Here is One More Way to GLOW:

Use the ESGI Flashcards as "skill cards" and provide in-class and at-home individualized RTI for each of your students with just one click! Here is how:

~I used the "flashcards" as "skill cards" and I put each child's skill cards into zipper bags to create RTI kits to take home or to use in class with an adult or a cross-age tutor. 

Here is a sample of the skill cards that reflect the incorrect skills for this child. We cut them apart, put them into zipper sandwich bags, & we chose 1 skill card to work on with an adult or tutor. 

And that's how you can GLOW with ESGI!

It's Super Bowl Sunday, so Let's GLOW! + a FREEBIE!

 EVERYONE GETS A FREEBIE!

I'm giving EVERYONE a Super Super Bowl/Valentine Freebie today and ESGI is giving you one tomorrow Feb. 12!

Why? Because super teachers deserve something super exciting on Super Bowl Sunday and because ESGI wants to help make you GLOW!

ESGI made me glow in my classroom by helping me to target the specific skills each child needed. 

How?

I'm Presenting a Hands-On SCIENCE Workshop @ The California Kindergarten Conference!

Do You Want To Build An Igloo?:

Join me at my session at the CA Kindergarten Conference in Santa Clara, CA this Jan. 12-14. You will get to experience lots of FUN science activities to do with your littlest learners! Here is just one of the fun activities: 

Integrate curriculum and you will fit it all in!

Collaborate with your team to keep costs down.

Note: These molds are no longer available, but these cute little igloos are and your kids will LOVE it if they each got one to melt! 

Here is the link for one of the molds:

This mold is made for ice cubes, so it will most likely last longer. 

And here is the link for the other one:

While the igloo is melting, you can log your observations and WRITE about it!

You can also COUNT the blocks and SUBTRACT them as they melt!

Here is the info about the BEST conference right here in Northern CA:

January is the BEST Time to Dive Into Writing!

Your Littlest Learners Will LOVE to Create Silly Sentences!

 Kids need to explore language before they can write, so let's have some FUN creating silly sentence that your students will beg to write!

Click the image above to see this set.

Here is how: Use my "Instant Writing" packet with a small group of 6.

-Copy 1 page of noun graphics on pink paper.

-Copy 1 page of verb graphics on green paper.

-Copy 1 page of nouns for the predicate on blue paper.

-Have each child choose 1 pink, 1 green, & 1 blue graphic and glue them to their writing template page.

Use this "Extra Words" page to help each child complete their sentence. I copied one for each child.

If you copy it on cardstock and laminate it, just circle the words each child wants to use so they can copy them.

Or, you can begin with the student telling you the silly sentence and YOU write it for them.

Here is a TK student who wrote her sentence: "The Lion finds money at the store."

My students had more fun laughing after each child shared their silly sentence and they could not wait to take them home to share with their families.

After doing this lesson about 5 times with a variety of graphics (the set comes with 48 of each type of word) you can also create a center with a small set of laminated cards.

In the yellow framed "Class Totals" teachers can view raw scores or percentage scores for each student during each grading period.

for each skill.

So much wonderful information here for parents and it's just what they want to know. I stapled each child's ELA and Math Parent Letter to the top of their report card because it was more comprehensive than most report cards. Then, I gave them a set of flashcards to use at home to play memory games, "I Spy that Sound" in the car, or even place cards in a plastic zipper bag to play "Sink that Letter or Number" in the bathtub!
