Ready or Not, here BACK TO SCHOOL Comes!

How is it AUGUST already? Ready or not, Back to School is coming! I've been busy readying my classroom and my store! Check out these resources by clicking on them! They're sure to help you get your school year off to a great start!



Make students feel welcome with these Editable Name Plates on their desks! Includes the letters of the alphabet with key pictures and a number line. Just type in student names and they will print on the cards. Prints two cards on a page. 

A 100 chart or 120 chart is a central part of any math display. These cards are seasonal and also come in alternating colors of red and blue.

Teaching kinders and first graders how to do centers at the beginning of the year is a big job. After cleaning up so many centers that the kids had either made a mess with or just plain destroyed, I decided I needed high-interest, simple centers that I could teach once and use over and over. This is a student favorite! To prepare, you type in words and print. They are hidden throughout the seasonal picture. Students use magnifying glasses to find and then record the words. 

Graphing and analyzing data is the goal of this easy and engaging center. You slip the seasonal picture cards into the pocket dice. Students roll, tally, and then graph their results.

To make the hundred chart more interactive, I created these seasonal puzzles for the pocket chart. At first, we use this whole group, adding one number at a time. Later in the year, kids can put the cards in during centers. It also comes with a page to color for even more practice. 

A digital version is also available that works great on iPads.

Bump is a great game to review addition facts. My version is editable so you can practice any skill. Seasonal and anytime options included.

This is a great small group or partner game to review skills. Includes editable cards as well as letters, numbers, and shapes. So versatile!

Do your classroom have a mascot? Pandas are my favorite animal so we are always the Panda Class! We begin the year reading about pandas. I have many other animal passages to choose from. Kids and teachers love these animal passages!


I hope you find these resources fun and helpful. Click on each picture to see it in my store. Have a great start to your year!
