Back to School K-2 Linky!

Hello friends! Welcome back to our monthly I Teach K-2 Linky! Today I am joining my wonderful blogger friends to talk about back to school inspiration and some resources that will definitely SAVE you some time and money!! Make sure to read all the way to the END for an amazing giveaway!!! 

To start off, I'm going to share two of my favorite inspirational quotes for back to school. Feel free to download these, print them, and share them. 

Now on to a FREEBIE just for you! I usually struggle heading back to school trying to find the perfect reading logs for my students. I know there are many free ones, but I wanted one that would meet the needs of my bilingual kiddos. I have two versions for you both in English and Spanish. One is a general reading log with space for date, title, minutes, and signature. Then there's a different version labeled Monday-Thursday where I added the option for students to write a summary of what they read. It helps keep them accountable for their reading and practice their summarizing skills. Click HERE to download these or click the picture below to be redirected to my TpT store for your FREE download.

I also wanted to add a website you will definitely want to visit during back to school season: MPM School Supplies! I am loving their classroom rugs (which are also in English or Spanish if you're looking for bilingual resources) and will be a great addition to any classroom!

Enjoy and hope these help you as we head back to school for an AMAZING 2016-17 school year! 

XOXO Until next time friends! Don't forget to enter below to WIN one of three amazing prizes :)

All of us have been thinking about good ways in which to treat our readers and followers.  We thought hard, and I mean it! Really, really hard… and decided that  we can treat you to our best ideas to work smarter rather than harder… at school and home! I know what it takes to be a great teacher, the stress, the time, the energy… I could go on and on! I also know that we crave time to ourselves and our families.

So, I hope you enjoy these ideas to work smarter and NOT harder..... Read all the way to the end for a FREEBIE and GIVEAWAY opportunity!!!

Something that saves me time, money, and helps keep my classroom organized are command hooks! You can practically use them anywhere, they are easy to use, and can help save your sanity :)
In this picture, I show how I use them to keep my computer center organized. Before, I used to have a bag full of headphones that were tangled, messy, etc. NOW, I have a pair at each computer, and my students are responsible for keeping them organized. This has definitely increased the headphones set's durability and eliminated a stack of broken headphones!

Of course teaching takes a whole lot of work and can be stressful trying to keep up with deadlines after deadlines, and more deadlines. Here are some tips to destress after a long work day.
*Pick up your favorite drink on your way home (Mine is a Starbucks tea)
*Turn on a favorite scent diffuser to relax you at home
*Enjoy some music
*Exercise - go for a jog, stretch, relax
*Watch your favorite TV show
*Cook or pick up your favorite meal
*Read a GREAT book (can be related to teaching or not up to you) I just received The Reading Strategies Book and can't wait to dive in :) Wooooo!

Imagine having word work activities ready for the entire year for your bilingual kiddos?!?! Check out my Word Work YEARLY BUNDLE which is discounted to save you money. This item is in SPANISH so feel free to forward my page to any colleague that you feel NEEDS this in their life!

Now, with September 11th fast approaching, I have a FREEBIE in both English and Spanish for you to enjoy! Click on each picture to get your FREE download!
