Writing Rocks!

Setting writing goals for my students can sometimes be challenging. To make this easier, I made a classroom poster with four specific writing goals for each student. Simply print (cardstock recommended), laminate, and hang using ribbon. Attach the pencils with each students' name onto clothespins and place on the specific goal that student is currently focusing on. This will help you keep track of their needs while providing your students with clear visuals describing their specific objectives.

I also included writing paper with a checklist for students to review once they are finished with their writing. No more excuses for forgotten periods!

Building Words: Reading Rods Literacy Center

Click the picture above to visit my TpT store

I love incorporating play into my teaching as much as possible.  When I plan for my week I try to keep worksheet centers to a minimum. This year, I've been creating products that I can use with Reading Rods. Reading Rods have quickly turned into a favorite center for my students. I found Reading Rods at a local teaching store, but I found them on Amazon for much cheaper. You can get them HERE.

Instructions: Print cards out on card stock. I like to glue them in construction paper for added durability. Laminate cards and write answers on the back. Students will spell the words using Reading Rods and they may look on the back to self-correct. 

It's the perfect no-prep center!

Slow and Steady Wins the Race??

It's probably too early to start thinking about back to school... scratch that, it definitely is.  I may have even beat the notorious "It's the most wonderful time of the year..." Staples commercials. However, in an attempt to stay on top of things this year, I'm beginning to get things ready for September.

This week, I made a chevron-themed back to school bundle. Of course, I'm giving my fabulous followers a FREEBIE! Below, is a link to download a yellow chevron 'Welcome to Kindergarten' banner. I suggest printing this on card stock, using a hole-punch, and stringing twine through the holes. 

Send me a picture of your banner hanging in your classroom and get the entire packet for FREE! Simply add the photo to the comments section or email it to me at happylittlekindergarten@gmail.com. I look forward to seeing it in your classroom!
