More Target Dollar Spot Finds and Texas Learning Fun Update

     I love this time of year at the Target Dollar Spot. Each time I go I find something I need for my classroom.


     I am super excited about this chalkboard!!! I can't wait to use it on the first day of school with my boys and my students. I see a parent gift in the future with pictures of the students holding this chalkboard. 

     How adorable are those jumbo school supplies clips. I'm not quite sure what I will use them for yet. They were so cute I couldn't pass them up. 

    Those sticky note pads are going to be part of a teacher gift for the boys' teachers. I've got a couple of ideas in mind.

     I also snagged two pocket charts. One will display my weekly spelling and sight words. I may use the second pocket chart for Boggle words.

     I finally finished updating my Texas Learning Fun unit. The unit has quadrupled in size. The fonts and graphics have been updated. I've added a lesson plan and activities for teaching about Stephen F. Austin. Included is a Texas Symbols fact book that has a student and teacher version with suggested shared reading activities as well as other activities. I also aligned this unit with the Social Studies and ELA TEKS for K-2nd grade.






     Make sure to download the updated file if you already own this. This unit will be on sale for 50% off until Monday evening. You can purchase it here

Texas

We learned about Texas symbols. We colored and wrote about our state bird the mocking bird.


We created a bluebonnet, labeld the parts and wrote about the function of the parts.


We learned about cowboys' clothing and how it meets their needs. Then we colored and labeled his clothing.


We learned about the state motto Friendship and wrote about being a good friend!


We learned drew a pecan tree and how it's needs are met. then we labeled.


We created positional patterns using "Texas" shapes!


We read The Little Red Hen  and Armadilly Chili. Then we compare/contrasted the two stories. We also made chili and graphed if we liked it.


Mrs. Shaw's Most Wanted:

We collected data about our class by making Cowpoke glyphs and then analyzing the data.
