Last week was insane. Can I get an A-MEN?! I'm tired, but my brain is wired from all the ideas I have right now. This happens just about every single night of my life. So here I am, blogging it all out, so that I can hopefully pass out and sleep all night until I have to get up for work.

Our current language arts unit is called "Taking A Stand" and is about different people who stand up for what they believe in. The reading is really quite interesting and the students have really connected with this theme. So I thought I would take a page out of my own book and do a little writing project we did last year....but with a few changes. I had the students think about a cause that they were passionate about and wanted to "take a stand" for. These causes ran the gamut in my room. Everything from standing up to bullying to shortening the school day made the list. Once students decided upon their stand, we did a guided writing of an "I am" poem. The poem was written from the point of view of the person taking the stand. So all lines of the poem were not autobiographical, rather in character of someone who believed in the cause. You can find the form for the "I am" poem at this website here. Then, and here is where it changed from last year, we headed to the computer lab, with the above mentioned website. What is awesome about that website is that the form of the "I am" poem is there, with blank type in boxes. The students simply typed in their own words, printed, and viola.....an instant poem! This was SO much faster than them hand-writing it out. It took less than 30 minutes for this to be completed...and I loved it! Even if you only have access to one or two computers, putting the students on there one at a time will be well worth it. The only downside is that there is no save feature, so they must print out before they log out or all will be lost. The students then created caricatures of those people taking a stand. This year the kids really got into these characters. The clothing was so geared towards forwarding the cause and letting the viewers know what it was. I was so impressed by these little people! Here are a few of them. I LOVE this one. He was taking a stand for teachers and saying they should get better pay. I love the shirt, the pencil pants, and the sleeves with all the books on it. So in cute! This girl was taking a stand and asking people to keep the beaches clean. Look at the clothing and shoes...perfectly in character! And all of these were posted up, looking like they are taking a stand at a protest. If you would like to do this in your room, here is a 4 point rubric for you to use (the same one I used). Have you done an "I am" poem in your class before? What did you use it for?
English Classroom Phrases Examples; What page are we on? I am ready. May I start it? Can I go out? Can I answer the question? Can I switch off the lights? Teacher, please can you repeat again? Can I open the window? Can we pack our things now? May I join the class/group? What is the homework? Do we have to write this down? Sorry, for being late. May I open / close the window? Can I go to the board? Can I come in? Can you explain it once more, please? May I go out please? Is this right?
A super hero twist on the getting to know you letter! I always send an info sheet with my student letter at the beginning of the year.

How do you start the first week in a special education class? I've been asked this question a lot lately, and understandably why! I think every teacher, no matter how long they have been teaching, has some sort of nightmares or sleepless nights about the first day/weeks (am I right?!). Here's what I focus on during those first couple of days.
Unser Kinder Affirmationsposter "Ich bin GUT und RICHTIG, genau so wie ich bin" soll mit vielen bestärkenden Wahrheiten Kinder dabei unterstützen, innere Stärke und Widerstandsfähigkeit zu entwickeln und ihren eigenen Weg zu gehen. Als besonders schöner Blickfänger mit hervorragender Lesbarkeit schon ab dem Grundschulalter sorgt es jeden Tag aufs Neue für positiven Zuspruch - ob im Kinderzimmer, Kindergarten oder Klassenzimmer oder einfach als einzigartiges Geschenk. Viele von uns hören ihre innere Stimme nicht mehr. Und wenn wir sie hören, spricht sie häufig eine negative Sprache. Sagt uns, dass wir nicht genügen, nicht richtig sind, nicht genug können oder leisten. Die innere Stimme entwickelt sich im Kindesalter. Deshalb ist es so wichtig, dieser Stimme so früh wie möglich eine positive und kraftvolle Richtung zu geben. Die kleinen, starken Leitsätze erinnern unsere Kinder jeden Tag daran, dass sie richtig sind, genau so wie sie sind. So können wir sie dabei unterstützen, eine starke und liebevolle innere Stimme zu entwickeln, die zu innerer Stärke, einem gesunden Selbstbewusstsein und echter Selbstannahme führt. Damit unsere Kinder gewappnet sind für die großen und kleinen Abenteuer des Lebens, für Tage an denen die Sonne scheint und für solche, an denen alles schief zu laufen scheint. Damit sie allem, was das Leben an Hochs und Tiefs bereithält, selbstbestimmt und kraftvoll begegnen können. - "ich bin GUT und RICHTIG, genau so wie ich bin"-Poster im DIN A1 Format, 59,4 cm x 84,1 cm (Lieferung OHNE Rahmen) - hochwertiges UV-beständiges 170g Papier - CO2-neutral produziert - mit umweltfreundlichen Druckfarben gedruckt

Learning to crochet practically means learning another language- or at least that's what it may seem like at first. Don't worry! Our guide, How to Read Crochet Patterns, will help you master this new language! Reading crochet patterns is done from left to right, just like you're reading a book, which is a helpful thing to remember at the start. I am here to help you understand how to read crochet patterns, no matter if you are a beginner crocheter that is just starting out or if you're more advanced and looking for a refresher. Crochet patterns usually have a few things in common. Most of them start out with a foundation chain where other stitches are worked from later. However, there are a few patterns that start out with a chainless foundation, which creates your stitches and your chain at the same time and completes the first row.
Alphabet "Who Am I?" Game Cards Looking for a fun, interactive game for your classroom? "Who Am I?" game cards will have your students playing together and learning ..... all while having fun! This game is incredibly simple to assemble. We play this game in class by using a headbands game I purchased, and then substituting the cards for these game cards for learning. There are many ways to play (depending on the age level), but generally the game is played by students asking questions that have yes and no answers. My students especially LOVE when I wear the headband! It's also a great way to demonstrate how to play the game by asking your students questions about the "mystery" picture upon your head.

**This listing is two PDF patterns in English** The tank tops are made by knitting a cable panel, grafting its ends together, then picking up and knitting the body from the panel sides. The body is worked in the round, gradually tapering, before it is separated at the underarms into two panels worked flat. At the neckline, front and back are worked differently, creating i-cords and applied i-cords until there are three i-cord straps at each shoulder. These are then braided and grafted to the shoulder directly behind them. Videos of the process are included. Language: English **Purchase includes an additional Low Vision File with 22 point Sans Serif Font, no columns or italics, and page numbers on the right side** Knitting level: Intermediate. Most difficult skills utilized: picking up stitches along a vertical edge, cabling, and grafting with kitchener stitch (all are explained with written instructions and videos) Sizes: Children: Newborn (3m, 6m, 12m, 18m, 24m) (2t, 4t, 6, 8, 10, 12) Women: 1 (2, 3, 4) (5, 6, 7) (8, 9, 10) (11, 12, 13) (14, 15, 16) (17, 18) to fit a 28” to 62” full bust. Gauge: Children: 16 sts and 22 rows in 4” (10.2cm) Women: 16 sts and 20 rows in 4" (10.2cm) Materials: Yarn: Children: 210 (225, 230, 240, 255, 265) (275, 295, 310, 330, 355, 375) or 230 (246, 252, 262, 279, 290) (301, 323, 339, 361, 388, 410) meters of Shiny Happy Cotton by Wool and the Gang which is 155 yds (142m) per 100g ball. Women: 450 (480, 505, 535) (565, 595, 630) (655, 690, 720) (755, 785, 815) (845, 875, 905) (940, 970) yards or 490 (525, 550, 585) (620, 650, 690) (715, 755, 785) (825, 860, 890) (925, 955, 990) (1030, 1060) meters of Shiny Happy Cotton *Tip: For ease of knitting i-cord, you may prefer DPNs, but you can use a regular needle by slipping the stitches purlwise from the right needle to the left needle. Alternatively, I like to use interchangeable needles and knit my I-cord with the tips only.* Notions: Removable stitch markers Fixed stitch marker Tapestry needle Waste yarn or yarn holder If get confused, feel free to email me your questions—no question is considered too “dumb”, and I’m happy to help!
