Spelling Homework Menu & Something about a Sale

 I am so much more focused when I have a deadline!  I was determined to get this Spelling Homework Menu Packet  done before the sale was over.   I made it!  Though, it was already half finished and sitting on the back burner for months.   I am so excited that it is done and ready for me to use in September.  My students love picking their own spelling homework assignments and I am sure they will love this packet.  Click the image above to check it out on Teachers Pay Teachers and snag it while it is on sale.  Below is a sample activity from the packet.  I also think these would make easy centers or great early finisher activities.

Another packet, I squeezed in under the wire is this Ultimate Bright Polka Dot, Primary Penmanship Font Decor Bundle.   I listened to my Q&A’s last year requesting more primary friendly font in my decor packets.  When Kimberly Geswein came out with her Primary Penmanship font, I knew I had found the perfect font for the job.  I apologize that I have not gotten to making the leveled labels and the library labels in the primary font, but I will try to get to it this week.   Switching out fonts is not a one, two, three thing.  It messes up the whole packet.   I actually started over from scratch, in Power Point, for the packets containing the primary font.  It was just easier for me than working in Word again.  
Now, I want to re-do my decor in these!  We will see if I have time to print and laminate.  I always donate my old items to colleagues.   Everyone loves free and already laminated! 
I also finished this little birthday board set.  I am loving all the positive feedback I am getting.  Just remember if you are having trouble printing, it is probably because your computer does not have enough memory.  Try one page at a time or going to options and printing as an image.  For the newer files, I was able to shrink the size of the pdf, to try and eliminate that problem.

Thank you Amy Lemons for the adorable graphic!!

Now, you have to be living under a rock not to have heard about the BIG BACK TO SCHOOL TPT SALE.   It is huge.  Most sellers are offering 20% off and then TpT is offering 10% off with coupon code BTS13.

    Rats! I was so behind on my Bloglovin' feed but saw that everyone was having a sale, that I didn't check for additional promo codes before buying your Dominoes and CC 1-120 packs. Oh well – still glad I have them!

Students naturally seem to want to say “that’s ok. Students naturally seem to want to say “that’s ok.” to an apology but it is never ok to hurt a fellow student’s feelings, body, or to make them uncomfortable. 

“I accept your apology.” Is a good way for students to move past it if they are willing to do so. 

What do you have your students say?
