Editable Morning Meeting/Share and Math/ELA Small Group Station Rotation Slides

One of the discoveries I made when I first started teaching was that there were multiple, daily items that I needed to update and keep on top of.  Of all those items, my morning meeting/share and the time my class came together in the morning was a priority.  It always sets the tone for the day and lets my students know exactly what we’ll be doing throughout the day. Additionally, keeping my Math/ELA small groups AND their weekly rotation is an area that I had mixed up more times than I can coun

About the store

Experience

In my years of teaching, I have taught 7th and 8th Grade Special Education, as well as Elementary General Education. My sweet spot is 4th grade, as that's the grade I've taught the longest (and have a soft spot for.)

Teaching style

My teaching style has always had a 'simple is best' undertone. On a personal level, I tend to get very overwhelmed/overstimulated when my classroom (and even my home) has too much going on. My products will typically be geared towards simplicity, although I do try to add color/some design for a fun pop!

Additional biographical information

I love cats (can you tell?) Actually, I haven't met an animal that I didn't want to smother with hugs! If I could have a small farm, where all of my animals just live together harmoniously and enjoy their lives, that would be a dream come true.
