Fall Break

It's hard to but it is fall break all ready! I just received a call from one of my teacher friends telling me about her parent teacher conferences tonight. That got me to thinking, do any of you use a special form during conferences? I need to create a new one and am looking for some fresh ideas on the format. I also want to create a new "Homework" page to give parents when they leave so they can give me feedback on the conference and ask any questions they may have forgotten to ask. What do you think?

Great Free Websites for Summer Skills Practice

Summer is time for having fun, going on vacation, playing outside and above all no school. It's a great time to make memories with friends and family, but it is also a time when your child could forget some of the skills he was taught in school. Fortunately, there are some great free websites that you can go to that will not only help your child practice his/her math, language arts, social studies, and science skills but helps them learn in a fun way. I use many of these in the classroom with my students suring the school year and they love them. I hope you find one that fits your needs and helps your child grow. http://www.starfall.com Starfall is a great website for early childhood students. They can practice their phonics and reading skills by playing games and listening to stories. You can also order a workbook, puzzles, games, readers, and other products that reinforce what your child is learning on the website. I used Stafall a lot when I taught first grade. It's fun, colorful, engaging and the student love it. http://www.abcya.com ABCya is a website that is designed for student in K4-5th. You can choose the grade level your child is in or a higher or lower one based upon their ability.

Will This Rain Ever Stop?

It has been raining for over a week now and according to the news it is going to last at least another week! It has rained so much I am beginning to grow gills and webs between my fingers and toes! Not really but if this continues for too long I am going to try to talk my husband into moving somewhere drier.  I've been working on creating teaching resources but it is going slowly these days-I'm spending a lot of time trying to figure out this blogger stuff. Speaking of this blogger stuff look for a newly updated and more attractive blog soon!!
