Introducing Blog Favorites

Hello Friends!

Am I the only one who is just about done with Winter??? We've already surpassed our normal snow totals and it has been c.o.l.d! I'm over it. I'm completely over having indoor recess, as well. Poor lil' things are dying to play in the snow and it's been impossibly cold, then it all melts....repeat. Ugh!!!

We are about to start our Transportation Unit. I'm not really excited for our unit, but I know once we start talking about our mini box cars the Hoppers excitement will build until it's contagious or until I feel the need to pull my hair out. I put together a Wake-Up Work Companion Pack for my On the Go Unit.

The other task I've decided to undertake is a looooong time coming. I've received A LOT of requests to take my individual blog freebies and compile them into one file. Well, friends, I've started. Here is the first in a series....

These are not new files, just individual things that are now in one easy to download file.

Happy New Year!

Before I say anything I just want to say how much I appreciate all the comments and emails. Everyone has said such kind things and wished our family well. I can't describe how blessed and grateful I am! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

WoW, what a difference a month makes! My life has been consumed (for the better) by this little man! Cooper and I are doing well. My husband just went back to work this week so each day is a new adventure! Just thought I'd share a couple pictures of my little mister.

I just love him to pieces! While I love staying at home with him, I am also constantly thinking about my Kinder-Hoppers! I miss them sooooo much!! I can't wait to bring Coop to meet them. I've started a new Mommy blog, not much on there now, if you're interested you can check it out here...http://thefalliblemommy.blogspot.com/

I haven't forgot about my blog...I'm just finding it a bit difficult to create things, especially when I am not at school to be inspired. This morning I took a little time to create this Snowman Adding Book and a patterning worksheet. Hopefully, you will be able to use them in your classroom. I hope your new year is starting off as wonderful as mine!

Enjoy!

Winter Wonderland

When we return from Winter Break, I like to do a unit on Winter. My Kinder-Hoppers love snow, but it is usually too cold for us to really enjoy it. I really try to make the unit a lot of fun!


All the printables can also be found in one file here...

Snow Unit

Books we love...
      


My students LOVE creating these snow people after we read Snowballs. They work in co-operative groups and really have to make decisions together. I take out as much "stuff" as I can so they can decorate. It is truly an activity that they adore. The final product isn't always pretty or cute, but the experience they gain from completing the task is nothing short of awesome!

Math Activities/Worksheets
We make this graph...

Each month we make a math journal page for our memory books. We made snowmen using our fingerprints in white paint. Then we decorated them using more paint. Once they were dry, we used felt snowflakes for the final touches!
