Back to School with Freebielicious

I know, I know, why am I talking about Back to School when it’s weeks and weeks and weeks away?

Okay, actually, the first day of school is exactly four weeks from today and I can’t get over the fact that it starts on a Monday. A MONDAY. I have not started school on a Monday since . . . well, possibly never. I can’t remember if I have ever started school on a Monday. I almost always start on a Wednesday and in a couple of instances, a Thursday.

But a Monday? Seriously? A MONDAY!? That is cruel and unusual punishment, especially because our kinder is still a half-day program so my new first graders will be with me ALL DAY for AN ENTIRE WEEK and not only that but, people, OUR WEDNESDAY EARLY DISMISSAL DAY IS NOT AN EARLY DISMISSAL DAY THE FIRST WEEK.

My tummy hurts.

Not to mention, I am still sick. I don’t know what I’ve got. It’s probably just your common cold, but seeing as how I rarely get sick (yes, rarely!), I feel the need to moan and groan about it and gain as much sympathy as possible.

In any case, I’m going to stay in my pajamas all day today (it helps that it’s cloudy and overcast), recover from Vegas (post coming soon!), nurse my cold, and maybe start printing some Back to School stuff. Because that doesn’t take too much energy.

Anywho, it’s true. I’m thinking about Back to School whether I want to or not. I can’t help it. It’s on my brain.

My girls at Freebielicious and I have teamed up with Educents with some instant downloads for you! It is filled with great products for back to school including book studies, craftivities, classroom prep, and content materials for back to school! There are 23 instant downloads… you have to check it out!

Here’s my product:

I think we all know that Reader’s Theater is a bit like my baby. Maybe. Okay, probably not, but it has been known to keep me up at night.

For real.

I love writing these partner plays and my kids love love love reading them. My most reluctant readers want to read these and get up in front of the class to “perform” with their friends.

I also had a couple of people come up to me at the Blog Meet Up to tell me stories about how they’re using them in their own classrooms.

Which, I will admit, was strange and weird and neat all at the same time, and there is absolutely no telling what I said in response to their stories. NO TELLING. I pretty much lost my voice that night so I think I might have talked too much . . .

Here is a little video of two of my students from last year performing I See a Spider from the Fall Reader’s Theater pack that is included in the Educents bundle. I do have permission from their parents to post this.

And PS, these girls would not start until my class said, “Lights, Cameras, Action!” because we are all very dramatic. Although this happens everysingleyear so I am thinking it might be me . . .

I love these two! Now I miss them.

Goshdarnit.

Okay! Sniff, sniffle, snort, I have a cold, I am not teary eyed. I am on summer vacation. I am fine.

For a limited time the entire bundle is $29.99 from Educents which is almost 75% off! Twenty-three products for your kinder and first grade classrooms and over 1200 pages of materials from some of your favorite teachers! How can you not love this bundle??

Go take a look at some of the other teachers featured in this bundle – what they have going on for back to school and what they are featuring in this deal too!

As for me, I am off to nap and catch up on some Reality TV . . . oh yeah, and I’m going to print this stuff!
