Do you need Smartboard or Promethean board activities?
As many of you know, I am a HUGE fan of Tabitha Carro with Flapjack Education. I have purchased her items before I even met her. I have been working with her to convert all of her Smartboard files to Activinspire files for the Promethean board. She has a great deal going on now if you teach Pre-K-1st grade. She just added her Kindergarten Promethean board activities on TPT.
Click the picture to send you to her TPT store.
They are on sale right now for $5.00! You can never find all of this work for $5.00. It is so worth it!
She also has 1st grade Smartboard and Promethean board files as well.

Last Feature Teacher Tuesday
NOOO! It’s come to an end! This is the last blog post for a while of the Featured Teacher Tuesdays!
Years of tumbling, cheerleading and a passion for teaching made her blog name come to life! She has been teaching for 9 years, 6 of those being in first grade! She has truly found her teaching niche!
Heidi has been married for 15 years (yep, he’s tied up in the basement) and has two beautiful girls ages 15 (don’t do the math) and 10! Faith brings joy in her life each and every day! God has blessed her family and teaching career! She is a middle child (typical middle child syndrome) and requires lots of attention from those around her!
Organization fuels Heidi through first grade! (It may be a disease!) Check out her blog for some amazing tips on how to organize Words Their Way, Listening Stations, Behavior Management, Erin Condren Planner, Common Core Assessments, Classroom tips and so much more!
Laughing is important to Heidi! Mo Willems, first grade quotes, and National Lampoon movies can put a smile on her face. Just like Wimberly, Heidi can worry a lot! Therefore Heidi clings to
Psalm 46:10 “Be still, and know I am God!
Heidi’s best seller is her Editable Daily Behavior Chart! This is an amazing product that every teacher who has a student with challenging behavior needs!! Heidi loves to hear success stories about teachers using this in their classrooms!!
Fry’s First 100 Sight Words came about when she had 30% of her students struggling with sight words! Yikes! To overcome this obstacle, Heidi created a product that focuses on teaching the words in context using pictures, repetition, and motor skills! She ended that year with 100% of her students knowing all first grade sight words! Love it!
Heidi’s First Grade Common Core Math Assessments are a full year’s worth of assessments! She even has a blog post with a yearly calendar to help you plan!
Check out one of Heidi’s freebies!
Don’t forget to join me in following Heidi!

Meet Karen Wasdin from Silly Sam Productions!
Karen has been teaching 1st Grade for almost 30 years. She is a Baseball Mom from New Jersey and loves to watch her son play for the High School team and travel teams. Her husband is a Videographer/Photographer and she enjoys assisting him in producing sports and educational videos in his business, MoonGate Video Productions.
Finding ways to help her young learners understand the trickiest concepts has driven her to create multi-sensory approaches and engaging lessons that MAKE LEARNING FUN! These techniques can be found in her products at TpT.
Color-Coded Fact Families Mental Math uses the color-coding technique to help learners make connections to math strategies.
is an integrated Reader’s and Writer’s Workshop unit that has students look at the story of the Three Little Pigs through the eyes of different characters. Then they do the same with their own personal narrative about their first day of school. This helps them truly discover and empathize with others and recognize feelings other than their own.
is an extensive unit covering the heart of the first grade phonics curriculum. Word Houses use patterning chunks and vowel sounds to help students become stronger readers and writers. Creating their own Vowel Books helps students celebrate all that they have learned.
