All I Want for Black Friday!

It’s my favorite time of year! I do love shopping and getting good deals, but more than that, I LOVE Thanksgiving and the holiday season!
Today, The Primary Pack is kicking off the holiday season by bringing you our personal and TpT wishlists, products we think would be great for your TpT wishlist, plus a BIG giveaway!!

I put a few hot items on my own personal wishlist this year. I tried to think of things that I have and want another of, but probably wouldn’t buy for myself right now.
(But, if my hubby sees this and wants to then I’m good with that!)
I have one pair of Tieks and just like everyone says, they are very, very comfortable! I’d like another pair, but I keep telling myself to wait until after winter… (Not like it really gets all that cold here in Florida!)

We have a Fire Stick on our main TV, but I recently got a small TV for my office. I don’t need to pay for a cable hookup and DVR in this room, but having a 2nd Fire Stick would certainly do the trick! I’m hoping these go on sale during Amazon’s Black Friday sales!!

Oh Alex & Ani… I buy these bracelets all the time, but I need to slow down! I do love how easy it is to wishlist these bracelets, though! Hubby: “What do you want for your birthday?” Me: “Just pick out an Alex & Ani from my wishlist!” Hubby: “What do you want to Chanukah?” Me: “Just pick out another Alex & Ani from my wishlist!” The perfect little gift!!


I know I’m not the only one with an overflowing TpT wishlist!! I’d love to hear what’s on yours! (Leave me a comment!)

Classroom Products:

Writing Stations through the Year Bundle by A Smiling Teacher: I love these writing stations! We used the December pack last year, and I was hooked! Now it’s time for me to get the rest of the year so I can easily have a writing station all set up for each month!

Listen Up 3 by Fluttering Through First Grade: I have the other 2 Listen Up packs from these ladies, and I absolutely LOVE these activities!! We do one of these a week in my class. These packs are a must-have to help with listening and following directions!

Shapes No Prep Activities by United Teaching: Oh shapes, I love teaching and learning about shapes! This pack just looks like TONS of great shape activities for morning work, homework, and math stations! I’m thinking it’s going to be a must-have!!

WH- Questions No Prep Activities by Primary Punch: I have several students in my class this year with language delays. I’ve been eyeing this WH- questions pack because I know it would be super helpful for those kiddos!

Clipart:

Transportation by Whimsy Clips and Family by Educlips
I have plans for both of these packs!! These are on my wishlist, but will be in my cart soon!
(*Hint* Some new write the room activities will be coming your way soon!)


*Brag Tags!* These are 3 of my favorite packs of brag tags!
Want to learn more about brag tags? Read more HERE!
Brag Tags for Academics: The tags in this pack focus mainly on letters and numbers. I’m constantly using tags from this pack to give to my students once they know all of their letter/vowel sounds or can count or write to a certain number.
Homework Brag Tags: I award these tags to students each month when they complete all of their homework. It is such an incentive and really helps with homework completion!
Holiday Brag Tags: This pack has tags for 20 holidays and 4 seasons. This pack allows me to give all of my students a tag! If they haven’t earned a homework, behavior, or academic tag in awhile, they can still get a holiday tag to add to their collection and remind them to keep trying to earn more tags!

Winter Graphic Organizers: These tree map graphic organizers are a great way to help your students respond to nonfiction text and organize their thoughts for writing. They are differentiated to meet the needs of your learners and come with anchor chart cards to make a whole group graphic organizer, too!


Read-Trace-Write-Glue Sentence – A Growing Bundle: These sentences are my favorite to use for morning work! They help with sentence structure, handwriting, sight word reading, and fine motor! So far, this bundle contains my [Fry] sight word sentences plus fall, spring, and summer sentences. Winter sentences will be added soon as well as Dolch word sentences (which will be exclusive to this growing bundle-not a separate pack in my store!)





Write the Room Bundle: My write the room bundle has ALL 29 of my write the room activities at a HUGE discount!! (*cough*50% OFF*cough*) Remember the clipart I mentioned above that I’d be buying soon? Well, I’ll be making 2 more activities and adding them to the bundle soon. Better grab it now!

      The Amazon Fire Stick essentially turns your TV into a Smart TV. I can access my Prime Instant Video and also Netflix! I can plug it in to any TV and as long as I have access to WiFi, then I'm good to go! It's perfect!!

    Look who is addicted to Alex and Ani now!!! I bought some Ja-Vie's recently and love them. They are ballet shoes like Tieks, but they have orthotics in them, are waterproof and only $68 regular price (which means they get cheaper with sales.) You should check them out. xoxo

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!!
