I am posting my Find Your Joy
and it will be 5 for Friday...
I know my favorite number is 3 BUT
I have 5 things to share :)
NUMBER ONE

NUMBER TWO
Bub found this butterfly struggling in my parent's backyard and asked my mom if he could take care of it... he found her a flower to rest on.... such a big heart :) LOVE HIM |
Carson Dellosa contacted me about doing a review for them and
HOW can you turn that down???
![]() |
carsondellosa.com |
they are one of the bestest companies around for getting teacher supplies and necessities...
did you know they were founded by teachers... me neither so now you do...
you are very welcome *wink*
and one of the items they sent me was this...
a cutie patootie ladybug pencil topper...
we added a pencil and our RACK tag and
WHA LAA
the perfect little surprise for the littles at our school!!!
we tape them in the Kinder and 1st bathrooms and in their cubbies when they are out at lunch or recess
the teachers talk about how the kids LOVE finding the
"BUGS" and the bathroom requests have quadrupled
because they hope to find one of these...
too bad we only do 3 a day...
the toppers come in a pack of 12 so we can do this for
four days :)
the ladybugs are so cute and it looks like they are chomping on the pencil too :) |
GUESS what else they sent me...
a POCKET CHART...
holla....
so I think I need to number this ...
NUMBER 6
I am loving this pocket chart...
and do you see the velcro closure pocket...
YES YES you read that right...
it is a POCKET
BUT the best part is it holds a lot
and because it has the velcro closure your contents stay secure :)
it is AH-mazing how much this pocket holds... |
on this pocket chart...
straight from CD (Carson Dellosa)
teaching sight words, and more!
•6 horizontal clear pockets
•1 storage pocket with hook and loop tape closure
•19” x 25”
what teacher doesn't love velcro closures... |
Braggin Badges....
STICKERS...
which were perfect for the assembly we had today...
every 6 weeks we pick 2 STAR STUDENTS
from every class
and they are recognized in front of the whole school for being AWESOME!!!
and we had some really jealous peeps in the crowd because
my cool Star Students sported
STAR STUDENT stickers :)
we were BRAGGIN fo sho
So not only did they send me goodies....
BUT they are going to send these goodies to one of my readers too!!!!
WHAT!!!!
and all you have to do is this
a Rafflecopter giveaway
and if you are not a winner all of these fancy schmancy things can be found
at carsondellosa.com or at a participating retailer

I love the RACK idea for the classroom! It could easily be used all year and be called Random Acts of Classroom Kindness.

ReplyDeleteI LOVE LOVE LOVE carson delosa and have for MANY MANY MANY years!!! I did know they were started by teachers!!!
ReplyDeleteI read your blog regularly but somehow RACK slipped past me. I love that idea! And the pocket chart... the most obvious ideas/inventions are always the best and putting pockets on the chart - brilliant!
ReplyDeleteLisa
I enjoy reading your blog, even though I teach 1st, not 4th. I like the RACK idea and am filing it away for next year.
ReplyDeleteI love the RACK idea. I think I am going to do this not only with my class, but also with my children at home!
ReplyDeleteMrs. Pauley’s Kindergarten
RACK is cool! It has really motivated me to get my students busy kind - less time to bicker :0)
ReplyDeleteIn the words of the great McDonald's...."I'm lovin' it!"

ReplyDeleteLove the idea of placing the pencils around school! Might have to head to Lakeshore today.
ReplyDeleteOur RACK is going really well! Our class is going from class to class cleaning the computers. They love carrying their clean team basket around the school. They feel like rock stars!
I just posted about it today!

ReplyDeletePS- we are making RACK ornaments to give to each class in our school, plus the support staff. I had these from Oriental traders, five strips of paper, attach the top and bottom of each strip to form the sphere. They took them home this weekend to design them. I picked up mini candy canes. So excited! thanks for the idea!!
