New product on Teachers Pay Teachers

Today I am blogging about my latest Teachers Pay Teachers product!!
But before I get into the details I wanted to write about why I chose to make this item.

As teachers we are all aware of how busy a school day is. On most days the traffic in and out of the classroom is constant! Individual students leave for extra one assistance and trips to the bathroom, students arrive late and some leave early and don't forget about whole class trips to the library, computers and gym...the list could go on and on. With so much activity in and out of the room I found that it was important that all students, staff and parents had a way to easily locate our class when we were not in the classroom. That is when I purchased the poster shown below.

It was great! I though my problem was solved, and for the most part it was, but I soon came to realize that the psoter lacked many locations that I needed. As you can see in the picture, I ended up filling in the one empty apple with computers, but I still needed more room. The size of the poster became the second problem I had with it. I just didn't like giving up that much bulletin board space when I could have been displaying student art.

Thus I decided to create my own We Are... poster set. I am very excited about it!

 

 

It includes 14 different location labels:

- in the cafeteria and in the kitchen

- in P.E. and in the gym
- in an assembly               - on the playground

- in the Library                 - on a field trip
- in the art room               - in the science lab
- in the music room          - in the computer lab
- in room # ___               - the classroom

And two "We are..." posters:
- printer friendly black and white
- grey chevron

 

I suggest laminating the labels and poster for durability.

 

I plan on using Velcro dots to attach the location labels on the We Are... poster.

Can't wait to use this new poster set this school year.

I would love to read your input, so please leave me a comment!!

New TPT Product

It's another great day...I posted my second item on Teachers Pay Teachers today.

Need a fun activity to teach your students the location of objects in the classroom?? This scavenger hunt is just the thing you need! Students move around the class reading clues, locating classroom objects and completing a writing sample of "All About Me" at the same time.

I already have my copy printed, cut out and ready for the first day with my students.

This is what the student page and sentence prompts look like. I will collect these after the scavenger hunt and use them as writing samples for the beginning of the school year. It will also be a great way to learn about my new students!! Check it out and let me know what you think!!

1st TPT item "Finally" posted

Wow what I night!! My dear friend Angela joined me once again to help me through the steps needed to post my first TPT item. Four and a half hours later I managed to download a new program to work on, asked way to many questions, said a few choice words when things weren't going my way and still managed come come out with a great looking product and a smile on my face. So here it is...

I love the way the cover page came out! You can find this item for FREE in my TPT store, just scroll down my blog and look for the link on the right hand side on the page. Thanks for reading...and please don't forget to leave me feedback when you check out my item.
