Favorite Pins Friday

I'm linking up again with The First Grade Parade to talk about my favorite pins of the week. This is such a fun linky because it forces me to look at my boards and I get inspired all over again. Click the pictures to go to the websites these ideas came from.

I just can't get enough of this idea from Kindergarten Works. She has prop ideas that go with 20 different popular kid's books. After she has read the books and acted them out with the class, she puts them in a literacy station and the kiddos act out the story with one or two partners. My mind is blown. Think about the listening and speaking standards that are covered doing this as well as the growth in the students' comprehension. Also so much FUN!

 

I love this thank you idea from Hillside Elementary Library. How special would you feel if you got a thank you like this. This also would a great time saver because kiddos wouldn't be decorating whole cards.

This one comes from Nerdy, Nerdy, Nerdy. I really want these plastic drawers for my kiddos to have at their tables. I think it would be so handy for folders, notebooks, and supplies. I would also like to put a turn in basket on the top of each so that I can just walk around and see how hasn't turned in their work. I just wish they weren't so expensive to buy. :(

 

Here are some pins that warm my child of the 80's heart! Too Funny!

I'm sorry but this is just too funny.

 

Ninja Turtles! Ha!

 

I love all of the chevron maxi dresses that are out these days. I really like this color combo and love the single red chevron stripe.

 

For my future beach house!

 

Dr. Seuss just had it right!

Favorite Pins Friday

I'm Linking up with Cara from The First Grade Parade to post my favorite pins of the week. All I can think is...

So True!

 

If you click on any of the pictures in this post, they will take you to the site where the idea came from. If I wasn't a direct link, I just left the pinterest link. :)

 

 

I just love this idea from Rambling about Reading to send home after the first day of school. I was also thinking it would go well with the weekly newsletter I plan on doing this year. Maybe I should have 2 pins off of the picture. Hmm.....

 

I wanted to make these so bad this last year and time just somehow got away from us. I will definitely be making them this year. I also want to write the word UNLESS on the back of them.

With this little letter plate, the kids walk around and fold down the letters they see in the writing around them. This would be such a fun, educational afternoon break to do. I also love that it gets kids thinking about the difference between letters and words. This will go great with my bean bag and sidewalk chalk ideas for taking learning outside.

We will be making these the first day of school. So stinking cute! Click here for some more Eric Carle room ideas I have and here for a Build Your Own Eric Carle Inspired Banner.

 

 

I love this simple idea for a word work center. I going out and getting myself some burner covers. I think it would also be fun to have magnet names of all of the kids and they have to find the letters to spell their friends names. This can later transfer into building sight words.

Jalapeño Popper Chicken! Oh My!

Avocado Eggrolls with Sweet Cilantro Sauce! I need a personal chef!

Here are some pins that make my heart happy!

So cute it hurts!

 

I actually gut rolled about this one. So true!

There is just something about this combo that I love. Black pants and coral ballet flats, I am ready for school.

 

Thanks for stopping by and be sure to go to The First Grade Parade and see all of the other wonderful pins. :)
