500 Followers Winners!

I'm going to keep this short.  We had a long, hot morning at the farm and lunch with my hubby.  Unfortunately most of the napping occurred in the van so no nap for this mommy. : (

But here are the winners of the 500 Followers Giveaway!



Winners be sure to check your emails!

Thank you to everyone who entered and helped spread the word!

The Crayon Box That Talked Color Words Packet

We  had a long, fun weekend but that also meant I was incredibly busy.  I wouldn't trade the time with my family for anything!  Well except this whole potty training business.  This is going to take a while. : (

I did manage to get some things created though.  I finished up my first take home packet to go in my stores.  This one goes along with the book The Crayon Box That Talked by Shane Derolf.  The packet is all about color words.  While it was made to be a take home packet, you could use the activities to practice color words in your classroom as well.




If you are interested, stop by my TN shop or TpT store and check it out!

Remember to help spread the word about the 500 Followers Giveaway!  It is almost over!

Stay tuned for the winners, some rest product review and some freebies this week!

I am loving summer!  Having more time to spend entering giveaways has definitely meant winning more amazing products!!

I won the big prize for Little Priorities 500 Followers Giveaway.  I got her Reach for the Stars Data Folder, a unit of choice from her TpT store (I picked her Name Unit!), and a $10 TpT gift card!  I can't wait to use all of these products.  The name unit in particular will be so helpful for my little ones at the beginning of the year!

Mrs. H over at Once Upon a First Grade Adventure came out with an editable version of an All About Teacher book.  I was lucky enough to be one of the first two commenters!  (See not doing laundry pays off!)  I make a All About Mrs. Irwin book every year but this years is going to be super cute!
I was one of the first three commenters over at Teacher Mom of 3.  (Did I mention my dishes need to be done too?)  I scored these great beginning blends posters!  This is something I need to work on more with my K's.
I won a Melissa and Doug magnetic calendar from Adventures in Kindergarten!  I'm already brainstorming uses for this!
I got my second prize from Mrs. Standford's Class giveaway!  The Super Summer Writing Craftivity form Coffee, Kids, and Compulsive Lists is beyond cute!  I can't wait to try it out!


Castles and Crayons
I was a winner for Castles and Crayons Birthday Bash!  I picked out her Blends and Diagraphs Cards!  Can you tell this is something I want to work on a lot more with my kiddos?

As you can tell I have been very blog lucky....now if only I could do this with the lottery!  Hubby wouldn't mind the messy house so much!

Stay tuned!  I am finishing up a back to school pack complete with my own drawings (scary I know!) and will be posting some freebies from it!

Oh and if you have never tried out Dropbox to store your files online, please use this link to get yours started for free!  It is wonderful!

Target Find and Giveaway Reminder!

I just wanted to pop in and share a few finds from the Target dollar spot.  They had these awesome chair covers for Star Students.  I bought a couple because let's be realistic, they cost a dollar.  I'm sure they aren't the thickest material but I am okay with that!  I also found a lot of sticker packs, name tags, and more!

Remember to check out my giveaway that ends tonight.  Please help spread the word!!  If you do blog about it, leave me the link and you might just get a surprise!

Good luck!

Time for a Giveaway!

I'm sure most of you already know of Deedee Wills from Mrs. Wills Kindergarten.  If not, you don't know what you've been missing!  I was fortunate enough to get to proof part of her Writing Work Stations Set.  She was kind enough to give me a copy to share with one of you!


Writing-Work-Stations-The-Complete-Set.jpg


This set is truly amazing!  I can't wait to use it this year!  This set has vocabulary cards to go with each month, different types of paper for writing, and "I Can" charts for the different kinds of writing.  This will be an awesome resource for my kiddos to use during Daily 5 writing time.

This giveaway is done Friday at 12:01am so hurry and enter now!

(If you just can't wait you can go grab the complete set in Mrs. Wills store!)

I'm A Winner!

I have been fortunate enough to win a few giveaways/contests lately and thought I would do a quick review!


First up is this awesome classroom management packet to go with my Hollywood/movie theme from Mrs. Jones!  She did a great job!  This kit would be a great purchase if you are doing this theme.  She has other themes available as well.


Next I won, not once, but TWICE over at Mrs. Stanford's Class!



I won a free product from Tori over at Tori's Teacher Tips.  I picked out the Math Daily 3 resource since I love Daily 5 so much and have wanted to figure out how to do something similar for math.  This pack is great to get you started!  I can't wait to try this out this year!

I haven't heard what my other prize is but I'll keep you posted!


As I was writing this, I finally got one of Shuna's riddles!  So I have her animal unit coming!  I can't wait!

I have a few fun things coming up too!


I can't wait to do this postcard exchange!  We still need a few states so click the picture to see if you can join us!

I am also going to be part of a Product Swap!  Should be fun and I'll post what I get to check out!  If you have a TpT store, click the button above to be apart of it!

Okay, that's all for now!  I have to get to potty training : (
