2019-2020 Teacher Binders and Planners...Ready.To.GO!

Well, here we are...it's that time again!! BACK TO SCHOOL! As much as I love, love, LOVE my summer, there is something so fun about Back to School! Back to the routine, shiny school supplies, setting up the classroom and meeting your new crop of fresh faces! While it can be a fun and exciting time, it is also a time to get organized! I have my Teacher Binders and Planners ready to go for the school year and have proved to be the ULTIMATE organizer!

Check out the previews for the  Chevron Pink Teacher Binder & Planner...







AND here's a SNEAK PEEK of my new Teacher Planner coming out soon...

It is not in my TpT store yet as I just created it for my own personal use. And it matches my classroom decor. #winning

I think I will call it the "Black & Bright" Teacher Planner ?!




STAY TUNED for a GIVEAWAY tomorrow!! One lucky teacher winner will win this Ready to Print Planner. I will customize the cover to match your name, of course! Whoo hoo!

Monthly Reading Logs for Elementary Readers!


We recently added Monthly Reading Logs to our 2nd grade Homework Routine. It is such a great way to ENCOURAGE daily reading and give you, as the teacher, an idea how much your students are reading (or not reading) at home. I also loved learning about the types of books they chose to read and it allowed me to get a sneak peek into their reading interests!


Most of my students could fill out the log on their own and parents would simply initial that their child read for the day. My own daughter was a 2nd grader last year and we would take turns recording her reading but towards the end of the year, it was completely her responsibility. Score! All I had to do was initial.

So, I decided TODAY that I would wrap a pretty bow around my Monthly Reading Logs to share with everyone! What does that mean??

Well, it means these reading logs are now on TpT and they are FREE for 48 hours (thru July 23rd!) Yes, FREE....so hurry, go snag it NOW!!

But, I did decide to add another version to these logs for the younger readers (K-2)...


This version has columns for "Read to Child" and "Read by Child" for those beginning readers who may feel more comfortable being read to! As teachers, we want our kids immersed in good literature and if they aren't reading on their own quite yet, it's ok! This allows the parent to know that it's ok and also gives the option for choosing good fit books for their child to read independently!

Here's a preview....


I have both versions available from AUGUST-JULY. Why in that order? I actually created these 1 month at a time last school year and started with August. Since we got out of school on June 1st, I actually didn't use June or July. But I created them today, in case anyone has year-round school or summer school!


FREE for 48 hours! (thru July 23rd)
If you snag this for free, I would GREATLY appreciate it if you would rate and give feedback!
Thanks, in advance!!

UPDATE!! (finally)

Wow-my poor, little blog has been collecting dust for WAAAY too long. Some years are just busier than others and as with life, some days are longer and it still seems you can't get it all done. ((SIGH))

BUT...I did take the time yesterday to update my Great Sub Reference Binder for the 2016-2017 school year. I have had 2 requests recently from potential buyers so I knew it was time!


This has continued to be my top #1 seller.

 I created it for myself many years ago when I first went on maternity leave when I had my daughter. I was able to provide my long term sub with all the important info and she was so grateful. 

Then two years later when we were blessed with another pregnancy, I revamped my sub binder for my sub and I was able to make it even better. 

Fast forward several more years and it was and still is my top seller on TpT. Last year, I participated in the TpT Seller Challenge and gave it a complete makeover...




I loved how it turned out! It is now updated with the 2016-2017 calendar, so be sure to check it out. Here's a sneak peek at a calendar page. 



If you have already purchased, then all you need to do is go into your purchases page and download the latest version.

Don't have a sub binder yet? This could be great for a short-term sub, too! Once you have it prepared, it can stay on your desk for whenever you have to be out! This page could be handy...

Simply enter your text and print! 

This binder also includes black and white pages for easy printing. :)

I'm also working hard this week to update my teacher binders...I will be adding a planner to the binder, too! I'll be sure to post when I have them ready to go!

Thanks for reading and HAPPY SUMMER!
