Technology Website You Don't Want to Miss and a giveaway....

So, there I was just pinning away on Pinterest when I came upon the coolest website!

You can create fake text messages to help get your point across about an idea or concept.

 Is that cool, or what?! Just click the image above to go to the actual website.

I am sure a ton of you already know about this cool website, but I thought just maybe, some of you didn't!

The pin linked back to Tammy's Technology Tips for Teachers. You can view some more examples and ideas  by clicking HERE!

I would love to use this for teaching Social Studies. I think you could do a lot with dialogue in writing and even having students create their own fake text messages for back to school getting to know you activities and so much more. 

I would love to hear your ideas for how you could use this in your classroom. I will choose one random idea tomorrow to win an item of their choice from my store! Please only comment once and leave your email in the comment!

Annnnnd GO!

Science Graphics Shout Out

So a couple of weeks ago, I emailed Ashley Hughes from, The School Supply Addict, and asked her to create a set of scientific tools. She graciously agreed and they came out so stinkin' cute! I LOVE LOVE LOVE them!

You can click the image below to go purchase them in her shop!

Is this an awesome set, or what!? 

These are going to look so cute in our science notebooks this year! =)

In other news, I hope to finish working on my text feature packet soon! 

Hope everyone had a fabulous Fourth of July!

4th of July Flash Sale!

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

Just click the image below to visit my shop!

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!!
