$10 TPT Giftcard Giveaway!

 Good News!!

  

Teachers Pay Teachers is having their #BestYearEver sale tomorrow and Monday so start getting your carts ready! You'll be able to get up to 28% off products to help you with your Back to School needs.

To help you out, I'm not only giving away a $10 TPT gift card to one lucky winner, but I'm also going to give away 1 product of your choice (Bundles not included) from my store to another winner!

 Here are some of my favorite products to check out in case you win!

When you add beads to anything is makes it more fun! So why not add letter beads to some of your literary centers?? My Read it, Bead it, Type it, Wipe it packs are the perfect way to do that.

 These help them not only with spelling sight words, cvc words or monthly themed words, but it also helps them with beginning sound recognition, fine motor and handwriting practice. (I have had people use other manipulatives instead of beads, like magnetic letters or letter tiles to build the words.)

If you teach time, my time pack is definitely a fun and engaging way to help your students. It has 93 pages of jam packed fun! Printables, centers, games, an emergent reader & even a class book!

Next up is my Basis Astronomy pack. This is full of fun and simple hands-on activities.

Also, my Seven Continents pack. This is a great addition to any continent unit! This has posters, word wall labels, quizzes, art projects & interactive pages for your students to make their own continent books.

There are other packs available in my store like Shape Posters, Editable Banners, Alphabet Playdough Mats, Word Wall Letters and more! 

Now down to business:

 Enter the Rafflecopter below for your chance to win a $10 TPT gift card AND another winner for your choice of 1 product from my store! (excluding bundles).

Good Luck!!

Stampin It Up!!!

Have you met Kimberly Ann?? She is seriously the sweetest girl! She is the author of:

If you don't follow her already, make sure you do. She shares fabulous ideas and amazing products!


I love, Love, LOVE her "Stamp It" pack!

First of all....ALL little kids love stamps. I have yet to meet one child who doesn't.
This 44 page pack is SO engaging and fun. It's perfect for a word work center and includes a variety of pages to keep your kiddos busy! AND this will definitely help them strengthen their fine motor skills without even knowing it!

Kimberly included 35 different "Trace It! Stamp It! Write It!" pages; 26 of which are different word family pages, and the rest are sight words.

She also included ABC stamp pages, beginning and ending sounds, and missing vowel pages. Seriously you guys, this pack is fabulous!

My adorable 7-year-old Niece and 4-year-old Nephew came to town for Thanksgiving and when I asked them if they'd want to do this with me they were so excited!!

 We started out with the Trace it, Stamp it, Write it pages. My Niece worked on this one and she loved it!

Then we decided to switch it up a little bit. I laminated a few pages and then they used playdough to stamp the letters, and a dry erase marker to trace and write it!

This is my barely-turned-4-year-old nephew! Didn't he do a great job!? My sister told me that he hasn't learned his lowercase letters yet, and look how good he wrote them!
Proud Aunt....right here! :)

There are 2 different ABC pages included. One completely blank and one with missing letters:

My nephew also worked on the beginning sound page and rocked it!

My sweet niece had fun with the ending sound page:

And last, but not least, the middle vowel pages.
She wrote on one page with pencil:

Playdough stamped another page:

And then wrote with a dry erase marker:

There are so many different ways that you can use these pages!
Normal stamps, playdough stamps, dry erase markers, pencils....you could even use magnetic letters, letter tiles or letter stamp markers!

The possibilities are endless, and all the different variations will definitely keep your students engaged and loving life!

If you want to go to Kimberly Ann's TPT store to grab this amazing pack for yourself or add it to your wishlist, then click HERE, and while you're there you should click the star and follow her so you'll be informed whenever she adds new amazing products to her store!

IN FACT, Kimberley Ann is so sweet, she has offered to give away one copy of her "Stamp It" pack to one of my readers!!! Yay!!

Want to See What I Bought!?

Today I am linking up with Bloghoppin' to show you what I bought during the sale!

I LOVE the site wide sales, don't you!? I actually purchased more during this sale than any other sale! :s  Haha. Don't worry though, my husband even TOLD me I could! (He's so great.)

Since I'm not in the classroom this year I only purchased graphics this time....although I did add a TON of great packs to my wishlist for when I'm in the classroom again!

I ended up making 2 different purchases (to utilize tpt credits more, of course!) This was my first purchase:

 I also purchased another single font license from KG Fonts

I am so excited to be part of Kelly's first "Border Hoarders Club" for January! Is it bad if a part of me, a VERY small part of me, hopes I don't like it so I won't want to keep purchasing it each month? LOL. Let's be honest though....her borders are AMAZING! I know I definitely won't be disappointed and I CANNOT wait to download the surprises each week! You still have time to join her January club...what are you waiting for!?


My second purchase was all CVC graphics. If you're a fan of my "Read it, Bead it, Type it, Wipe it" products, then this is a hint to what will be coming soon!
