4th of July Flash Sale!

I haven't thrown a sale in FOREVER, so I thought I would jump on the bandwagon!

Fonts from KG and Miss Tiina. Star from Krista Wallden!

Hope everyone has a fabulous Fourth of July!! =) 

**Fingers crossed it doesn't rain!**

Text Feature Posters Coming Soon!!

I was so happy with the way the science word wall cards turned out that I thought I would make some Text Feature posters to match the same style! I just might have to do a classroom makeover for this theme and style! I'm kinda lovin' it!


I'm basing these on the ELA Common Core standards so all of the poster words were pulled straight from the K-6 Informational Text standards. I am including two font styles and black and white posters so that you can also use them in your Reading Notebooks. I'm thinking of also creating some smaller ones for all you notebookers! Let me know if you have any suggestions!

On a side note, I'm super bummed that this whole week {including the 4th of July} will be plagued with rain and nasty weather! So much for a good firework show! I was in Key West last year for the 4th and it rained then too! Maybe the weather gods will bless us with no showers on the night of the 4th and we can all enjoy the show!

Anyway, I hope to have these posters completed and posted in a few days!

The Ultimate Science Word Wall Pack!!

I have finally completed my materpiece of science content words! It is by far my largest ever creation and I am super proud of it!! It includes over 375 words and an editable page for adding your own, because this will inevitably miss some of the words you teach. I also included subject area headers to hang as you teach each unit! 



It is available in both of my shops by clicking my buttons below! 


I will be givng this set away free for the seventh person to comment with how you will use these in your classroom! =) 

Get creative people...

IMPORTANT NOTE: I moderate comments so you don't have to add multiple comments if yours doesn't show up. It won't show up til I approve it! If you add multiple, the second one will be deleted!

Good Luck!!

Video Tutorial: Inserting Images into Shapes {Part 2}

Hey sweet friends! I've been working furiously to get these science word wall cards complete but sadly, it's taking me FOREVER!! I am only halfway through with the pack. There are just so many words and my eyeballs can only handle so much staring at my computer screen. Seriously, it makes me dizzy...especially after my stroke last year. I have to work on it chunks...LOL! 

Anyway, someone asked me how to fill the background of a shape with the image inside it as well and so I started playing around with powerpoint and the idea hit me...DUH!! 

So here is my tutorial! 


{The resolution of the image once inserted into the shape isn't perfect, so I've still got to figure that part out, but this is the best I could come up with.}

As always, I'm hoping this was helpful for some of you!

Off to Carowinds tomorrow to chaperone my niece! Wish me luck!! ;)

Video Tutorial: Inserting Images into Shapes

Twice in one day...CRAZY TOWN, I know. 

I had someone ask me today how to insert images into shapes like this so that the image sits inside the shape and doesn't go past the edge:
This is an example of one of my Science Word Wall cards! =)


Hope this was helpful!
