document as a getting to know you type activity for Back to School. I print using "poster" and give each student a dot label with their name/number on it. Then they go to each poster and add their dot to the appropriate box. For the favorite food, I give students a post-it and let them write their favorite on it. It includes: Favorite Special Classes (computer, library, music, PE);favorite sport, how you feel about 2nd grade (there is a page for each grade at the end of the packet). favorite food; subject liked the most; a how do you work best; and how many were in your room last year.

Reading Wonders Focus Wall

As I am preparing for my first year of teaching, I am always looking for things that I feel make a difference.  I truly believe that having the same labels for objectives you teach each week is one of them.  I created this Focus Wall for the Second Grade Wonders,
