Summer Showers Bring...A New TPT Unit :)

Well we had a nice little storm shower this afternoon that cramped my pool day style! So instead of soaking up those delightful rays I decided to make a new product. You can check it out here. I was thinking about what I need for those first few weeks of school and thought about real/nonsense word sorts. So I made a CVC Real/Nonsense Word Sort that could be used during centers or small groups. I made this one easy-just print and go! These sorts will show you if your firsties really know those vowel sounds and what real words sound like. I am hoping to get the finishing touches done in my classroom this week because I'm crazy my brother is getting married the first week back to school! And being the OCD/Type A organized person I am, my goal is to have that room ready for those babies ASAP! :)

Whoa! This is one crazy life!

Well I know it has been forever since I have posted and I do apologize!! My life has been so insane and this blog took a back seat and was forgotten. (as sad as that makes me to admit!) I was accepted to (and finished) grad school, bought a house, and changed schools/grade levels. WHOA! So here is the update-- I now teach 2nd grade in a smaller school and smaller system. My school only has 13 teachers in PreK-5th grade. What a dream it is to teach at a "neighborhood school"! My kiddos are mostly on free/reduced lunch and come from single-parent homes. So, teaching these 2nd grade babies is really like teaching firsties anywhere else! My products will probably work for your room too. My school uses Wonders and enVision so if you use those also, you're in luck! :) Summer is in full swing for me so I will be making some new things and setting up my classroom. Tour to come when the floor waxing is finished! Any second grade teachers out there--your advice is welcome here!! I have heard it is the dream grade so I can't wait to find out! Happy summer, friends!
