We have to share three things we like using our initials, so here we go...
A is for animals
I love my pets so much! I have to admit that my puppies are the biggest sucks in the world. Molly, the yellow lab, is almost 10 months old and she is a huge baby. She thinks she is a lap dog and maybe part cat. Look at this picture!! What a goof.
M is for Mom
My Mom is one of my best friends. It helps that she is a teacher too (check out her blog here) so she understands my obsession with books and all things teacher-y. I think it might be genetic. She is going in for surgery tomorrow and I just want her to know I am thinking about her lots!! xoxo
T is for TpT
I don't know what I would do without TpT. I find so many amazing resources on there that I would never have even thought of before! It's so amazing to see all these teachers creating and selling products that are actually useful, engaging, and FUN! :) These are my latest purchases and I just love them! I want to use these with my low reading group who still struggles with letter sounds. Click the pictures to check them out at TpT.
Beginning Sounds "MP3" Match by K is for Kinderiffic
Beginning Sound Scoops by The Moffatt Girls
Sound Racers by Heather's Heart --> Love these!!! Especially for the boys.
Alright, speaking of TpT, I just wanted to let you know I updated my Easter Word Work pack. It has the same five activities as before, but I added a sixth stamping centre. If you have already purchased this pack, go to "My Purchases" on TpT and download it again for free. Click the picture below to check it out at TpT.
I promise I will be back this weekend to post some writing freebies and ideas from the workshop I presented a few weeks ago. Enjoy the rest of your week!
Just found your blog through the linky.

My initials are BLC. I always used to joke that it was bacon, lettuce, and cheese, lol.

Hehe. That's fun. I always think of an ATM when I think of my initials...AMT :)

Thanks, Jenny! I think they are adorable too! :)
ReplyDeleteAww, Amanda...I love you lots! Yes, I'm sure you got all of your teacher-y addictions from me...as well as your procrastination towards report cards..lol
ReplyDeleteMy grand-puppy is definitely a big suck...but she is just so darn cute!
I am feeling ok...I had a nap this afternoon, and will probably have another one this evening...then maybe I can spend some time online checking out classroom things and new books! (and thanks to Julia for your kind wishes as well)
Hugs!
Hi there! I came across your blog via Pinterest. Someone pinned your "Thinks I Like" booklet, which I can't wait to try with my firsties. I'm your newest follower! :)
