Inspirational Classroom Prints Freebies

School may be back in full swing, but I am still adding little touches to my kindergarten classroom. I have a new obsession with subway art, prints of inspirational quotes, and brightly colored photo frames.

I created these two prints to frame and add a personal touch to my classroom. The first one reminds me that even on the roughest of days, my life is filled to the brim with blessings and I have so much to be thankful for. You can download this "Too Many Blessings to Count!" print for free.

The second print was created for my classroom prayer space. I teach in a Catholic school so prayer is a part of our daily routine. If you teach in a christian school, or just want a copy of this for your home, it is a sweet reminder of God's love for the young students that we teach. This print is also a free download.

Stop by the Kinder-Craze blog to grab these two free printables and see more personal touches in my kindergarten classroom.

I hope you find yourself with too many blessings to count today as well!

Word Stairs

Do you ever find yourself with an extra 5 minutes?  Here is a quick and easy activity that your students will love!  I call them Word Stairs.

 My students LOVE this simple activity and it's great for reviewing phonics and spelling skills!

I created some Word Stairs that I will be putting in our Word Work tub for Daily 5.

Tens Frame Playdoh Mats

I recently posted on my own blog about what I learned in Kindergarten. For the first two weeks of school all kindergarten teachers have an extra adult in their classroom. That extra adult is either a reading para, pre-school para, or a pre-school teacher. Our pre-school students start school two weeks later.

Here's your hint...

Sight Words

Hey Freebielicious Followers!

We are six weeks into our school year so I'm talking all about sight words on my blog tonight.  I think I talked about boats, as well, but the gist is all about sight words.

I shared this note for parents so that they have some good ideas on how to practice sight words with their children:

Monthly Calendars {number practice}

Each month, my students practice tracing and writing their numbers with these cute monthly calendars. 

This is a great way to reinforce number formation, number order and how numbers represent days.

You can also incorporate patterns into the lesson by having your students follow a specific pattern when tracing the numbers.

You can fold a large piece of construction paper {9”x12”} in half and glue the calendar to the bottom half. Decorate the top half with a fun seasonal art project or hand print art! 

 

Each month has a traceable calendar and a blank calendar to fit the needs of your class!

You can download these calendars in my TpT store! Please let me know what you think!
