Are you eager to start off the school year? Nothing excites me more than the promise of a new school year. To kick off the new school year, I thought I would do a giveaway for a $10.00 Teacher's Pay Teachers gift card. You may want to use this money for the upcoming sale on TPT. You can save up to 25% off using the code BTS22. This annual Back to School Sale will be on August 2nd and 3rd.
Before entering this giveaway in the Rafflecopter below, I first just want to highlight this temporarily FREE Back to School Interactive Notebook product that I am particularly proud of and can't wait to share with you. I have a variety of interactive notebooks that can now be used on a digital device as well as be printed out for use within the classroom.
Students will have fun putting together this Back to School interactive notebook as they introduce themselves and get to know classroom routines and expectations. This is a fabulous way to get your students to practice their skills and show off what they have learned. Many of these pages can simply be printed out and used as a regular handout. You may want to begin using this product as an interactive notebook It has very simple cut-outs that make it super easy for young students who are just getting used to using scissors. Students will cut on the dotted lines and fold on the solid lines and paste them into a standard-sized 8.5" X 11" Notebook. Students will draw under flaps to answer responses and not have to worry about cutting out small pieces that just get lost. You can find this product embedded within the Kindergarten Literacy Interactive Notebook or you can get it as a free Bonus file as part of the Kindergarten Interactive Notebook Bundle which includes Literacy, Math, and Science.
As you begin the school year, it is imperative that you build a strong classroom community and discuss ways to make good choices throughout the day. I put together this bundle of products that will help teachers build a community of kindness, responsibility, respect, and acceptance of other people's differences. Students will learn ways to discriminate between good choices vs. poor choices. Your class will also learn to discriminate the difference between tattling and reporting. This is something that can be difficult for students. Students need to learn that it is important to only let the teacher or an adult know something if it is dangerous, destructive, or harmful. We do not tell on others to try to get them in trouble. It is best to try and work out minor issues on your own without adult help whenever possible. Grab the desk incentives to let the students know they are on the right track. Send checklists home with the good choices students have made throughout the day. Let them feel a sense of "shine" as they show it off to their families.
