Well teacher pals, I am officially addicted to the Target Dollar Spot! My "Currently" post from last week stands strong this week again. I am an ALLSTAR Target Dollar Spot addict. But it paid off today. I know MANY of you are on the hunt for the "First Day Of" chalkboards, and I had some good luck today and found 5!!!! My big goal when I started this blog was to share ideas and collaborate with teachers to make our lives a little easier, and a little happier. Therefore, it's GIVEAWAY time! I bought all 5 of the boards, and I will give each one away to 5 lucky followers! There's a few things you can do on the giveaway to get your name in the pot more than once.
I am giving away one chalkboard at a time, so check back for the 2nd-5th giveaways if your name isn't chosen the first time. Good luck!!!!!

xoxo,
great idea! I love being with the children...makes me feel young!
ReplyDelete:) They are the best at making us feel young!!
DeleteMy favorite part of teaching is sharing stories with children. I love to use literature as a jumping off place for math, social studies, and science (in addition to reading skills, of course)!
ReplyDeleteIt will never cease to be amazing to me how attentive the class is when I tell them a personal story, or read them a story. They love all kinds of stories! :)
DeleteOne of my many favorite parts of teaching KG is when the kids tell me they love me & when they give me hugs.
ReplyDeleteI agree! Me too.

DeleteMy favorite part of teaching is watching my students learn and grow.Since I teach a multi-grade special ed class, I get to see them progress through the years. When they leave my class, they are just across the hall so I get to see them till they go to middle school.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of teaching is seeing the growth the students make in a year!
ReplyDeleteFirst, I am sorry if my comment appears more than once! My computer is acting very out of control! I was having trouble getting anything to post.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of teaching is seeing how the kids apply lessons and concepts in class.I love how my prekinders work and play in centers and create with each other and teach each other. I love how once in small groups one of my kiddos encouraged a friend who was having trouble and praising when they tried.
I love watching their face "light up" when they finally get it/ learn something that was hard for them. It melts my heart to see them come in smiling eager to learn at the beginning of each class. I love making them laugh and feel safe to take chances as well as safe from harm. I also love making great memories with them- both for them and for me!.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of teaching kinder is seeing how much they grow in 1 school year.
ReplyDeleteLove laughing and having fun with students.
ReplyDeleteI love building relationships with my kiddos! Watching them blossom throughout the year makes my heart happy! ❤️
ReplyDeleteI love seeing how much my students grow throughout the year and getting to know their sweet personalities.
ReplyDeleteLove this idea of the giveaway! My favorite part about teaching is the things that my kids say, the ideas that they come up with, and just the sweetness they have for each other and of course the random hugs they give to me; specially if I'm having a hard day those just melt my heart and make my day.
ReplyDeleteMy name is Linda and one of my favorite parts of teaching, well wait a minute last year was my first official year, so my favorite part was watching my kindergarteners come in the beginning of the year trying to get all of the alphabet correct and leaving in June so excited to read to a partner or the class at the end of the day. I also partnered with the fifth grade class and my kinders were so excited to "read" to their buddies at our ice cream party in June.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it awesome that they come in barely knowing letters and leave reading?! So cool!
