May the 4th Be With You!

I’m not a huge Star Wars fan but I have seen the movies (well, the more recent ones at least) and I just love this idea … I think you will too! Check out my top 4 best sellers and even grab a freebie! And did I mention that all of these products will be discounted today ONLY?! 

May the FOURTH be with you!!

Shape Sorting Mats

These shape sorting mats are a main attraction in my math centers! The mats have two different types of sorting. My students love using different shape manipulatives to sort. Don’t have shapes to sort? Laminate and have students use a dry erase marker to draw or write shapes or have students bring in real world shapes to sort on the mats. Click here to check out them out!


Brag Tags


{Classroom Behaviors}

Brag Tags are a new behavior incentive I started using this year. My students get super excited when they get a chance to earn a new brag tag to hang on their backpack. It’s a super cheap and easy way to reward students! I’m working on making more brag tags for next year. If you have an idea for some tags, leave it in the comments!

The Classroom Behavior Brag Tags are my best seller, but I wanted to share this super fun idea with you so ALL of my brag tags are discounted!
Tags in picture are all in my store!

Spring Write the Room

This activity has been a big hit this spring! It’s one of my favorites too because I love all things spring! My kiddos absolutely love write the room … I mean, what kid doesn’t love to walk around the room with a clipboard?! My students also get to wear fun glasses and use pens, oh my! This Spring Write the Room activity has 14 pictures and 3 recording sheets for differentiation. Click here to see more!
Write the Room Recording Pages

Again with write the room! I just can’t help it – it’s our favorite station! This pack is a big collection of recording pages for any write the room activity. So far I have 25 pages in this pack but I’ve been adding more as I think of ideas so buy it now because the price may go up if I add a bunch more! Click here!



{Check back tomorrow for an entire post all about this awesome pack and a freebie!}

Pizza Co. practices math skills like: one-to-one correspondence, subtraction, money, and fractions. I absolutely LOVE that we get to work on basic subtraction and fractions (put toppings on half of the pie). Another thing I LOVE about this game is that I'm able to put it on junior mode so she can do most of it with just a little assistance.

This is going to be a favorite game for a long time!!
