F R E E Friday! 🚌My students love morning meet F R E E  Friday! 🚌My students love morning meetings, I love morning meetings, and subs love them, too.  I have weekly themed meetings slides that I use throughout the year.  You can easily edit them or add to them.  When I am absent, I add my phonics, writing, and math slides to them to make it easier for a sub to get through the day. 
🏫You can grab a free sample slide set for the first day of school by commenting BTS below.

Take the stress out of dismissal with a dismissal Take the stress out of dismissal with a dismissal binder!  I have been teaching for over two decades and this is something I use this everyday. 
How it works:
1. Gather student information on through the student information sheets.  I send these home in June but also place one in summer mailings.  If we can’t mail, I attach a PDF to a parentsquare message.
2. Once the info comes in, I number the pages according to the students’ abc order.
3.  I take the info from the sheets and type it into my editable templates.
4. I print the template pages and organize in a binder.

On a classmate’s special day, everyone writes and draws a page for the birthday child. Then you bind it into a keepsake book they get to take home and share with their family.  My students love incorporating the birthday student’s favorite color.

It’s simple, meaningful, and creates the sweetest classroom tradition.

How I organize my lesson plans: 1. I edit my Googl How I organize my lesson plans:
1. I edit my Google based slides based template for the week.  I use my plans from last year and duplicate or copy and paste depending on if the schedules are similar.  By creating them digitally, I can edit from everywhere, all changes are auto saved, and I can give shared access to my push-in teacher and admin.
2. I print my plans and keep them in a lay-flat binder on my desk. This helps me stay on pace for the day and also makes it easier for a sub if I am out. 
3. I have tabs for other important information, which I reference.  Included in my plan book resource is a pull-out/push-in schedule template, shown above.  Included in my bundle are the other organizational forms and a few freebies (see my reel a few back of the whole book). 

📖 Do you want to get your plans organized this year?  Comment “plan book” and I will send you the link to this resource, plus the bundle, and the lay-flat binder.
