Harry Kindergarten was created back in 2009 with "random" videos for his students. Well those "random" videos have found their way into thousands of classrooms across the world! With over 70 million views and almost 66,000 YouTube subscribers, Harry Kindergarten has brought a much needed spark and spunk to our Kindergarten and lower elementary classrooms.<br />
<br />
I recently had the privilege of talking to Pete Harry over the phone. He shared with me his passion for teaching and creating fabulous resources for you guys!<br />
<br />
Do you remember the old saying from your parents or grandparents, "I walked to school up a hill, both ways, in the snow!"? Well, Pete Harry really does walk to school in the snow!! And Pennsylvania winters are HARSH! My little southern belle tushie loves my heated car seats and waits by the phone with bated breath for school cancellation at the first sign of snow!<br />

Harry Kindergarten Videos are a great way to create an interactive classroom and keep students engaged! I use his videos to introduce new concepts or provide a brain break for my students.<br />
<br />
I love his alphabet videos like Learnin' My Letters and Snowball Fight. Here is a preview of Learnin' My Letters.<br />
<br />

<br />
You can purchase <a href="http://www.harrykindergartenmusic.com/song/180" target="_blank">Snowball Fight</a> on his website for $2.49! You should have seen my kids faces when I told them we were going to have a snowball fight...This is a class favorite!<br />

<br />
Purchasing videos is soooooo worth it! You won't have the hassle of waiting for YouTube to upload the video (especially if your school internet is SLOW as Molasses!) You won't have to worry about other videos, like Dora the Explorer, popping up at the end of the video and your kids shouting "Click Dora! Click Dora!!!"<br />
<br />
These videos get your kids moving and trigger their memory. They will be singing the songs all day...and so will you! Just wait, you will be hooked faster than you can say "Hooked on Phonics Worked for Me!" JK<br />
<br />
I like activities that are interactive and engaging for students. When I create or look for resources, I like resources that match my interactive classroom environment. An interactive classroom is a great way to keep your students engaged and practice many skills at one time.<br />

How do you use Harry Kindergarten in your classroom? Comment Below!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02710772791548524919noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776648842946510401.post-18377561985657700032014-09-19T00:00:00.000-04:002014-09-19T00:00:03.965-04:00Dick and JaneI didn't have the privilege of growing up with Dick and Jane, but my Mama did. Now she wouldn't want me to tell you how old she is, but I did say "Dick and Jane."<br />
<br />
See Dick.<br />
See Dick run.<br />
Run Dick, Run.<br />
<br />
See Jane.<br />
See Jane run.<br />
Run Jane, run.<br />
<br />
Growing up I thought that Dick surely did chase Jane a lot. Then along came Spot and Sally. And it seemed to me they all just ran around like crazy.<br />
<br />
The point is when I became a kindergarten teacher, my Mama was so happy I was finally going to get to teach her beloved Dick and Jane. Now, there is nothing wrong with Dick and Jane mind you. Dick and Jane taught a lot of kids to read. However, we are now past the days of Dick and Jane and living in the days of iPad apps.<br />
<br />
I recently met two fabulous teachers Lynn Klaiman and Sara Hines who have created an iPad app designed to help kinders learn read through repetition of rhyming word family words and common sight words. And what kinder does not love an iPad? Heck! They don't even realize they are learning. That is a win win situation. I win because it is a quick and easy resource that I can grab in an instant. The kiddos win because it is fun and educational at the same time.<br />
<br />
Here are a few snapshots of inside the app.<br />

<br />
<br />
I have teamed up with other bloggers from the Who's Who and Who's New Blog for an exciting blog hop.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHc0dTJVsNiIuIH636wjS0Mku31AwCyou1BeUJudlFTAqis-s-M0gs4lYm-fP5ydytUpfIbdXkw7FBDW2LJU3VJJmJq192yjvuLmrIRZN1lLywaMpJ-0Z2GdxC3IGMSUAth-dAvvlkMS8/s1600/wtwimage.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHc0dTJVsNiIuIH636wjS0Mku31AwCyou1BeUJudlFTAqis-s-M0gs4lYm-fP5ydytUpfIbdXkw7FBDW2LJU3VJJmJq192yjvuLmrIRZN1lLywaMpJ-0Z2GdxC3IGMSUAth-dAvvlkMS8/s1600/wtwimage.png" height="478" width="640" /></a></div>

<br />
Here are a couple of ways to "WORK TOGETHER" with your parents:<br />
<br />
1. Sign up for Remind101. <a href="https://www.remind.com/" target="_blank">Remind101</a> is a free service that allows you to text your parents with updates from your phone. Parents can sign up for this service and you can easily send parents reminders via text messages without giving out your personal number.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2. Send weekly newsletters. Newsletters are a great way to keep parents informed and involved. I send my newsletter home each Friday. It covers what we have learned during the week, and what is to come next week. I also include important dates and items students need to review at home. </div>

I was recently introduced to a fabulous service. I was thrilled when my <a href="http://misformonster.com/" target="_blank">M is for Monster</a> box arrived in my classroom. Mandy sent me a M is for Monster box to show me what she provides each month for toddlers through preschoolers. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://misformonster.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="http://misformonster.com/" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5BRNhbySycXUO019bPdv0eP4hhjjyrXHeMtd7RWqObXsdFuHJL5BzI7tAFoKXnO7xKukdIfP_QvK6qr7TwKVEeHiGqf5lPcq3oAENCmOXJzqLOkkUW-HwDbGtdMShhruIv32gxVvafaQ/s1600/M+is+for+Monster.png" height="256" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
This service is perfect for a busy parent who wants to provide educational activities for their preschooler. Each of the activities are great for the preschool age and help with fine motor skills and academic prep for kindergarten. The box comes with everything you need to complete the activities with your preschooler. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
No more searching Walmart for activity books. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Mandy provides educational activities that you need for the whole month! The box comes monthly and is divided into four weeks. Each week has a theme and two to four activities that you can complete together. She makes it easy and provides directions for each activity. She also provides a list of supplemental songs, poems, and books that you can read to fit that theme. Essentially this is preschool in a box!!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Want to see what was in my box? </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Everything was pre-packaged according the craft or activity. She even provided the markers and glue that I needed to complete the activities. I did not have to get anything!!!! Soooo EASY!</div>

Week 1: Rainbows</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Preschoolers completed letter R activities. My favorite activity had the preschoolers tear the provided tissue paper and glue inside the letter R. This helps with fine motor skills and great for letter recognition. This is great for preschoolers and kindergarteners! </div>

Week 2: Kites</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Activities included letter matching and counting and recognizing numbers. She also provided a terrific book about kites. I was excited that there was a book in the box that matched the theme! It would be perfect for a preschooler to point out the word kite and letters they recognize. If you have a kindergartener, it is a perfect reader for them! </div>

I loved that these activities were something that I could have my kinders complete over and over again. Each piece is made out of a <strong>thick cardstock</strong> and will not bend easily. Perfect for little hands. </div>

Week 3: Bunnies and Carrots</div>

This week fell the week of Easter. So, it was perfect timing! Preschoolers participated in a pre-writing activity where they practiced capital and lowercase letter recognition. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
She also provided a carrot counting activity. This is a great activity that practiced counting numbers in the teens and it could be completed over and over again. This would be perfect for kindergarteners. </div>

Week 4: Flowers</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This week was my favorite and my kinders LOVED planting the tickle me plant. We planted it the week before spring break. One of my kinders took the plant home to care for it. She sent me the picture below. She says every time you touch the plant it dances! I can't wait to see it on Monday! </div>

Also, inside the box was a plant craft. What I loved about this craft was that the flower petals were made out of fabric. It was fun to touch. That is great for preschoolers. They also practiced placing petals in order by size. This is wonderful for little minds! </div>

She recently sent me her <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Camp-Learn-a-Lot-Kindergarten-1117024" target="_blank">Kindergarten Camp Learn-A-Lot</a>. This pack was ADORABLE and my kids loved completing the activities. The graphics were so cute and it covered a multitude of standards. I was able to use it for my Daily 5 centers this week. <br />

My kids favorite activity was the camping journal. I loved it too! In fact several days I had kids ask if they could stay in work on writing so they could finish their stories. Kristen places a writing prompt at the top of the page that sparks the imagination of little ones! I loved reading their stories this week! <br />
<br />
Here are few pictures from the pages we completed this week... <br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I have been asked about the writing process I go through with my kinders. I thought I would share a recent project that we completed as a class. This will give you a look into our writing process. Please note that my kindergarteners have been writing all year long through different activities. We have been building up to writing 5 paragraph essays ALL. YEAR. LONG. I plan to write future posts about our different writing activities. If I put them all in this one post, it would entirely too long and you would never read it all in one sitting. :-) Follow my blog for future updates. <br />

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Essay Topic: Sharks VS. Whales, Who is king of the sea? </h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Step 1: Research</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Like most kindergarten teachers, I integrate science and social studies into many different activities through out the day. We began by researching facts about sharks and then facts about whales. I wanted my kinders to feel like they were experts on the subject. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We started by going to the library to check out books on both of these topics. I wanted my kindergarteners to physically see me go to our library to check out books on the topic. I explained that we were scientist and when scientist wanted to study a topic, they would conduct research and collect data. I explained one way to collect data is by visiting the library to find books on the topic. I placed the books in our classroom and allowed the students to look at the books during free time and Daily 5. The books were always visible to the students. </div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
We also watched videos. You can find the videos we watched <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Sharks-vs-Whales-ELA-and-Science-Freebie-1154058" target="_blank">here </a>in this freebie in my TpT store. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Step 2: Collecting Data</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After research and talking about what we learned, we moved on to recording our data. I really believe this point is crucial because the kinders need a chance to write and form sentences about what they have learned. This allows them to become comfortable with the process. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DQFXfIgIP7s/UyRjFjJyvMI/AAAAAAAACKU/Sk3AtUp_7lo/s1600/IMAGE_444.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-DQFXfIgIP7s/UyRjFjJyvMI/AAAAAAAACKU/Sk3AtUp_7lo/s1600/IMAGE_444.jpg" height="640" width="480" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I record <strong><u>exactly</u></strong> what they say. We work together to sound out words and use phonics rules to spell words. I want them to feel comfortable forming sentences even if the sentence doesn't quite fit. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-12jjO2eaea8/UyRjQ4MFn0I/AAAAAAAACKc/X8kgp-IvGD4/s1600/IMAGE_445.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-12jjO2eaea8/UyRjQ4MFn0I/AAAAAAAACKc/X8kgp-IvGD4/s1600/IMAGE_445.jpg" height="640" width="480" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
We use these recording sheets to write "can have are" sentences. I write words along with them and model how to build the sentence. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Step 3: Model! Model! Model! </h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Kindergarteners learn from watching you and then putting it into practice on their own. I am so thankful that I have an EPSON Projector for my classroom. This allows me to complete worksheets alongside of them or show them how to complete an activity. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mgNRzq54JBM/UyRifIGipII/AAAAAAAACJ8/IYPr5MG6Mxc/s1600/IMAGE_441.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-mgNRzq54JBM/UyRifIGipII/AAAAAAAACJ8/IYPr5MG6Mxc/s1600/IMAGE_441.jpg" height="640" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZD9Po6lGJU8/UyRi5F-sxfI/AAAAAAAACKM/t5tm8ifKYEw/s1600/IMAGE_443.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZD9Po6lGJU8/UyRi5F-sxfI/AAAAAAAACKM/t5tm8ifKYEw/s1600/IMAGE_443.jpg" height="640" width="480" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
I model before each writing activity. Sometimes I have the kids to work with me to write sentences and sometimes I write my own sentences. In previous writing lessons, I taught my kids how to use <a href="http://letter-chart-for-reading-and-writing-strategies-975772/" target="_blank">letter charts</a> and finger spaces. We also use wooden Popsicle sticks as spacers. In the past, I have modeled writing stories. I make up stories about my family dog Sadie Belle. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Sometimes I will write things incorrectly and have them correct me. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Example:{ Thebigdog.} or {the BIg dog}. or {The big dog?}</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<h3 class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Step 5: The Writing Process</h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I used an example of a 5 paragraph essay to introduce what we would be doing. You can see my example in the picture above. Once I introduced it, I called on different students to say three things that they liked about a shark or a whale. Those three things would eventually be their thesis statements for the essay. I explained that a thesis statement is like a road map for what they would write about. Number 1 would be their first paragraph. Number 2 would be their second paragraph. I also explained that each paragraph needed more than one sentence about the topic. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ih9moj7EwD0/UyRbofJmq9I/AAAAAAAACGA/nbO-7i0v8Es/s1600/IMAGE_412.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ih9moj7EwD0/UyRbofJmq9I/AAAAAAAACGA/nbO-7i0v8Es/s1600/IMAGE_412.jpg" height="640" width="480" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
We worked together to fill out these forms. I walked them through the process step by step. I also met with the individually. Not once did I have a student tell me that they didn't know what to write about. I believe this was because of our research process and practice writing. They already knew the sentences they wanted to write. Mainly I helped them with spelling and formatting. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I would encourage you to break this process up over a few days. This will allow them to process what they are doing. I chose to break up our time with trips to the water fountain and dance parties. We danced to this video because writing makes us happy. :-) We also made crafts to go with our essays. I will post pictures at the bottom of this post. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br /></div>
<h3 class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Publishing: The Results </h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Once we completed filling out the form, I had my kinders put their work in final form. Again, I modeled to my students how to copy from their rough drafts to their final essay. We talked about neat handwriting and how to make sure we were copying the correct words. I encouraged my students to put a check mark over the word after they finished writing it. I also think that giving them a marker or highlighter would make the process fun as well. I am probably going to do that next time. This was my kinders first time copying something in final form. I will have them continue to practice this through the rest of the year. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Below are some of the results. There are definitely things we need to work on like paragraph separation, but I think they turned out pretty good for their first essay of the year! :-) Please ignore my green fingernail in some of the pictures! We were painting that day! </div>

I love Valentine's Day. I grew up in a small town florist and Valentine's day always brought LOTS of work and LOTS of fun. My mom, dad, family, and friends would all chip in to help on that day. My favorite part of Valentine's day was seeing the joy of someone's face when we delivered flowers. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I created a freebie to share with you as you celebrate Valentine's day with your kiddos. I will post pictures of my class Valentine's day party soon! </div>

Snow, snow, and more snow shut down the South East this week. My home state of Georgia was in a state of emergency. There are many stories of people and kids locked in their cars over night. I was encouraged to hear many stories of people who came to the rescue of others. One of my favorite was of a Dad who walked 6 miles to spend the night at his daughter's elementary school so she would not be afraid.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This week was the 100th day of school for us. Our school's homecoming also fell on this week. On the actual 100th day of school we had early release due to the snow and we followed that day with two snow days. Needless to say, I did not get to do all the activities that I wanted to do for the 100th day. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here is what we did accomplish...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture of our chart we created, so here is the Pinterest picture that gave me the idea. The kids loved completing this activity. </div>

Hi Friends!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I am hoping for a snow day tomorrow. :-) My kids were too sweet today. They prayed for snow and a "two hour delay" so they could see Ms. H tomorrow. Little do they know, but their teacher is praying for a whole snow day!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I know! I know! Many of you live where you never get snow days, especially for 1-2 inches of snow. :-) Well, let me cheer you up with some cute penguin activities. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Our theme last week was penguins. I began by introducing our unit before our special. Quickly I gave my kinders 3 things to think about while they were gone. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. Can penguins fly?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. Do penguins have feathers?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. Do penguins live in the North Pole? </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When they returned, I asked the questions again. Each of them had a turn to come to the chart paper and write their answer. We talked about taking an educated guess about what we think will happen. I also told them that scientist, never just listen to their friends, but they use the information they know. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fZkAbNiI2rY/Ut7yCkcJd_I/AAAAAAAABYw/9cEnCRE5dnM/s1600/IMAGE_352.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fZkAbNiI2rY/Ut7yCkcJd_I/AAAAAAAABYw/9cEnCRE5dnM/s1600/IMAGE_352.jpg" height="640" width="480" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
As you can see, each child wrote his or her answers. I then read this book. I love this book for many reasons. One reason is because it has good information in it with kid friendly terms. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6ZEjgfZ9cPc/Ut7yMZ9Of7I/AAAAAAAABY4/IS45LR6mzR4/s1600/IMAGE_353.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6ZEjgfZ9cPc/Ut7yMZ9Of7I/AAAAAAAABY4/IS45LR6mzR4/s1600/IMAGE_353.jpg" height="640" width="480" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
After we read the book, we went back and posted the truth over our educated guesses. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The next day, we used the book to see all the different species of penguins. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
My kids gathered around our map, and I showed the kids where each of the penguins live. We had a discussion about the difference between the Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
We used our growth chart to see if we were taller than the largest penguin. (45 inches). I could kick myself for accidentally deleting them off of my phone. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

I modeled how to build a sentence from this chart. My kinders were then set free to go write about what they learned about penguins.</div>

The next day, we made a penguin craft to hold our penguin essays. Below I have provided a few pictures for examples.</div>

My kids love monsters. I use monsters to explain that words are not real. I tell them that monsters really don't know how to talk, so they mess up real words. Monsters say things like "ack" and "arg". Here is how I use Monsters in my classroom. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Monster glasses help you read sight words and real words in books and they also help you figure out which words are monster words. They are special glasses that give us "an extra set of eyes". </div>

I told my kids that the monsters messed up all of my worksheets and flash cards. I needed their help to sort real words from monster words. The kids throw the monster words into the monster trash can and record the real words. </div>

I made these for my classroom tonight. I was too excited and just had to share. <br />

I am excited to tell you that I have joined the new blog from Hilary Lewis "Who's Who and Who's New". I am thrilled about this new blogging adventure. This blog is made up of a variety of new and not so new super awesome TpT sellers. I am not a bit biased. :-) We will all be posting about adventures in our classrooms and great resources we have found. The blog launched today. It already has lots of buzz and excitement from our new readers. <br />

I hope that each of you have had a terrific Christmas and enjoyed some down time. My family was sick with the flu! Yuck! We are now all on the the mend and I am enjoying some time sipping coffee in front of a fire while I work on new TpT products. Don't you wish you were with me? <br />

I think you will agree. These ladies are always so encouraging and willing to share their cute ideas! I love my coworkers!<br />

I thought I would share a few of their cute Christmas crafts and maybe you can find an idea for your classroom next week!<br />

<h3>
Rip and Tear Santa</h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KE2_mRKEfQ0/Uq0BVq0Hi7I/AAAAAAAABJ4/mB2b_hHhY1I/s1600/IMAGE_279.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-KE2_mRKEfQ0/Uq0BVq0Hi7I/AAAAAAAABJ4/mB2b_hHhY1I/s640/IMAGE_279.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<br />
Our preschool teacher Katherine made these. Have students use fine motor skills to rip strips of paper for Santa's beard. Use a pencil to roll the paper so his beard will curl. His hat is a triangle. His eyes are small black circles. His nose is a red oval. <br />
<br />
<h3>
Reindeer Place Mats </h3>

<br />
Our art teacher Annette made these with my Kinders. Students cut strips of paper to make a red and green pattern frame. Use a star punch to decorate the page. Trace hands and cut out for reindeer antlers. Laminate for durability. <br />

Here is another craft from my talented friend Katherine. She teaches preschool. I am making these next week in our Christmas Center Swap with my kinders. The tree is paper plates. Draw lines on paper plates and divide into sections. Allow students to color and cut. Use a hole punch for falling snow. </div>

This craft is from our second grade teacher and is a hall favorite. If the Lord ever leads me to another school, I am definitely taking this craft with me. She uses butcher paper for the ginger bread men. She uses pillow stuffing for the insides. Some of her gingerbread men have raisins for eyes. Those turn out cute too! She told me to take glue and mix it with a little water. The kids paint the glue on and then sprinkle with brown sugar. She uses this for her outside bulletin board. It says "Jesus is the Sweetest Name I Know." Love!!! </div>

The kinders take the journal home to mom and dad. The parents write back to their children and I read some of the letters back on Monday of the new week. The kids LOVE hearing what mom and dad have to say. It cracks me up when I hear them respond with "AWE!!" when they hear another child's letter from home.<br />
<br />
At the beginning of the year we started with just letter sounds. Now we have moved to creating sentences with sight words they know. They are allowed to use a word bank that I keep in my classroom. They also use a letter chart to help them remember letter sounds. You can grab one for free <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Letter-Chart-for-Reading-and-Writing-Strategies-975772">here.</a> <br />
<br />
Here are some pictures from this week's entries. I am in love with them. I think their little drawings are precious and I just had to share! <br />

Don't worry, there is more than just Kindergarten resources. The starting point map for each grade level is <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz4q_T6yfNaQc2lsX1BpUTZCcGM/edit?usp=sharing" target="_blank">here.</a> You will need to download from Google docs and each thumbnail will be a link to the Facebook starting point.

<ul>
<li>I used nicer square scrapbook paper. </li>
<li> Paint right foot. I had them bend their knees and allow me to put the foot on paper. </li>
<li> Paint a X for the legs of the manger. </li>
<li> I traced and cut a star in contact paper. I placed the contact paper sticky side down and then painted over it with yellow. I then peeled up the star. </li>
<li>I used jumbo sticks to make the manger. </li>
<li>I used a blue wash cloth from dollar tree for the baby blanket. </li>
<li>The straw also came from the dollar tree. </li>
<li>I used manilla cardstock for the baby Jesus face. </li>
