Glyph Directions/Pictures

Hey everyone! I am sorry I haven't posted in a while! I have been super busy! This past weekend (3 day weekend!) I traveled through 5 states two times, driving almost 20 hours total with one of my besties! We traveled from Kansas to Wisconsin to visit her family! It was so much fun, but I am little behind because of it!

Here is what we have been up to: GLYPHS! We have been working on our family unit and we wrapped it up by making a glyph about our family using our house. Here are some pictures:

Sorry the pictures are turned around! I don't know what happened! Also of course here are the directions so you can make your own: Directions!!!

I hope everyone has a GREAT rest of your week! We have A LOT of data meetings the next two days! I love looking at data and see my kids growth, so I am pretty excited!

Family Freebie Activities

We are getting ready to start our unit on family, Indians, and Pilgrims! I like to start off talking about our own families first. Then we are able to compare and contrast our families to the Indians and Pilgrims. I finally broke down and bought some clip art, so my activities look REALLY good. We will be first reading some books about family and completing the following writing activity:

We will also be making one of my favorite activities, GLYPHS! We will be making a house. Here are the directions:

I will put up pictures when we get these done!

Finally we will be talking about the roles each family member has in a family. I made this cute worksheet to go along with that:

Well we have a short week this week! We have an early release for PD on Wednesday and then we are off Friday for Veterans Day. My girlfriend Crystal and I are traveling to Wisconsin to visit her family. I am very excited to wear all my cute boots! It isn’t quite cold enough to wear them here in Kansas yet. I hope everyone has a great week!

P.S If you have not checked out Mrs. Lemons subtraction activities you should! I plan on using these to review during our small group math time!

Organization

Ok so anyone that knows me knows that I love to be organized (when I have the time). I have been creating some math games that go along with our current games in our EDM resource. The problem was I didn't have any space to put the games in my room. I went to Joan's and got an organizer and used clear labels and here is what it looks like...

I always feel better when I am organized. I am currently working on a sight word organization tool, I will share when I am done. How do you get organized??
