I just read the 5 Star Blogger challenge, and I feel... weird about it. I'm not sure these tips are right for my little blog. I'm not starting this blog to become a seller. This isn't to say I won't ever go there (let's face it, some extra money would be nice), but right now I hardly have time to keep up with my classroom, much less create for yours. And I think as a new blogger and a not-seller, the rules are a little different. I think linky parties, tag, and awards are more important as a new blogger, because you have to help readers find you. I work hard at finding worthy blogs to link to, and I love feeling like I can help other bloggers. As a reader, I love getting to know the bloggers behind the blogs, so I try to include some me in my posts, too. Honestly? Lately the real 'content' stuff takes me a lot of time and doesn't seem to go over as well as I expect, which makes me wonder if my ideas aren't at all innovative or useful. Or maybe people just don't comment. It's hard to say. In any case, I'm going to make it a goal to have more content worth your time. Not so I can put a blog badge here (because, honestly, I feel a little like Emily over at Second Grade Silliness about the whole thing), but because I know I can give you better ideas and resources. While I'm getting this out there, I kind of want the community of a teacher blogging group that doesn't involve a big investment (since, like I said, I'm not counting on my blogging becoming a money-making venture). If anyone wants to start a low-key group where we try to figure this teacher-blogging stuff out together on a free, casual basis... let me know. I'm no expert, but I think we can learn from each other (and Google) and enjoy the support! The main support group for teacher bloggers is just a lot out of my price range for something that's purely a hobby, and I know I'm probably not the only one in that boat. Anyway.... real content time! Distinguishing between reality and fantasy is usually pretty easy for my kids, but sometimes they get it confused with fiction and fantasy confused. We also just happened to come back from a long weekend where kids were dying to share what they did, or who they visited, or how many Easter eggs they found, so this was a great way to kill two birds with one stone. Simple- fold the paper in half, then fold down a little flap on top. Write Reality on one side, Fantasy on the other. The one above was my sample. (Don't laugh at my drawings! If you're wondering what the dogs really look like, you can see photographs here.) A student example: Reality- "I am ready for piano." Fantasy- "Fly in the sky." Below is the girl who can draw ten times better than I can. I try not to get too jealous. On the Reality side, the students were supposed to tell me how they really spent their weekend. On the Fantasy side, they had to draw a fantasy of their weekend- which means that not only did it not happen, but it also couldn't have happened in real life! (I zoomed in so you can see this egg hunt up close. How cute is that?!) I particularly enjoyed the dichotomy of eating at Chipotle and an alien invasion of Mexico. If I were to do this again, I might've done 3 sections- Non-Fiction (what did happen), Realistic Fiction (something that didn't happen but could've), and Fantasy (didn't happen and never could), but as it was, I loved their drawings. "I had a soccer game." and "An alien punched me." (k pow) Pretty sweet unicorn, amirite? (Am I right?) "I am hunting for Easter eggs" and "I have turned into a dragon!" This one confuses me. I'm not so sure he understands what 'reality' means... any ideas what this is? So, in conclusion... I'm not a 5 Star Blogger, & I'm okay with that. I want teacher blogging friends and that could be you! Please leave me your best guess for what's going on in that last 'reality' drawing!

I absolutely LOVE when it's time to teach about Fantasy and Fairytales! There are so many good books out there. Some of my favorites are the fractured fairytales! The kiddos LOVE it, but sometimes have a hard time differentiating between fantasy and reality scenarios. Because of this, I thought it would be so fun to make some games and activities to help them! Fantasy vs. Reality packet to help introduce the difference between reality and fantasy! I even loved seeing them read the cards because they thought some of the "fantasy" cards were too funny! I did these in small group with my students but it can be done whole group or in a literacy station! Click on the picture to grab a copy! :) I hope you enjoy this as much as my kiddos and I did! :)
