Summer Activities K-2

Hello friends! Welcome back to this month's K-2 I Teach Linky. I am very excited to be joining my fellow blogger friends to share spectacular ideas with our readers. Be sure to read all the way to the end to grab a FREEBIE and enter our giveaway!!!

This month I am sharing a few ideas about my favorite time of the year.....SUMMER!!! Summer is the perfect time to recharge and prepare for an exciting new school year! During summer the days can drag on by with nothing to do. Do not fret, I have a quick and easy solution for those days with nothing to do. Simply print these "Summer Activities" wheels and use them at home with your own kids.





Since I don't have kids YET (due in August with my first), I print these out and hand out to my wonderful students. They LOVE assembling them and then reading through activities they can look forward to in the summer. What's best is that I have them in English and Spanish for those who need the bilingual version to send home!

Need more summer freebies??? Find my FREE Summer Bingo HERE.
Want to send home meaningful work students can work on independently? Check out my Bilingual Summer BUNDLE HERE



Now head on over to read more ideas perfect for this time of the year! Hope you enjoy them and don't forget to enter into our giveaway for a chance to win a TpT giftcard. Until next time friends! XOXO

End of the Year Resources

Hello everyone! Welcome back to this month's linky. I am very excited to be joining my fellow blogger friends to share spectacular ideas with our readers. Be sure to read all the way to the end and grab a FREEBIE and enter our giveaway!!!

This month I am sharing a few ideas about planning for the end of the year and resources you can use as you prepare for this bittersweet time.

The end of the year is always the perfect time for reflections. Students and teachers both need time to reflect on all that's happened throughout the year.  As a teacher, I like to sit and jot down everything that's gone great throughout the year, and possibilities of improvement for the following year.

For students, this is a perfect time for an End of the Year Memory Book they can complete and share with their peers. Check out my BUNDLE in both English and Spanish. Here are a few pages from the memory book my students create. You can pick as many pages as you need or give them one each day as you countdown to the last day of school!




Besides a memory book, I LOVE to decorate my bulletin boards with pennants my students create. Here's a FREEBIE for your kiddos to use.




Now time for a giveaway! Enter below, then head on over to read more ideas in this month's linky!!! Until next time, friends!

March Summary Craft (1-2 Bilingual)

Hello everyone! Welcome back to this month's linky. I am very excited to be joining my fellow blogger friends to share spectacular ideas with our readers.

This month I am sharing all about a cute craft perfect for this time of year with the kiddos. Before my students complete the "Lucky Summary" necklace, I use St. Patrick's Day videos to introduce the holiday. See the links below for some kid-friendly St. Patrick's Day videos.


Click here for a list of St. Patrick's Day videos. Find out the history, explore crafts, and enjoy a few festive read alouds. 

Now on to a FREE craft for you to use: "Lucky Summary" Necklace. For this craft, you will have students read a book or have a read aloud. After that, talk about what makes a good summary. I have included Title, Characters, Setting, Problem and Solution. Students will fill out each shamrock. You can differentiate if needed by having some students just illustrate on the shamrock and others write in complete sentences.

After the shamrocks are completed, students will need yarn and a green plastic straw cut into 1 inch pieces.

Students can assemble these on the yarn and wear throughout the day. Click the picture below to download an exclusive freebie for my blog readers. Available in both English and Spanish. 


Enjoy! Check out my store for other March/St. Patrick's Day products and keep clicking through the linky below for more ideas from many amazing bloggers!

February Resources for the Bilingual Classroom

Hello everyone!! I am happy to be back with February resources to use in your bilingual classroom!


Students love to exchange Valentine Cards this time of the year and get excited about the cards and candy they receive. However, I wanted to make this experience a bit more meaningful for them. I created this Valentine Card on a card stock paper. Students rotate around the room writing an adjective or good characteristic for each student's card. When the students return to their desk, they get to read the nice comments left by their peers. They can also color it in and decorate. I send these to get laminated and they have a keepsake of this special day. You can download the template here or click the picture. 



Do you like to keep your writing centers timely and fresh? Check out this great writing center which includes: 18 vocabulary cards, lists, sentence builders, Valentine's cards, and seasonal themed paper. Click the picture or click HERE to see more details about this resource. 




And last but not least, here's a free sample of my Valentine's Day Sentence Sort. It includes anchor charts, cut/paste activities, and a sentence sort. This is just a small preview of a bigger unit you can purchase. Check out the freebie here.



Check out the full product here.

Is there a special tradition or activity you and your kiddos have for Valentine's Day? Please let me know in the comments, I'd love to hear your ideas.

Until next time friends :)
