My First Grade Plan Book

Update on 5/2/16:  
I have added the following updates to this post since the links below are no longer available.   I modified Ms. M.’s template and sent it back to her.  She now sells the “Erica” template in her store.  You can get it here.   
I also sell a PowerPoint version of my plan book file here:
Original post from November 12, 2011:

A few weeks ago, I shared my plans for the week of October 17th in my Bats Acrostic Poems Post (click {here} to check it out).  Well, I have gotten so many emails asking me to share and editable version with you.  Unfortunately, I cannot do that because I cannot share the Scrappin’ Doodles graphics in a non-pdf file and my plan book is modified from a model purchased from Ms. M’s store, A Teacher’s Plan.  Fortunately, you can purchase the graphics yourself from Scrappin’ Doodles by clicking my link to the left and searching for “school stick kids” and “my favorite teacher.”  You can also purchase the lesson plan template “Is Everything Here?” from Ms. M. by clicking the picture below.

I hope this helps!  Please, tell Ms. M. I sent you.

    lol Jennifer! Erica, I agree, they look excellent! I have been so indecisive about which plan to choose from Ms. M, she has so many excellent forms. You helped convince me to purchase this form! Thanks!!

    Thanks for posting this Erica! I've had this on my to-do list for a while, so today I finally purchased my template from Mrs. M. Love it! I've already customized it to fit my needs! 🙂

    I am totally in love with all of Ms. M's templates, but most would need to be modified for me to use in middle school. How "editable" are they??? Your plans are fabulous btw!

🎂Happy 20th Birthday @teacherspayteachers ! I hav 🎂Happy 20th Birthday @teacherspayteachers !

I have been with TpT since 2008!  I remember looking for a place where I could share my computer created resources with other teachers without having to set up my own website.  TpT was suggested.  I started off with a few Microsoft Word created resources 😬. At the time, the founder of TpT, Paul and his brother Dana, were single-handedly running things. I loved getting their newsletters.

In 2009 I was in a NY times article for TpT about who owns the copyright to teacher’s lesson plan ideas…the schools or the teachers.  This was not the article the author or editors told me I would be in, but that is another story! 

I stuck with TpT and creating resources and then in 2011, the site really took off and I met all these other amazing teacher-authors and finally met Paul in real life! 

As a single homeowner on a teachers salary, I worked nights and weekends on TpT resources just to be able to afford to live in my little house.  Then something amazing happened, my hard work paid off and I was able to get myself some breathing room.  I am so grateful for TpT for giving my life purpose and financial freedom back in those days.  Even though I am married now, I am so proud of myself for being able to own that little house (I still have it and rent it out) and buy my forever home in my dream neighborhood all by myself.

So many of you found out about TpT and so many more sellers joined.  It truly became the open market place that Paul envisioned all those years ago. 

TpT is still a big part of my life all these years (and hair colors) later.  I know when I eventually retire from teaching, I will be able to do TpT full time.  I love creating and sharing resources (880 and counting) with all of you.
