Welcome to Fun in Room 4B!
I did it 🙂 I finally created something of “substance” for you and for my stores. I’m so excited. Here are some pictures of the final product: I’m going to have my students create these next week (only three real days because we have two field trips planned). Then, we will finish them up the…
Amber’s asked me to help out with her giveaway. I’m offering the first “paid” item from my TpT store. I made it a while back to help me organize my classroom. She’s teaming up with several bloggers to celebrate her 200th follower. Part of the giveaway includes great products from other bloggy friends like Elisabeth…
Who doesn’t love Schoolhouse Rock? As a child {eh-hem} of the 70s {eh-hem}…I grew up on these little gems. I LOVE using SHR. Here’s a funny story. {Surprise!} I thought someone had walked off with my DVD all year. Seriously. I was ready to call the cops and everything. I’ve needed it. Badly. My kids…
OK~How to sum up that dorky title? RR does not stand for Railroad. Or even Reading Recovery. It’s Reading Rotation. I wanted to show how I’ve updated the board. If you are new to my blog {cause I got TONS of new followers thanks to Lorraine’s Linky Party…thanks, Lorraine}, then let me fill you in……
I’m sure you’ve seen the Primary Expo out there in blogland. Well, it’s the Intermediate’s turn. Aren’t you excited??? I am! Mor over at A Teacher’s Treasure is a featured speaker and she is currently having a giveaway for free tickets. This is a virtual expo for all things intermediate including: Integrating Technology presented by…
OK, bare with me. This is a rambly-kinda-post but I have so much to talk about and only one post a day??? First: I WON!! Misty over at Think, Wonder & Teach had a give away for this: Yes! It is THE pencil sharpener. You know, the one created by Troy. It’s The Quietest Classroom…
So this is how my morning started. No alarm. Do I really need to say more? Not really. But I will….’cause it’s that CrAzY! So, my husband wakes me up at 7:00. I normally LEAVE THE HOUSE at 7:00! What? Jump up in a tizzy. I had not set my alarm. I got a full…
Can you guess what skill we are working on this week? I’m so witty. Not really…maybe a little punch-drunk. Anyway. Here’s a freebie for you. It’s a word document so that you can change the book example to work for you. I’ve read several Laura Numeroff’s books to teach cause and effect. I’ve got quite…
I’ve been as pleased as punch with my Math Rotations. I’ve been implementing this “way of teaching” now for about a month and feel like I’ve worked out the kinks. Mostly. If you want to know about why I tackled math first, read THIS post. Basically, I thought that if I could master math rotations…
And I’m not even teaching alliteration this week. I amaze myself. Remember when I didn’t get to go on that field trip due to tornado warnings? Considering the recent weather in the mid-west, I’m so glad we made the right decision for many reasons. Among the safety reasons, I was also able to clean a…
