I plan to use this goal sheet this year to help my student work on either an academic goal or a behavior goal. My plan is to meet with students each quarter to set a goal together. It can be something as simple as remembering a library book, or something like keeping hands to self during whole group carpet time. There is a place to come up with action steps to help the student reach the goal. This would be great to copy and send home. Then, about every 3 weeks (or as needed) meet to discuss the

I created this poster, when I got sick of the hand-drawn poster that I made. I got the lesson idea from a book, The Daily 5: Fostering Literacy in the Elementary Grades, by Gail Boushey and Joan Moser. The idea is to help beginning writers from getting frustrated when trying to get their ideas on paper. I usually demonstrate how to use this strategy in front of my kiddos, then send them to their desks with their writing journals, and a piece of gum! How fun! This could be taught as one of the

I display this chart in my classroom. This is a great anchor chart for a Writer's Workshop mini-lesson. In my class we focus on creating S.W.A.G. sentences, as well as analyzing sentences to find out what they are missing and what they can add to make them S.W.A.G! Happy Teaching!

Here is a helpful checklist to use during parent-teacher conferences using all the first grade, Florida LAFS standards. Easily editable to add tables and to change to Common Core. Hope you find it helpful! Includes a space to record DRA level, iReady score, fluency, and sight words!

Use this simple chart to help with students who need individual behavior plans. If you need to chunk the day, so that there is a reward more immediately, than at the end of the day. Edit it to fit your schedule/the child's needs. Print them out daily, and post for the student to see.

I use these subject headers as the headers for my focus wall/objectives. The Powerpoint shows each subject, (reading, phonics, writing, math, science, social studies) in 6 colors. You can crop the slide to pick the color that you would like. The colors are: pink, orange, yellow, green, turquoise, lime, purple. Please let me know if you would like any other subjects! Thanks! Happy Teaching :)

This is a behavior chart that matches with most classrooms. It has a nice bright background. Included in the PowerPoint are 2 versions. One with the emojis, and one without. The images are sizable; both the behavior chart and emojis can be sized for your convenience. Happy Teaching!

Use this simple, yet stylish folder cover to help keep your students organized all year long. This PowerPoint comes with 5 background colors: turquoise, pink, lime, lilac, and orange. It can be used with the higher grades as a binder cover, and you can edit it to say so! Edit it to make it your own! Have fun! **The font will probably look different when you download. I created this on my macbook, the font is called chalkboard.

I suggest placing this reference chart somewhere near your Word Wall or some where close to your writing anchor charts. This is a nice reference, so that students aren't constantly asking for your assistance. The first chart references a personal word wall, which I use in place of a word wall in my class. The second chart references the word wall.
