First Grade's a Hoot: August 2013
http://livinglargeinfirst.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 12, 2013. Lets Talk About ME! So excited to be participating in this years teacher week! Per Blog Hoppin' this posts all about me! Get ready to know me, Ms. Lovelace through my Ten Facts. 1 Lovelace is my maiden name. My married name is Guishard but my husband says kids would mess it up so I go by Lovelace. It's also the nickname my husband uses. 2 I have 3 kids, Ava 8, Kohen 5 and Elena 3. I would love one more, but Kevin says no way! 3 I love nicknames! 9 My classroom is owl themed but m...

First Grade's a Hoot: June 2014
http://livinglargeinfirst.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 29, 2014. I'm baaack. Or at least I am for today. So we can all conclude that teaching and blogging don't mix in my world! It's clear I can't handle both. So now that I've have had a couple weeks to rest up and enjoy some of my summer I think I'm ready for a little Sunday Smorgasbord. School ended for me June 13th and since then my focus has been the following:. Spending time with my lovies:. Somehow no matter how hard I try these three just won't stop growing! How did this happen? It's the ...

First Grade's a Hoot: Vegas Recap: Lessons Learned on Day 1
http://livinglargeinfirst.blogspot.com/2014/08/vegas-recap-lessons-learned-on-day-1.html
Saturday, August 2, 2014. Vegas Recap: Lessons Learned on Day 1. Please tell me I'm not the only one whose life gets away from them? I fully intended to write this post 3 weeks ago, but then camp started. Doesn't bode well for my intentions of blogging during the school year does it? Oh well as my hubby says nothing to it but to do it, so without further ado. Session 1: Turning Your Math Instruction into a Fun-a-Licious Experience for All presented by Cara Carroll. I was so pumped for this session! 2) Ma...

First Grade's a Hoot: October 2012
http://livinglargeinfirst.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 20, 2012. We got a new administrator last March and though I am SO sad our previous principal retired, I can honestly say my new principal has caused me to rethink and change the way I put my literacy block together. First was the light bulb moment that went off when she told me she was more interested in WHAT I TAUGHT then she was in WHAT I COVERED! I fold these in half before passing them out to the kids and then once we take the test have them open them up to see how they did.

First Grade's a Hoot: 1A is Ready for the 2014-2015 School Year
http://livinglargeinfirst.blogspot.com/2014/08/1a-is-ready-for-2014-2015-school-year.html
Saturday, August 30, 2014. 1A is Ready for the 2014-2015 School Year. I'm over a week late but at least I'm sharing. On Monday I welcomed 20 new first graders to 1A. This is the first year we've had Sneak-A-Peek the Monday before classes started and I loved it because it gave me more time to prepare! My students were greated with these goodies on their desks. So my new teammate and I laid it on thick I'm pretty sure it worked. All the kids loved checking out our new classroom. Here's a tour for you:.

First Grade's a Hoot: October 2013
http://livinglargeinfirst.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 5, 2013. Five for Friday October 4th. Instead of lamenting on not posting this week I'm going to be excited about linking up with Kacey for the 2nd week in a row! My first full week of guided reading was a success! All the kids loved it and left the table saying that was fun! I only had one behavior issue while I was running groups and even that wasn't huge. Once again I'm reminded that taking those first 25 days to really teach each component of the Daily 5 is worth it! I'm growing qui...

First Grade's a Hoot: A New Approach to Scheduling
http://livinglargeinfirst.blogspot.com/2014/08/a-new-approach-to-scheduling.html
Sunday, August 31, 2014. A New Approach to Scheduling. I'm hoping to join DeeDee's Peak at My Week. Linky tomorrow so today I wanted to share my schedule with you guys. I'm don't know about you but each year I feel rushed to squeeze everything in and guilt over not giving some content the time it deserves. In an effort to avoid as much of that as I could this year I came up with the following scheduling method. First I recreated our 8 period schedule onto two pieces of poster board. 1A is Ready for the 2...

First Grade's a Hoot: September 2012
http://livinglargeinfirst.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 25, 2012. To say it's been awhile is an understatement! What can I say, teaching, working at summer camp and my 3 kiddos have kept me uber busy! Oh my goodness I love these kids already. They have to be the most energetic, enthusiastic bunch ever! They love any and everything we do. They can be a little loud but we're working on it and they're learning. 21 sweeties who love to learn = one happy teacher! That's my biggest fear for the coming week! Labels: back to school.

http://livinglargeinfirst.blogspot.com/2014/08/a-look-into-my-cart.html
Wednesday, August 6, 2014. A Look into My Cart. I'm so excited to link up with the Blog Hoppin'. Ladies to share what I bought during TPT's back to school sale! I'm so lucky my husband was in a good mood last night because when I laid my total on him he didn't freak out on me. I'm so excited about all my new products!
