CVC Word Builders

We've been working really hard on learning our CVC words! One of our favorite activities is building words. We practice a lot with our magnetic letters up on the whiteboard. We've also been using our word builder printables to practice independently. 

We're working hard on our cutting and pasting skills!

Head on over to Miss Kindergarten to read more about Word Builders and to grab an -at family freebie!



Meet Caitlin from Kindergarten Smiles

Hi all!! I am Caitlin from Kindergarten Smiles! I have been blogging for a little over 2 years now and love it!! I just wish I had the time to blog more often!! I have been teaching kindergarten for 7 years and even though I occasionally consider moving to first grade, I am not sure if I ever will!! I love my kindergartners! 
I am SO honored to be a part of Freebielicious...let me tell you..these are some of the best ladies EVER!! I have actually never met any of them in 'real life' yet, but I definitely will be soon and I can't wait!!

So, a little bit about me...I definitely have this thing called FOMO (fear of missing out) and this especially applies to anything to do with my family! I don't want them to do anything without me! It actually used to be worse...I couldn't even miss trips to Costco ;)
I have 3 sisters- Meghan, Colleen, and Bridget
and I became an aunt 10 months ago! I have a beautiful niece named Savanna who I am extremely obsessed with!
I am also obsessed with college football!! I went to Auburn University (War Eagle!) and I make sure to go back for at least one football game every season. I just went up last weekend and saw the best game EVER!! We played Georgia and it literally came down to the last 28 seconds. Never been so nervous in my life---and we won!! Look at all this orange...we have the best fans/family!!

Here are some other random facts about me:
- My favorite food is tacos
- I love cupcakes! Like REAL cupcakes (Magnolia bakery or Georgetown cupcakes..YUM!!)
- Played soccer and swam my entire life! Even went to high school state finals in both (and won in soccer). Also ran track--half mile was my thing :)
- Still lock my door when I go to sleep..not sure what I am afraid of haha
- LOVE my church
- My weekends usually consist of catching up on TIVO!
- Favorite color is yellow but I won't eat any yellow candies or gummies...yuck!
- I've always wanted my nickname to be CC (Cici) come on people...start calling me that! ;)
- I have an awful memory but then sometimes I can remember exact conversations/phone numbers..it's weird!
- Didn't wear any makeup til my freshman year of college--and still don't really like wearing any!
- Don't love slow drivers
- I wish I could start college over again
- Chocolate milk <3
- If I was a baseball player and had to choose my song to walk up to home plate, I  might choose MmmBop! 
-Cockroaches disgust me
- When I love a song, I listen to it on repeat like all day!!!
- Every year I say I am going to move to try something new (I usually say to Atlanta), but then I never do! So if you are hiring let me know ;)

Are you sick of me yet? PROBABLY!!
So let's get to my freebies!! I have a couple that should get you started in the winter/holiday spirit!! 




Thanks for letting me introduce myself to you all! Would love for you to stop by my blog!

Meet Marsha from A Differentiated Kindergarten

Ok, so I’m kind of feeling like it’s the first day of school.  I’m a little nervous, a bit apprehensive that I might screw up, but over-all excited to have the chance to introduce myself to all of the wonderful readers that take the time to follow all of us here on Freebielicious.






My name is Marsha M. Moffit McGuire  (I often joke with Annie that she's my long lost Moffit/Moffatt sister).  and I am the fingers behind  A Differentiated Kindergarten.  I’ve been blogging now for a little over a year and a half. Wow!  What a whirlwind adventure.   I can honestly admit that I didn’t have a clue what I was doing when I started out.   All I knew was that I was passionate about getting my classroom on the road to differentiated instruction, and I figured, if I put it out there to the public, maybe there would be others as interested in it as I was. 



Little did I know that along the way I would develop amazing friendships with other teachers I have never even met in person.  It truly is amazing how small the world has become thanks to the Internet and the blogging world.  Some of the best people I've met has been right here at Freebielicious.  






My inspiration, my desire to be a better teacher, a better mom and a better wife is  my family.    We are a family of M's.  (I always thought that it was weird when people named their kids all with the same first initial and now I'm one of those weird moms too.)  There is MacKale, McCoy, MaGill, Mike and me . . . Marsha.   

I am truly blessed beyond measure by these wonderful men that share their lives with me.  We live in the woods of Northern Michigan (not to be confused with the Upper Peninsula) where we can enjoy the outdoors, swimming, golfing, skiing (although I hate the snow), hiking and exploring.



I kind of think of having three boys as just a lot of noise with some dirt and stink mixed in for good measure.  They keep me hopping and on my toes.  I am traveling from one sport to another to another . . . but they are also my best source of inspiration.


They are the poster children for differentiation.  They are completely different from each other, different strengths, different interests and different learning styles.  I look at them and know  . . . 'this is why I differentiate my instruction.' 

And it's also why I love sharing products and ideas with you that will help you differentiate your instruction.  So for your pleasure, here are a couple of items to get you through the holidays.

This is an easy way to differentiate for your students who are still working on letters as well as those that are ready to tackle sight words.  Roll, Say, Keep Gingie is a class favorite for sure.


And because I LOVE all things that have to do with sensory tables . . . here's a little thing to use with (or without) your holiday sensory table.  


I like to put pine boughs or shredded colored paper in during the holidays.  This activity will have your students sorting for medial CVC sounds.  


It sure was great to get to know you all.  Please make sure you stop my blog to say hello.
