Teacher finds

Hi friends! First day of school tomorrow, and I (think) I am ready!
 Some great teacher finds that I had to get this summer...
These magnetic letters from Really Good Stuff are PERFECT and stay in great condition.. I used them last year and had to get more this year for word work and spelling.  It separates the vowels with red letters, and the consonants with blue letters too. Even the older kids love them!


Who doesn't love smelly stickers?! These I usually buy at the Parent Teacher Store or Trend. I know they are a little more costly than other stickers, but honestly, I don't mind spending the money because the kids go crazy over them!! I have been using them for years now, and I refuse to stop :)


Teacher Created Resources are one of my fav's.. they always have great information and activities.  I purchased this Daily Warm-Ups Reading Book and I love the nonfiction and interesting realistic fiction content that it provides.  I am going to use this for comprehension homework every week :)

For just over 2 bucks, you can get this cute Happy Birthday chart! My first year teaching I found a lot of stuff on amazon.com and scholastic.com.  I will use this again this year because it acts as a white board (but warning: it was a little difficult to get off the previous dry erase marker!)

If I find more, I will be sure to send them your way :) I want to have a GIVEAWAY once I reach 200 followers ;)

    I'll take it because I never did respond to your offer when I broke my arm in May/June

    I spent so much time rubbing away old dry erase marker marks at the beginning of this year. I thought it was called dry ERASE markers for a reason?
