Extra! Extra! Read All About It!

Your newsletters that is - did you read them??  My products were in BOTH the TpT and TN newsletters this weekend - oh my goodness!  I am beyond excited!  Just ask my husband, I think I scared him when I jumped on the couch Tom Cruise-style!

The Teachers Notebook newsletter featured my Summer Fun Activities and Centers.



And the TpT newsletter featured my Elements of a Friendly Letter Poster freebie!


I especially wanted to share how I use this poster in my classroom because we refer to it all. the. time. in my room.  My students practice writing letters throughout the year.  Every Friday we write in our Friday Journals to our parents (read more about that here).  My aunt also teaches second grade in California, so our students are pen-pals with each other.  They love it!  And I work really hard with my students on writing thank-you notes throughout the year for adults or students in the building who have helped us in some way.

Here is a picture of my writing anchor charts hanging in the back of my classroom.  The letter one is smack dab in the middle!


Some of my other posters are also available in my TpT store as well.

I'm also sharing my linking up with Classroom Freebies Manic Mondays



Go check out all the other freebies that are there and maybe even link up your own!

  4. CONGRATS!!! I'm still unsure of how entering works. I did a while back when I first started, but should I enter again now that I have bigger better products or would another entry be frowned upon??

    Congrats again!!
    Blessings,

    1. I've been submitting almost every week for the past few months! Paul was probably sick of me and just put me in so I'd go away!!
