Giveaway and a Freebie!

Congrats to Ashley and Denise for winning my Be Mine, Valentine and I Have A Dream units from my TpT store.  They are still on sale for one more day!  Tomorrow at 8:00 pm they'll go up to their normal price.

I have a freebie for you, but it requires some background info first.  I created labels to use during my Reader's Workshop conferences.  I've used blank labels for a while now and they're so much easier!  Instead of lugging around my huge RW binder, I can jot my notes on labels and place them into my binder for me to be able to reference at another time.  

I stole borrowed a trick from Stephanie over at Teaching in Room 6.  She creates a sheet of labels with one label for each child so that it was an easy way of keeping track of who she met with that week and who she still needed to meet with.  Brilliant!  I used Avery 8160 labels.  There are 30/page, which gives me enough labels for each student plus extras for those I need to meet with multiple times a week or who I meet with during Intervention Block.  Here is an example of one of my labels:

I find that having lines and headings helps me to organize my thoughts a little better.  And colors just make me happy!  After making these, I felt the need to create a sheet to put in my RW binder to place the labels on.  I'm going to copy one of these sheets for each student:

Just click on the picture to grab your free copy!  Feel free to leave me some feedback on my TpT page if you do use it!

And noww...the giveaway!  I'm so excited to have 100 over 100 followers already!  I thought I'd help support fellow teachers with this one, since I'm so thankful for those who have supported me.  I'm giving away a $25 gift card to Teachers Pay Teachers.
