Circus Nameplate Freebie

I tried to make some circus nameplates. Not sure about them yet. They are very bright and colorful, but I need to see how they print. I'm all out of card stock so I guess it will have to wait until tomorrow.

Friday Freebie!

I'm so excited for my new circus theme! I made some circus themed number cards modeled after the current numbers that I have up in my classroom. A quick slice down the middle, laminate, add a magnet, and VIOLA! I hope some other teachers can use these! Leave me a comment if you download and tell me what you think.

Surviving VPK Freebie

I have been MIA recently! I am teaching 4 weeks of VPK. I took over another teacher's class and will be finishing their year. All I can say is, "Golly..am I exhausted!" 13 more days of VPK fun and then I can get back to planning for Kindergarten! The worst part of this new experience is that I'm not too fond with the planned curriculum. My teaching stuff is in my classroom and I don't have enough to work with. What is a creative teacher to do? You guessed it...make your own stuff! I have been messing around with Power Point and have found that I can make really cute stuff and it is so simple. Stay tuned because I will be posting all of the things I have made so far. Here is something I made today. We are studying the Rain forest. I hope you enjoy it!

My new favorite thing....

I LOVE Vistaprint. I just want to shout it out to the world!! I placed a few orders yesterday using the great deals I found on the proteacher forum website. They have a group for Vistaprint addicts and share all of the great online deals/coupons they receive. Click here to check it out.

Here are some of the things that I made yesterday. Many of them were free, but I had to pay a bit for shopping. (Still totally worth it)

25 Followers...Giveaway thoughts?

I'm so excited that I have received 25 followers. I really want to do a giveaway, but not sure what I want to do. I have been working really hard on creating a calendar flipchart to use with a Promethean Board. It is filled with songs, calendar pages up to December (as of right now), days of the week, months of the year, birthday graph, lost tooth graph, 100 days of school chart, weather graph, a changeable question of the day/attendance chart. I will be using this along with a calendar notebook.

Would anyone be interested in winning this for their room? If you don't have a Promethean, but know someone that would like to have this...please spread the word around!
