Tuesday, March 22, 2016. A Teaching Pot of Gold: Daffodils. Photo courtesy of mensatic 002. Harbingers of S p. Hello I am Tami from Kamp Kindergarten. When we see daffodils in Georgia we start thinking of spring. It is usually still quite cold when the first daffodil blades stubbornly emerge, often the only green visible on the ground. It is a welcome sight when the cheerful yellow blooms crown the stem. Cheerful Daffodils in a Sea of Brown Vegetation. I grew up in rural Georgia. Lfreds, and M o. She was...

Teaching With Crayons and Curls: July 2015
http://www.teachingwithcrayonsandcurls.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
This week was incredible, inspiring, and so much fun! I got to spend the week training all of the new teachers to our school district! Teacher truth- this was actually the very first time I've ever done any type of training outside of my local school, so I was kind of freaking out a little bit! We met on Monday morning to go over some last minute details and set up our rooms. I left out some motivating snacks for all our new teachers! These Positive Sticky Notes. Can be used for EVERYTHING! Summer has co...

http://www.theprimarypeach.com/2017/01/the-dos-and-donts-of-guided-reading.html
Sunday, January 8, 2017. The Do's and Don'ts of Guided Reading. Since it is about midway through the year, how about we do a guided reading refresh? December was always so crazy, that my reading block was often affected. January was a nice, fresh, blank slate where I was ready to really dive back into guided reading. DO: BE PREPARED. READ THE BOOK IN ADVANCE. DON'T: PICK A BOOK AND JUST "WING IT" WITH KIDS. DO: KEEP GUIDED READING GROUPS RELATIVELY SHORT AND STRUCTURED. DON'T: HAVE 35 MINUTE LONG GUIDED ...

March 9th Math Madness Monday - Love Always, Diana Lynn
http://lovealwaysdianalynn.weebly.com/blog/march-9th-math-madness-monday
March 9th Math Madness Monday. It is hard to believe that it is already time for another Math Madness Monday! I promised one of my math groups that I would talk about what I do for "Math Daily 3", I have tried several different ways of running small groups for math. I love the idea of math small groups, but unfortunately the original model doesn't work out well with my curriculum. I think this may have to be a series since it will be so long! While it sounds all bad, it really wasn't! 3) Make your expect...

Thursday, November 24, 2016. I can do that with Kahoot? Do you use Kahoot in your classroom? Are you looking for new ideas to engage your students. Blind Kahoot, Ghost Mode and Team Kahoot are just a few ways to change up your Kahoot routine. Blind Kahoot is a cool way to introduce new content to your students. It’s “blind” because students have limited knowledge of the topic. Here is the template used for Blind Kahoots. Here is a video explaining the Blind Kahoot. Have you tried Ghost Mode? With all of ...

Yesterday, Theresa shared her station idea with you all. If you didn't read it, head here. 127; i...
