Weekly Recap 11/30-12/1


Last week I only worked two days, but they were two crazy days! I feel like when the month switches it is always crazy because there is so much to do. I have to print out our monthly calendar/lunch menu for their folders, change the calendar, and change our calendar opening for the computer. We also have to change dramatic play and sensory. Oh and nametags! Like I said, there's so much to do and I'm sure I'm missing other things lol.


I made the kids these little velcro games which I was always so against file folder games LOL, but they did love these. I put them on my TPT. 

Alex made the tree farm with them on Wednesday. She used the teen number set because our kids are pretty good with 1-10 and we will be moving into teen numbers in a couple of chapters so it is a good intro!

Nick and I went to the Cavs game. My dad has season tickets, but he coaches basketball so he asked if we would want to go. We hit up the casino buffet (we love buffets haha) and then headed over to the game.


 On Friday I got to work taking pictures of the entire Kindergarten for our little parent gift tradition. One of our moms sent in all this fun stuff for December so the kids colored while I took the pics. They were having a blast.


I asked them to take a pic of me on the purple (I make a class christmas card), which turned into them getting into the picture and also me having to hold a picture that was made by someone else lol.

Also we had a delivery from the North Pole - inside were elf hats!!! Then we made these cutie reindeer. :) 


I did a terrible job hanging these up lol!!


Also switched our morning work. I went with a half sheet. I always did a full sheet, but I felt like it was a waste of paper. I know there will be haters, but don't worry they still play in the morning lol. I like them to have some responsibility and practice. 


Then on the weekend I had friends over for a little christmas craft party. This is my job share partner!!


My nephew also started a new sport on Sunday! Alright, that is all, talk later!

End of the Year Gifts/Prep

I was so sad to see the end of the year come. I feel like I needed more time with them! I did my normal bag of stuff: memory book, year of crafts, award, and a key chain! These are the bags I use. You can get them on Amazon, but make sure you get the size that is at least 9x12. I've made the mistake of getting the smaller ones before lol. This is the memory book I use. I've changed it over the years, but I just simplified it down. You can edit it in Canva, google slides, or PP! You could also use this, but it's more for one student. I used it as a moving away book, but if you started this early, you could make a book for each student. I did the key chains again.  I do not suggest doing a whole class picture because it's so small. The selfie works so much better! Click here for the tag and click here for the key chain photo frames . Every year I hold onto the crafts. I usually just stack them and then we spend some time at the end of the year passing them out. This year...

SUBTRACTION WINTER CRAFT

If you've been around for awhile you know that I LOVE craftivities. I think they are so much more fun than just the regular day to day lessons and even more than random stations. I typically tend to hate station games and cut out cards because they get lost and what not. #iykyk Over winter break I was trying to prep to come back and I knew I wanted to start doing a math craft every Friday. I am a creature of habit and routine, so I want to start doing Monday-Thursday stations and Friday craftivities. I saw a few subtraction craftivities on pinterest, but they weren't really sparking my interest. I wanted something different than something being eaten and it needed to be winter themed. So penguins on and off an iceberg just popped into my head.   I decided to first let my kids color the penguins. I also made them number the back because I knew they would be all over the ground and no one would know which are theirs. So we did that, but it took longer than expected so I collected...
