A Flip-Flap Fascination and an IDEA!!!

Hi Everyone.... I'm sitting here on the couch with my little one while he sleeps...He gashed his eyebrow open this morning at school and needed 12 stitches!  OUCH!  It was not a pretty sight, but he didn't even flinch..he is such a trooper!!!  So, while I am sitting here watching him sleep and think about how adorable he is, I thought I would tell you about my newest addiction or fascination...

Let's call it....

Flip-Flap Fascination!!!!

LOL

I think I may be completely OBSESSED! It's kind of like my chocolate addiction...I can't eat just one piece of chocolate...I keep going...and going...and going..and that's what has transpired with my Flip-Flap Book fascination :)

So I thought I would share my newest creations..AND would love to hear some of your ideas for my next one.  I love when teachers say...oh..this would be cute and then and idea pops in my head and that's the end of it....I'm hooked until I finish it :)

 So..if any of these catch your eye, head on over to my TPT Store for the HUGE Teacher Appreciation Sale TODAY and TOMORROW!  Up to 30% off of everything item in my store :)

I hope you have some time to check it out!

Now....Do you have an idea for a Flip-Flap Book I can make??  If so, leave a comment below and I will pick two winners to win their choice of my newest flip-flap books.

Hugs,

Phases of the Moon and a GIVEAWAY!

I was like a kid today!  I had so much fun teaching...which I have been feeling a lot lately!  I have been inspired and my teaching rejuvenated and I'm excited about it :)  What a great feeling...

We have been learning about the Phases of the Moon over the last week.  The other day we made the phases of the moon with oreos...ummmm....YUMMY!  I'm addicted..I digress :)  

We were scientists, so we used our goggles, made the phases and then ate them up....I wish I could show you some pictures of my cute little kiddos in their goggles but I can't so you are stuck with me!

This Oreo Phases of the Moon Sheet was made by the very talented Hilary Lewis!  You can check out her TPT Shop Here!

Then today we made these... Moon Flip-Flap Books!!!! 

L-O-V-E them :)

We started with a Partner Reading of The Moon.  After they finished reading the text to each other, they told their partner their two favorite facts about the moon.  Then they began to create their flip-flap books.   Here are a few photos of our Work in Progress..

This is our new Moon bulletin board display...The best part of this whole day is my Assistant Principal walked in when we were doing this activity...BAM!  Unannounced Observation and ALL HIGHLY EFFECTIVE MARKS...Can I get a WOOOOHOOOO!!

This is a close-up of the bulletin board...

 Here is one of my student's Moon Flip-Flap Books completely done!  What a great job they did!

Then they saw my Space Flip-Flap Book on my desk and begged me to let them make it!  We are only really focused on the Moon...but how do you say no when they want to learn :)

So...The Giveaway! Complete the Rafflecopter below and I will pick 2 WINNERS because I am so excited that I got observed during this activity!  It rocked and I received highly effective in all domains...yay!!!!

If you want to get your hands on this unit now, check it out in my TPT Shop...

LANDFORMS Review, a WINNER, & a GIVEAWAY!!

Good Sunday Morning :)  I hope you are all having a fabulous weekend!!!  I wanted to share something that I am hoping to do this week with my class. 

We finished learning about Landforms but as we get to the end of the year, I am always for looking for ways to review different skills with my kiddos and let them have a little fun in the process...and this is going to be a great way to assess what they remembered about Landforms and Bodies of Water.

I, of course, had to create a Flip-Flap book because I am obsessed just lovin' them right now....can you tell?? LOL

So here they are in all their cutie patootie loveliness :)

Each page flips open and there is a landform picture and lines to write a description about each landform.  There are 8 landforms included in this book.  But I also made a Landforms Flip-Flap Book that can be personalized with any landforms that the students/teacher chooses.  My little ones are going to love it :)  The Bodies of Water Flip-Flap Book includes a river, lake, waterfall, and ocean.  If you are interested in this unit, you can check it out in my TPT Store :)

Would you like to WIN my newest Landforms and Bodies of Water Unit??  If so, complete the Rafflecopter below!!!!!

End of the Year Project and a FLASH GIVEAWAY!!!!

Hi Everyone... I don't know about you...but I am just about ready for the end of school to get here...but I have a waaaaays to go!  We don't get out until the END of JUNE..yep you read that correctly!  Anywhooooo...why dwell :)

So I made a couple of projects for the end of the year that I thought I would share with you :)

I wanted to do some type of project that my students could do on the First Day of School and then again on the Last Day of School to show their growth in their writing and how they have "literally" grown by adding a picture of them to the project..so.....

From Beginning to End 

was born :)

And for those of you who know me by now...it has to contain some type of Flip-Flap Book...LOL

I have made them for SECOND and THIRD grade already and the rest of the grades will be uploaded soon.  I think I will only being doing first grade through fifth grade.

It really is cute!  I can't wait to use it this year as the end of the year project and next year for both!

Here are some examples of the project...

This is what the Flip-Flap Book looks like when each page is opened!

The Flip-Flap Book for the End of the Year has different sentences in the booklet that has the students writing about memories and things they have learned...and of course, a picture on the last page of the book to show how they have grown through the year.

This is the example of the Third Grade project!

So...If you haven't planned your End of the Year Activity yet, I hope you give this unit a try!

So...THE FLASH GIVEAWAY.....

I will give away 2 of my Units!  Just follow the Rafflecopter.
