Monday Made it and FREEBIES


Have you read any of Julia Cook’s books? She is one of my favorite authors. Two of my biggest pet peeves are when children blurt out and tattle. You should check out A Bad Case of Tattle Tongue and My Mouth is a Volcano. Both are excellent books that seem to really engage and educate children. If you have the books then I created some sheets that respond to the story. Click here to download.


I am also quite proud of all the fun freebies I've found in blog land. I have printed tons of goodies, laminated, and hot glued them to the walls. The hot glue gun is my best friend these days!!! All of these are freebies I've found online. Be sure to click on their name and it will take you right to the free download.

Thanks Randi
Thanks Ginger!
Thanks Marianne
Thanks Kristen
I also purchased the Target book covers. All I can say is AMAZING. My students love having a little spot for books or  unfinished work.  I also love the little white baskets for storing their writing journals.

I can't wait to see your awesome projects! I sure do love Monday Made Its with Tara

Back to School Books

What teacher doesn't love books? Today I'm linking up to share my favorite books for the first day of school. 


 

Here are a few of my favorite books! Click on the picture to go straight to The Clever Teacher to order.

Elmer

The Crayon Box That Talked

 

I love these books so much that I  even have a great packet that goes along with my favorite books

Enemy Pie

Enemy pie is a terrific story told through the eyes of a young boy. It is a story about how to make friends, and how enemies are unmade. My students love this book every year. 


Wemberly Worried
I love all of Kevin Henkes books! Great for the beginning of the year.
Owen 

This story is great for learning how being kind and filling each other's buckets.


This book is a must. It goes along with bucket fillers.

This is a classic first day story. I love the sweet message. 

Love the ending!
