My Personal Black Friday Wishlist

Momma with a Teaching Mission 10:54 AM 1 comment
Good Morning!! I am linking up with the whole crew of The Primary Pack-- such an amazing group of Teacher Bloggers!!
So there are 3 parts to this fun linky!! My personal wishlist, my classroom wishlist, and my wishlist for you!

So let's start off with my personal wishlist!
So I haven't COMPLETELY decided on the colors yet, but I am in desperate need of a re-do of our living room. I have spent countless hours at Home Depot comparing paint and flooring, and also on Pinterest looking for inspiration, but nothing has been set in stone yet. So for my Black Friday wishlist,  I am wanting to purchase new flooring and paint (as well as new furniture) for our living room! I am leaning towards grays and sea blues (not sure whether dark or light yet). So hopefully this will happen soon!!

This is my wishlist for my own 1st grade classroom:



Ok, so one of the AMAZING items I have come across is the Mentor Sentence from Ideas by Jivey. This is the item on my wishlist- Ten Weeks for Early Emergent Readers. You can read a blog post about it here. So what made me even look for something like this? Well the kids in my school are grouped by ability. And this year, I have all the below level 1st grade students, and currently there are 14 in this group. I have been really struggling with getting them to write a sentence. So after searching TpT for something that would work for them, I found this... Freebie The Kissing Hand Mentor Sentence. I finally found something that worked for my students! I purchased Ideas by Jivey Seasonal Mini-Unit, and Ten Weeks of Lessons for Emergent Readers (which I use with my higher group of students I teach in the afternoon). Seriously, this has made the difference in my kiddos with their sentences and ability to write them!! Check out her other freebie (The Pigeon finds a Hot Dog) as well!! You can also check out her YouTube video about it---seriously love these mentor sentences!!

And my wishlist for you!!

So I have chosen 3 items from my store that I really think many primary teachers could benefit from! Whether or not you teach in a state that follows the common core, my 1.OA Task Card Bundle is a great value and reviews concepts taught within 1st grade. The task cards are also available in my store seperately, however you will save money (which who doesn't love to save money?!?) by purchasing the bundle! The 2nd item I think many teachers can benefit from is the 2nd edition of my no prep homework pack. Who doesn't cringe about homework!?!? Well you don't have to! This homework pack follows the pattern of 1 page of homework a night--Monday phonics, Tuesday math, Wednesday-send home your own provided printable book and then there is a page (like a reading response) for the students to fill out, and Thursday math facts. I have my homework packs bound and labeled at the top corner so parents are aware which nights the homework is for--my parents love it, as well as the fellow teachers in my grade level!! The 3rd item I think many primary teachers could benefit from is my Bundled Cvc JUST RIGHT Printable Books.  This is one of my more recent items I created for my kiddos. My students are in desperate need of continual practice of skills we have learned in our phonics program (Fundations). So I decided to create decodable printable books for my students to be able to manipulate and mark-up with highlighters--they LOVE it!!
