This is a lively "change up" after spending half the year singing Obie Leff's "Days of the Week" song. The children love it... and this year, started their own hand motion of rolling their hands over each other in front of their bodies as they gently rocked backward and forward. They never tired of the tune, and each and every one of my students knew the days of the week by heart long before the end of the year. Thank you!

lol, I know. Every program is different! Actually, just highlight the box and delete, or highlight the box, right click/copy/paste. You can drag the boxes to adjust for a different name. :)

Hope you are staying dry! Are you affected by any of the flooding?
June 5, 2013
Margaret Hufstedler (TpT Seller)
Hi! No, we are in S Missouri. The flooding is up near St. Louis. Our river has had about a four foot rise, but not an issue for most here. Thank you for asking. So kind of you! My aunt and uncle live in a beautiful river town south of where the levies have been breached. I am hoping their home is inland enough to not be affected.
Maggie
P.S. Do you live near the area that is fooding? I hope you'll stay safe.

bgsmom re: Mother's Day Photo Template FREEBIE "Owl" always love you!
Love the mothers day owl card. How do you insert a picture though??
May 5, 2013
Margaret Hufstedler (TpT Seller)
Open in power point, choose insert from the menu bar, then picture, then choose the digital photo of your student (from your computer's picture files)on the template, resize, then drag into position. Easy-peasy!

Juliana Mohn (TpT Seller) re: "Week at a Time" Calendar Journals for 2012-2013 (price cut)
Do you have a student sample? I am wondering if you glue these into file folders or is it a front to back copy? When do you typically post the next school year calendars on TpT? Thanks!!1
April 27, 2013
Margaret Hufstedler (TpT Seller)
I have an "everything" binder for each child that is tabbed with sections for our calendar jounal, writer's workshop paper, a math journal, and our math practice pages from the series we use. I print each calendar journal page so students can just flip to the next page quickly. We color or put an x in each box for each day that goes by for the weather tally, and we trace numbers as each day goes by on the calendar weeks. I have not done a student sample because most of the kindergarten journal is a traceable set. I will have the next year's calendars available in June or July. Email me if you have further questions! maggieskindercorner@yahoo.com
Thank you.
Maggie

taw240 re: Kindergarten Standardized Test Practice for the "Un-Common Core" Math Skills
What standardized test do you take? Would these closely align with the kindergarten version?
April 11, 2013
Margaret Hufstedler (TpT Seller)
Yes, we take the Kindergarten Terra Nova. This also goes with the IOWA, as we used to take it. The questions are only from the parts that the common core does not require, such as time and money, and patterning. Remember, these are only sample questions and practices to prep for them. There is also number identification on it.

I just purchased the test prep practice and wanted to let you know there are a couple of mistakes. Page 1 and 2 both have money questions with two of the same answer choices.

Margaret Hufstedler (TpT Seller)
Hi,
Thank you for your comment. I had originally left that in because I wanted to see if my students would mark two bubbles or remember that only one bubble is permissible. If you do not want that option, email me at maggieskindercorner@yahoo.com, and I'll send a version with different choices. Thanks again!

Amartin922 re: March Leprechaun Poetry Set with Song mp3 link! NEW!!!
Margaret,
I love your poems, I put them in my pocket chart each month and the children can work with it by themselves.
I was wondering about having an option that does not include the links to the MP3 part. I don't have a way to play the songs in my class. Is there a way you can offer the poems with and without it?

There is no difference with or without :). It is just a link I provide to download after purchase. The poem works the same without the mp3. The Leprechaun Poem is the only one with an mp3 file, but I can upload the same without the song. Check back in a few minutes.

Are we able to purchase this in a format so we are able to edit it? I wanted to purchase, but since the school year is 1/2 over I wanted to be able to change the numbers (dates) for the next school year. Is this an option or do we have to purchase this every year?
Thanks for your help!

This will be new for each school year. Because of copyright restrictions, I am unable to make it editable. However, I have reduced the price because August-January are obsolete. I will add elements to the set like new clip art, new concepts, and more graphing activities in the new set. Thank you for your inquiry. Maggie

Hi! Thanks for sharing this freebie! I have also downloaded the other ones you offered as well. Just a question -- I noticed on the bottom it says paste on the label guides according to beginning sounds....I am not sure where the beginning sounds come in at? Sorry kind of a dumb question.
December 10, 2012
Margaret Hufstedler (TpT Seller)
Students say "roof" then look for the word whose beginning letter is the first sound heard in roof. :) Hope that makes sense.

lucas re: Kindergarten Math Journal 2: Numbers in the Teens CC Aligned
Do you have first grade CC math journals?
December 1, 2012
Margaret Hufstedler (TpT Seller)
No, but the k journals are being used as a review for RTI students or as a review at the beginning of the first grade year. I have sold several journals to first grade teachers who use them for this purpose. It can be an independent "must do" center activity during your math work station time :) I have been contemplating making them for first grade as I have many requests for them. Thank you for writing to me! :)

No, this is meant to be a review for your RTI students, or as a review at the beginning of the first grade year. I have sold several journals to first grade teachers who use them for this purpose. It can be an independent "must do" center activity during your math work station time :) Here is the exact wording from the product description:
"These journals have prompts already on the pages for all CCSS for Kindergarten. However, they are also an excellent way to review or build on skills at the beginning of 1st grade."

It is not too difficult to change the background colors. What are your colors? I'll see what I have. I can upload "your" version of the clip chart ovals for you to purchase, or send to you after your purchase. email me at maggieskindercorner@yahoo.com :)

Hi Margaret, I enjoyed your product. I was able to confidently give it a perfect rating. Thanks for sharing!
I just listed a new type of Sight Word PowerPoint for Kindergarten and First Grade. It is listed under First 50 Sight Words PowerPoint. It includes the words in isolation and within the context of sentences with picture support. I wondered if you might consider taking a look at the free 4 slide preview to see if it might be something you could use. Thanks! Anne Gardner

Margaret Hufstedler (TpT Seller)
Hi, just download the font, then open the downloaded file and click on install so it will put the font in your computer's font files. Then put some text in the box, highlight it, and choose the printclearly font as the font for the page. Contact me at maggieskindercorner@yahoo.com if you have more questions. If you have the font installed already, you should just be able to select a font as you normally would in powerpoint or word.

These will be perfect for my owl themed classroom. Do you think you could do these with a frog theme for my teammate?

Take a look at the little "Sorry We Missed You" Frog Theme Signs I just posted. If this looks good to you, I'll make up a set of the rules posters and put them on here. http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Frog-Theme-Sorry-We-Missed-You-Signs (copy/paste url to see). I also have Owl "Sorry We Missed You" Signs ;)

I really like the "Today's Readers - Tomorrow's Leaders wall bulletin with branch and owls. Are you planning on selling it here? Or if you purchased it, could you guide me as to where to purchase?
August 7, 2012
Margaret Hufstedler (TpT Seller)
I made it. The branches are some I free handed out of dotted craft paper after I laminated it. The caption and elements are for sale as part of a bulletin board set here:

Pam Kerl re: Camp or Forest Theme "Sorry We Missed You" Signs
I'm getting ready to buy your Camp or Forest theme "Sorry We Missed You" sign; however, I really need the word DRAMA added to the places we might be. If I buy these, would you be able to make me one including the word DRAMA?? Thanks!

Margaret Hufstedler (TpT Seller)
Just email me at maggieskindercorner@yahoo.com
You will need to purchase, then let me send you the file with the new word added. Thank you! I'll be watching my email for your purchase! :)

Is there a way to take off some of the places where we are. I only go to computers, recess and lunch. I am wondering if I will be able to edit that one piece when I buy it?? Thanks.

Email me, and I'll fix it if you have already purchased. I'll be watching my maggieskindercorner@yahoo.com email.

tinaspada re: "Week at a Time" Calendar Journals for 2012-2013 (price cut)
Hi!
Thank you for all your hard work on this! I think this may work for my class. I was wondering, though, if these calendar pages vary in tasks as the year goes on or if they remain the same. I am still trying to decide what would be best for my first graders...changing it up as the year goes on or a consistent routine they can rely on. Let me know what your plan is and how you designed your calendar pages. Thanks!

Here is a pic of my bulletin board with the one week displayed.
http://maggieskindercorner.blogspot.com/2012/07/week-at-time-calendar-freebie-for-group.html
Not sure what you mean about the "how" I designed it, but here is a reply I posted on proteacher:
"This is just a different design. Students still see the entire month, but the weeks are separate rows with day names on each day of the week, and a number for tracing the week's number and the day's number. They are not missing the month in view, but have a specific week to identify and work with each week. It draws the eye to focus on a particular week. Since kids learn better in chunks with frames around them, they find the date faster! We compare this to our smartboard calendar activity as we work in our journals during morning meeting. You can download a journal and see what I am talking about. I have such a difficult time getting kids to find and draw their pattern in the correct block of the calendar under the correct day and in the correct row. This is a way of scaffolding learning to help them see what exactly makes up a calendar month-days make weeks, weeks make months. I have three more calendars scattered around the room (behind my small group table, near the door as we come in and go out, and over my sink which is our snack calendar). They are getting a quick lesson in calendar, but I feel they are gaining much more. I hope this makes sense. Let me know if this answers why I presented them in a way students have to read Week 1 and trace the one, then find and trace the date, and finally, color the next color in our current month's pattern."
I placed a free download of September on another site, but can't remember if I did it on TpT. I will put one on here if not.
Your other concern is how to use them all year. I actually believe the repetition is important for the entire year in K. As students gain confidence through the year, they are able to complete the journal as part of their morning work before we have morning meeting. Morning meeting supports them by allowing them to change their data if they made a mistake. I will ask them during transitions to count the weeks, days, name the month, name the date, etc., on the regular calendars posted in the room. If the whole class counts them, the whole class gets a click on the smartboard reward system (online program that is free--I use Whole Brain Teaching question/answer format in my class). The game is called http://www.classdojo.com/ I am using it in place of one I made for the smartboard. Check it out too! I hope this response makes sense...I haven't had enough coffee yet this a.m.!

I would be happy to! Would you like all red/white with black borders and little ladybugs in place of the owls? Let me know! I'll get it uploaded by later this evening if that's what you need. I need to make some for a friend of mine too.

Will you be offering this for the other months as well? I have always wanted to do this type of calendar math with my Kindergarten students but have never found anything this great! Please let me know if you will have the other months available. Thanks!

You must have downloaded the freebie :) The full 12 month version is this link:

Thank you for the kind comments! I just had to have a shortened version of calendar with the new CCSS eliminating calendar in the standards. It is so relevant to the math skills we teach!

Oh! I sure can. I will add those to the file, then you can redo your download--no extra cost. I think that was on my original "to do" list, and I got sidetracked,lol. Check for that later today! 6/18/12

Is there anyway you could add a grey to your owl colors for Pom poms? I bought it and that's one of the colors we assess. Thanks!

Oops! I had made one, and may have deleted it somehow before saving the file. Thank you for discovering it! The new file is uploaded and ready for you! :) If you are from the UK, I can change the spelling of gray to grey :)

You can see the clip chart I will use on my site: http://maggieskindercorner.blogspot.com/2012/05/easy-fit-owl-themed-clip-chart-is-ready.html
The other rules set has "I can..." statements at the beginning of each rule rather than "I am going to..." I hope this is what you are referring to. :) I just uploaded the set to TpT--oops! I had not put it in my store here yet. Thank you for the ?

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I have taught K-12 Music, third grade, sixth grade, second grade, and kindergarten (for the past 16 years). I am a songwriter, pianist, and love recording original music for early literacy classroom use. I have also created several things for use teaching the Common Core Standards for Kindergarten. My K Math Journal Bundle is a favorite!
MY TEACHING STYLE
Research shows that young children retain information better when music and movement are used daily in the classroom. Children who have fun while learning are more likely to remember what has been experienced through music. Original hands-on work is the key to learning the common core standards. Take a look at my common core math journals!

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY
B.S. in Education from Missouri State University, B.S., in Early Childhood from Missouri State University
ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION
Having been a pianist and musician all of my life, I knew it would partner well with teaching. I use the music I record every day in my classroom. My common core aligned materials are in classrooms across the country! I love creating and sharing.
