Making a Footpath is so easy! I am going to walk you through it now. You can do these with a variety of themes to fit any occasion - classroom theme, birthday party theme, etc. You need: butcher paper stickers construction paper glue laminator (optional) #1 Lay out 2 pieces of butcher paper side by side. Mine are about 6 feet long each. Find stickers (or clipart) that you want for your theme. I used these ocean stickers and color copied, enlarging them 400%. I matted the color-copied stickers with construction paper for durability and to color coordinate with the path. I placed them on the paper but NOT directly across from one another. Then I began making my path. Here, the yellow matted fish coordinate with the yellow strips of construction paper that I cut. I made the path twisty and turny for added fun. Here my lovely assistant is gluing them down for me. The process continues with each color. Blue here. Then orange. See how the colors criss-cross and overlap? Purple came next. Last - green. Here's a view from the top. Children will start on one picture, say the shark, then follow that path until they reach the other shark. It's even more fun when more than one child is on the footpath at a time. I laminated mine for durability but you don't have to. I saw this done at a children's museum in London, but they painted it onto the floor. Kids love it.

Hi Everyone, It is me again, trying to catch up a little. Here are some freebies for everyone! I hope you all enjoy. I will catch up..... ...
I found a great site, Mama Jenn, that had a great calendar for morning meetings. I decided to recreate one for my classroom and change a few things for my needs. (click on the Mama Jenn link for original calendar). I decided to keep the day, month and year (like Mama Jenn)- however I decided for the date to have proper dates instead of numbers. In Australia, our date goes day/month/year, so I also decided to put them in that order on my board. I downloaded a 2012 calendar from http://calendars.vertex42.com/pdfs/blank-2012-calendar-portrait-ink-saver.pdf I got these cute season and weather cards from Mrs Pancake Read below about how I use 'I wonder questions'. I have just created a deluxe version with rainbow borders and 13 new questions. You can get these in my tpt store on the following link: I wonder deluxe. Scroll down for the original version. I decided to add on a question of the week to get my students thinking, wondering and using their imaginations. I have about 45 questions and each Monday I will ask one and the students can discuss their answer with a partner. Each day during the week for a few minutes we can discuss this question, add further questions to the topic and even extend it to a writing session. I typed these questions up and printed them. To get all questions click on the following link I wonder questions Like Mama Jenn, I decided to keep how many days have we been at school because I think that is a great idea to help students practice their place value on a daily basis. Thats about it, again- not my original idea, but adapted it to my needs.
