Give-Away!

I've been working on some projects this week, so I will FINALLY have something to link up with Tara on Mondays Made It! I can't wait! This is the first week of summer I've actually had NOTHING to do, so I was able to start on some crafts! But I'm realizing I also need to get to work on some practical items for my class as well! But check back Monday and you can see all of that!

On to the give-away!  I have been wanting to do one of these for a while, but I was waiting until I got 100 followers to celebrate! But, I've decided, I can celebrate any time I want :)  So I am having one now, to celebrate me getting into blogging! I started blog-stalking last summer, and found GREAT ideas, but this summer, I've actually been taking those ideas and making my own! So I am excited to start posting them, and see if you can use them! But on to what you're here for....Please be sure to spread the word! Thanks!

  3. The one "must have" in my classroom is a bulletin board calendar - great for teaching math skills, and especially showing kids when "special" days are (so that I don't have to keep answering the questions of 'when is ____?')!

    And you can celebrate blogging anytime you want - I love reading your blog! :)

  6. Welcome Sara. I too started out by stalking blogs and felt I needed to start one to share my ideas. You never know when someone will benefit from what you have to say.

    My favorite/must have item in my classroom is the Promethean Board and ELMO camera. I can't imagine not having one. It is wonderful for doing so many different activities with the children.

  8. This past year, I could not live without my huge collection of math manipulatives! My students loved "playing games" instead of just doing math book work :)
