The Clever School Teacher


Folks, I have to let you in on a secret. There is a CLEVER shop to save you and I a lot of time purchasing rich literature for our lessons.  The Clever School Teacher has a database that can find a 'just right' book for you!  Packages are designed around reading strategies, writing traits... get this..wait for it... AND... Common Core.  You'll find a collection of 300,000 books and prompt service.

I ordered this Predicting K-2 set and received the books yesterday.  Today I searched through the endless amount of selections in the Common Core units.  I'm eager to get a jump start of the "NEW" school year in Kindergarten.  YAY!!!

EYES-B - GRAFFITI

... la scène belge est très petite, on a vite fait le tour. Ca bouge beaucoup plus en illégal qu'en terrain ... je suis très influencé par les tags au départ, le geste et les mouvements que le tag apporte sont très importants, d'ailleurs la plupart du temps je n'aime pas trop les graffitis des gens qui ne savent pas taguer ... interview dans Graff Bombz 55

The Curious Garden:Literature Unit

One day, a curious boy named Liam is out exploring his drab, gray city when he comes across a struggling garden.  The Curious Garden is a magical story about a boy's dream and how the efforts of one small person can help change the world.

This has been an exciting book of the month.  The kids are blooming while writing and connecting with this unique and inspiring story.  I will be back this week with additional picture!

I highly recommend this book!  Themes include kindness, diversity, and environmentalism. I love that this story embraces individuality and uniqueness!  Here are a few additional pictures!


I purchase the paper and poster from Target.
I prepare 'kits' with colors preselected. 
Eliminates extra student decisions!
