Meet-the-teacher night and TPT sale!

It is extremely hard for us to believe school starts in a week and 2 days—yes we are including those two precious days!  ;)  As we mentioned in our last post this is the very first year we are having a meet-the-teacher night. We’re thrilled to meet our kiddos and parents prior to day one to ease some of the first day jitters.  

Sooo…..due to this new experience, we decided to create a few items to go along with our “Safari” theme to help on this special night.  We are sharing the pack with you as a {FREE} download. Some of the items include: a PTA signup sheet, a transportation list, a helper signup sheet, goodie tags, a safari match game and more.  Click on the picture below to download the pack from TPT. We hope you can find it useful!

As many of you already know TPT is having a HUGE sale the 12-13th. We are debating back and forth as to what items we have to purchase! Haha. We are including all of our packs in the sale so please stop by and grab one of our items for a great discounted price. Have fun shopping!

 

Classroom Themes Continued....

Hi all! It seems like the school year is slowly starting to creep back up on us. I got a new carpet and meeting chair for my classroom this year and I dropped it off at school yesterday becuase I just had to get it out of my car. Then I got thinking...."Am I ready to come in here and start working in just a few short weeks? Where did summer get to?!" Looks like I better get working on all of those 'projects' I wanted to get done before the start of school!

Anyways, we are excited to announce that our 'safari-themed' Back-to-School Pack is up in our TpT Store! Be sure to head on over there and check it out!

We will give a Back-to-School pack away to the first 3 people who leave us a comment. Since we are always on the look-out for cute classroom ideas, leave us a blog or a website that we should check out. Let us know if you want the pirate pack or the safari pack and be sure to leave your e-mail address.

If you didn't get a chance to grab one of the Back-to-School packs for free, here are two freebies for you to use with your kiddos this year.

Heidi, at My (Not So) Elementary Life, has been doing a series of posts on classroom management. We just love heading to her blog for some great ideas. She has some awesome resources and lucky for us....they are pirate-themed! There are so many cute things that we will be picking up in the future. Be sure to check her out if you haven't already!

Val and I have so many ideas running through our head about what we want to make for our classroom this year. So, we are currently have a few units in the process of being made. Be sure to check us out next week for some updates!

Classroom Themes

Thanks for checking out our page, we're excited to finally join the world of blogging! We have used many great ideas and resources from your blogs and have been anxiously awaiting to share our ideas with you as well.

As we continue to plan for the upcoming school year, this will be the first year that we will tackle the task of creating a classroom theme- one will be using a pirate theme and the other, a safari theme. The hardest part? We find this to be very overwhelming. The best part? We have decided to swap themes with each other the following year so we can re-use everything we have created along the way. With that being said, here is a sneak peak at our 'Pirate-Themed Back-to-School Pack'. In this pack you will find

- a classroom contract with accompanying rules
- a classroom scavenger hunt
- a getting to know you activity
- a character buildng activity (using food, mmm!)
- 2 math review games
- a world builder



Since this is our first unit, you can grab it for *FREE* by visiting our TpT Store

 

Come back soon for a peak at our 'Safari-Themed Back-to-School Pack' and more giveaways!
