Organization!

Still busy getting myself organized and my room ready!

 I've collected SO MANY papers from trainings and just in general that I must keep that it was stressing me out! Problem solved! Divide the papers up into categories and make books of all the information. I've made 3 so far. So next time I have to administer a test, or check on the districts leveling expectations I know right where to look and can grab the book for reference! Viola! 

I have made practice pages for students to practice various reading skills to use if a lesson gets over a little early or just as a lesson filler here are some examples:

They can write on these worksheets with a dry erase marker and wipe it off to reuse again and again!

I also laminated some paper with lines to practice writing things to save on paper!

I found this poster on Pinterest and decided to make it, I needed it in my room! It is so cute..."When two vowels go walkin', the first vowel does the talkin'."

 Great reading comprehension bookmarks I found to give to the students after reading a story to get them thinking about what they just read. 

Story wheel and Non-fiction reading response cards.

I decided to make a comfortable reading area so students can read while I work with a student individually on a particular task if necessary. 

Trying to get them to understand what they are saying out loud. Is it the right word? :)
