Spring Break FREEBIE

Aloha blogger ohana,

I am so thankful for Spring Break and a little bit sad that it is almost over. Last year I posted this little freebie. It worked like a charm when my little friends returned from Spring Break. I had them on their desks when they walked in. We started our morning circle as usual and then part way through I dismissed them to go and fill in their Spring Break Postcards. They worked so hard, the room was silent. Then we all came back to the circle rug and shared. In case you would like it here it is:

I am on a bunny role!!

Aloha blog friends,

 

If you are anything like me you ran to Wal-Mart as soon as you read Reagan Tunstall's post on her Easter Finds. If you haven't you can endulge here. Well, I bought her math and literacy stations as well as Sarah Cooley's. They are all super cute! I know that for some of my firsties, manipulatives are what they gravitate towards, so here is a little booklet to help with that. It works perfectly with the Easter egg holder and bunny manipulatives from Wal-Mart, as shown in the picture on Reagan's site. All students need to do is use the manipulatives, draw illustrations to match the picture and solve.
