Unofficial TPT Easter Sale

I'm joining many other TPT stores in an unofficial Easter sale on Sunday and Monday!  All items in my store will be 20%.  No codes are needed at check out since this isn't a TPT sponsored sale.

Stock up on some great graphing activities that will get your students up and moving around the room.  These activities are fun for spring and provide the much needed movement after a long winter! 

 

  

Silent Auction

On Friday, my school had their annual talent show and silent auction.  Each class provided or made items for the auction.  This year my class made coasters and they were a huge hit!  We'll be making some for Mother's Day because I think there were some disappointed moms that were outbid.

Just an FYI, permanent marker on tiles will not be set by baking them in the oven.  It's just a myth!  As a matter of fact, the artwork on the tiles that weren't baked before spraying stayed crisp and clear.

This was such an easy project.  Some students drew, some colored and some added the fine details. Everyone was able to participate and no one did a complete tile on their own.

My son's class made this beautiful piece of art. Unfortunately, I was outbid, but I successfully managed to help drive the bid up and help our PTO make money.  Another mother was more determined than I was, I guess.  It went for more than $175.00. I think it may have been the best money-maker at the auction.  Is it horrible to admit that I'm glad I didn't win it?

Does your school have a silent auction?  What have you made?  I forgot to get pictures of all of the creative ideas that our teachers had.

Here are a few of the coasters.

Allocation of Resources

Last week we discussed allocation of resources and used a candy bar to brainstorm ideas on how to distribute resources.  Everyone was very thoughtful while we pretended the candy bar was a resource other than a candy car.  Once we shared our ideas, the candy bar became the resource to share and their ideas sure changed!  It was a fun lesson! Once the chocolate kicked in, not so much fun. :)

Snow Day #11

It was just too cold for students to be out, so today was a pleasant surprise. I thought our district might be a bit more conservative after 10 days, but the temps today just weren't safe!

This gave me some time to get my interims finished up, and provide feedback on my purchases on TPT so that  I'm ready for the sale starting tomorrow.  Don't forget to earn your credits for giving feedback!

Here's a fun activity to use while it's still cold and snowy! With all of the indoor recesses, it's a great activity to get the students up and moving around the room. 

 

If you are tired of winter and would like something to remind you of summer, then this is a fun theme! 

 

Each item in the bundle can be found separately in my store.

I'm so excited to have finished this product.  My students have been using it in class and they are really making progress with their graphing skills. 

Snow Day #9

I'm hoping to use tomorrow to get caught up on here!  Yesterday was day #8, however, a coworker and I spent the day at a workshop. Not much fun on a snow day!
