Activities for name recognition and awareness are fun for the beginning of the year. For little learners who are growing in self awareness, incorporating name activities will help them become aware of their importance to the class community. They will also become more aware of the special place their peers occupy in the class too. Today I wanted to remind you of a free resource I shared a few years ago to help you prep an activity for name recognition early in the school year. Simply copy a page for each student and have them find the letters of their name to color or paint. Find it in Google Drive HERE More letter hunt pages If you think your little learners would like more letter hunt activities through the year, pop over to my TpT store for this printable pack with an alphabet focus. Thanks so much for stopping by to learn more about our teaching resources!

I've been meaning to upload the photos of the finished 'birthday tracker' wall display for a while and am finally getting around to it! The kiddos have really enjoyed this design. I was unsure of my decision to mount the display at their level - afraid that they'd get too rambunctious and pull the names off - but they've done a fabulous job. In fact, it's been fun to see them perusing the names before class, during free time, etc. and they're always super careful. My assistant, Maddy, and I love helping our preschoolers find their name, as well as match the other name plates to their classmates. Most of them can recognize which circle is their own, but it's great to see them learning how to recognize/identify letters and sounds to figure out what the other name plates say! If you want to know how I created this display, be sure to check out the full post --> Safari/Jungle Theme Birthday Wall.

I am ready to unveil my next set of Nomenclature Cards. Yippee! I worked on these over the weekend and got finished in a hurry. I am learning how to do some fun new tricks which are helping me to get better at creating useful images for card materials. This free downloadable set of zoology nomenclature cards is for the study of the 5 classes of vertebrates: birds, fish, amphibians, mammals, and reptiles. They are meant for introduction AFTER the children have been exposed to real life members of these classes of vertebrates. This is a great montessori zoology manual that I highly recommend. Zoology is fascinating to children. Heck, it is incredibly fascinating to me. The first time I ever learned about the alternation of generations in the jellyfish, I was teaching my oldest child and our homeschool group about cnidarians when she was about 8 or 9. I was simply dumbfounded that something as alien-like as that could exist on our own planet --- and that I never had had the chance to learn anything about it, even in college. I simply LOVED every opportunity I had to explore the world of living and extinct animals with my own children. They are some of my fondest memories from my children's homeschooling years. You can find the Parts of Books blacklines Here. This set comes in your choice of Print or D'nealian font and includes the following: Parts of the Bird - bird, head, beak, eye, body, breast, tail, wing, feet, claws Parts of the Fish - fish, head, eye, mouth, nostril, gills, torso, dorsal fin, caudal fin, anal fin, pelvic fin, pectoral fin, lateral line, scales Parts of the Frog - frog, head, eye, nostrils, mouth, ear, neck, trunk, forelegs, hind legs, feet Parts of the Horse - horse, head, eye, forehead, nostril, mouth, neck, forelegs, hooves, shoulder, hind legs, tail, torso, mane, hindquarters, ears Parts of the Turtle - turtle, head, eye, nostrils, mouth, neck, carapace, plastron, tail, fore limbs, hind limbs, claws Zoology Nomenclature Set - Print click on picture to link to file Zoology Nomenclature Set - D'nealian click on picture to link to file

I am a technology junky! At any given time you will find a collection of iPads, laptops, iPhones, smart T.V.s, e-readers, you name it. If you haven't read Goodnight iPad by Ann Droyd, you really should. This may very well have taken place in my house. ;) If you aren't sold on the importance of integrating technology in the classroom or have doubts, this video is an absolute MUST!! This video is one of the most powerful videos that I have watched lately. This year I was fortunate to receive Chromebooks for all of my students. Receiving these Chromebooks and feeling the pressure (mostly self-induced) to use them often and effectively was, and still is, overwhelming. To keep my sanity in check, I decided to start small. By starting small, I saved my sanity and also my students'. Whether you have one, two, three or many technology devices available for your students, start small!! To get you started or to simply get your creative technology juices flowing, I have a list of 10 simple ways to integrate technology into the classroom, and they are all free. These tools and resources are great for the classroom that is 1:1 with technology, or the classroom that has only one iPad or tablet. Do you only have one device? Create a center that focuses on the use of technology. 1. Listen/Watch digital stories. There are many free websites available where students can go, choose a book, and listen to the story. Zing and Storyonline are a perfect start! 2. Have students begin with a little research. Provide them with a topic and have them gather 3-5 facts. Here, on Upper Elementary Snapshots, we have a list of child-safe search engines that you can find HERE. 3. Create a Google form for students to choose their lunch choice for the day. 4. Practice math skills on IXL. IXL is a paid subscription, but students can practice for free until they have reached the daily problem limit. 5. Create a Kahoot to review for an upcoming test. They are a hoot and students LOVE them! 6. Have students visit Wonderopolis, read the wonder of the day, and reflect in their writing journal. 7. Create a classroom blog using Google's free Blogger. Post an open-ended reading question for students to comment. 8. For Social Studies, use KidsGeo.com to practice their geography skills. 9. If you are familiar with QR codes, create a question of the day and require students to check their answer by scanning the code. 10. Can students ever get enough practice with basic math facts?!?! XtraMath is a perfect free solution! Remember to start slow! Focus on one area of your choice. Allow students to become comfortable with using the tool and allow yourself to become comfortable implementing it. Once you and your students are comfortable, think about adding a new focus.
