TPT Kinderland One Day Sale...WooHoo

WooHoo.....you read it right... I am linking up with some Kinderland friends for a one day TPT sale.For one day only, Sunday June 30th, you can grab some great deals and get a head start on getting ready for August. I know, I know...we just got out for the summer. I'm planning on getting everything set up now with my classroom decorations and beginning of the year activities so I don't feel the time crunch in August. Last summer I made some classroom theme sets. These are not activities, they are decorations such as nameplates, tags, labels, table numbers etc with a theme. I currently have Bees, Ocean, Red, and Monsters. The labels in these sets are NOT editable...sorry. Since that time I have created one new item that does have editable labels. It is a colorful dot set which includes a word wall, font, and a variety of labels and tags that you can edit in PowerPoint.
Here are some of the items on sale from my store:

Let's Get Hoppin' uses the colors aqua, green, pink, black and white with a frog theme.

All About Monsters is aqua and green with polka dots and lots of cute monsters.

All About Red is red and white with a ladybug theme throughout.

The Beach/Ocean theme set is a colorful set with an ocean/beach theme throughout. Colors include bright pink, aqua, yellow, orange and green.

The Bee Happy set is a sunny yellow set with lots of bees buzzing through.

I also have a set called Blue and Red Polka Dots, which is all fun polka dots.

You can grab these sets for under $4 during the sale!! 

I also have some of my word walls currently set as FREEBIE's in my store so be sure the check that out!

My monthly homework packets for Kindergarten will also be discounted for the sale so if you are missing any of the months you can grab them at a discount.

In case you hadn't read I started a new blog for my clip art, blog designs, and avatars. I would love for you to check it out. It is called Uniquely Yours Blog Designs. I am taking blog design orders for mid July and August. If you are considering a blog makeover or beginning a brand new blog I hope you will consider my work. I am also taking orders for avatars drawn by me.  :)

Hope everyone is having a wonderful summer!!

Happy Blog Hopping Day!!

Do you decorate your classroom with a theme? This year I am using a frog theme, since 9 of my 11 students will be boys, lol. I created a classroom set and got all of my bulletin boards done back in June....now that is a FIRST!! I am not a procrastinator, but even for me that was early. I still need to add some new labels. You can download these labels for free in my TpT Store

Happy Blog Hopping!!

New Classroom Design Giveaway - Monster Set

I finished the aqua and green classroom set and decided to make it a monster theme. I am giving away one set here on my blog on Sunday. I used the rafflecopter the last few times but then I got to thinking about making you follow me all around cyber-land to have an entry. That is not really my style....so while I am very appreciative if you follow my blog and stores your entry will just be made by leaving a comment below...sound good?

I had a special request for a 'bee' theme classroom set so that will be next. Then I will do a safari/jungle theme. I am also drafting out a year of homework packets for Kindergarten. Busy, busy, I'm just full of ideas, lol.

We have a brand new math curriculum for next year so I need to make sure the activities align with the lessons being taught. I went to an in-service today and I go back tomorrow. It is all about the new math curriculum.

I also spent 3 days cleaning out my classroom cupboards getting everything organized. My classroom is super organized and tidy but I had secret hidden stashes of clutter...shhh don't tell. Now every cupboard is organized too and my file cabinets are all cleaned out. My recycle bin was brimming! I think I had saved every extra copy of papers since dinosaurs walked the Earth, very outdated and things I will never ever use again! They are gone now! I also changed all my bulletin boards for next year.

What changes will you make to your classroom for next year?

Make sure you leave your email address if you are entering to win the Monster Set. I will email it as a PDF file attachment. Have a great week!

New Item Finished!! Yahoo!!

I found out last week that I am staying in the same building for next year and I am super-dee-duper happy! I love the people I work with!! Our enrollment is down so one teacher has to change buildings. Selfishly, I am glad it isn't me, but the teacher leaving is so nice. It's sad she has to leave. It appears I will start the year with more students than I did this year but I may not have to move between two grade levels...I think I am in K all day....which is A-OK with me. So for a while I have been working on a classroom set that has coordinated labels, word wall etc. Then I kind of stopped because I thought I was changing grade levels. When I found out I get to stay in K, it kind of gave me the kick to get it done. I think it is super cute!`I have it loaded onto Teacher's Notebook, and it is on sale....so is everything in my store. About a million moons ago when I first went to college I was an Art Education major and I still LOVE to make things and draw. Someday I hope to post some of my doodles as clip art...maybe this summer. Here is how the Let's Get Hoppin" set turned out....

You can also grab this freebie from the set...

Grab your freebie from Teachers Notebook. My friend wants a safari/zoo/wild set so I will post that as soon as it is done. Have a wonderful week!!

Wedding Cake a Success...Freebie Labels...and Compound Words Activity

My niece got married yesterday and the wedding was beautiful. Even having two sick kids this week ...UGH...did not keep my daughter and I from getting the wedding cake finished. It turned out pretty and tasted super yummy. We stalkedwatched people as they ate it...lol....and saw lots of "clean plates" and heard tons of good comments. I guess most people didn't know we made the cake, which was a good thing, in case it toppled over or tasted ucky. I have oodles of pictures on my camera but still cant find the cord to upload them. I think I took more pictures of the cake than the bride. HA! She looked beautiful though. Here are a few from my phone....

And another.....

And one more....

A busy but fun day!

Today I made a new activity for a friend and I have added it to TpT. It is a Compound Word Pocket Chart activity. It would also be fun as a group game, having the children try to find their partner/compound word.

Compound Word Pocket Chart Activity

I am playing around with different themes for my classroom for next year. I think I am going to do black, white, and yellow polka dots with sunflowers. However I also like green, pink, black and frogs. I made this today to see which looked better. I'm still undecided but you can download these labels for free in my TpT Store

Report cards are due Friday so I may not post for a day or two. Have a great week, especially to those of you lucky enough to be on Spring Break!!
