New Classroom!

Adventure is Out There!

I love my new classroom and my new students! I have been so busy with all of the fun lessons we been having that I haven't had any time to post pictures of my new classroom! My new school is all about Field Trips and engaged learning. "Adventure is Out There" seemed like the perfect fit for a theme!

I created the Up house and balloons on Cricut Design Space.

Here is a closer look:

I bought my Cricut Explore Air just for this purpose =D

I also cut some banners from colorful maps from the dollar store:

Differentiating Sight Word Instruction with COLOR!

I have been looking for a way to keep track of my students Sight Words for a long time, and I am proud to announce that I have found a way to solve all of my Sight Words Problems with my very first TPT product! Check it out on my TPT store.

I printed all 220 Dolch Words on colored paper and taped it to my classroom ceiling. It not only looks beautiful, but it also helps my students learn to their level!

Each color is for a grade level.

orange: pre-primer

pink: primer

blue: first grade

purple: second grade

green: third grade

I then have my students go around the room "stargazing" and trying to find the sight words they are working on!
