Sizzlin' Summer Steals: ONE TIME ONLY Big Steal!


The winner of yesterday's $50 giveaway is...
DEBRA HELEN
Please email me! Thank you!

Today's steal is a BIG ONE!


This is the lowest price my 
Kindergarten Phonics Interactive Notebooks will ever be!

If you are hesitant about trying interactive notebooks in kindergarten, then these are the activities for you! In addition to the traditional cut and paste activities, I also offer JUST ONE CUT activities. I use both in my classroom, depending on the time I have each day. I like to vary which activities I use because the children really do love to lift flaps and put stuff in pockets.

Here are some images of the JUST ONE CUT ACTIVITIES.













For those of you who use Journeys, I am also offering my Sight Words and Phonics Bundle at a very low cost, as well. Now is a GREAT time to snag them!


This bundle includes all the phonics activities AND 
sight word activities for all 30 lessons.








What a bargain! Just a reminder, though, these low prices are JUST for June 29! And, until I wake up in the morning on June 30! LOL!

Interactive Notebooks: Your Questions Answered

I started using interactive notebooks in my kindergarten and first grade classroom two years ago. I had just returned to school after Spring Break and I wanted to spice things up for the remainder of the school year. During my break, I had created a few foldables and on the first day back, we just dove right in. It was a BIG game changer! 

I've received tons of great feedback about my grammar and phonics interactive notebook activities for first graders, and I'm going to share some of it with you, because I thought it would be a fun and beneficial way to answer all the questions you may have about interactive notebooks. I get asked a lot of questions about why I use them, how I use them, what do my students and their parents think of them, and how have my students benefited from them. I recently added more activities to my grammar and phonics bundle, so I'm going to intersperse some pictures throughout this post.

*Please note that some of the feedback written by the teachers may contain typos.
That is only because they were super excited to let me know their feelings!

Why should I use interactive notebooks in my classroom?






What are some of the ways you use these 
activities in your classroom?



How do your students feel about 
using interactive notebooks?




Can I use these activities if I use a reading series?

By the way, I have interactive notebook activities that are aligned to the 2014 Journeys reading series. These grammar and phonics activities are included, as well as, sight word and reading skills activities. You can find that here.

Can I use these activities if I homeschool?






Can students in other grades use these activities?


*I have interactive notebook activities for kindergartners, as well. I've received great feedback from teachers, and will write a similar post about them, soon!

If you are STILL on the fence after hearing from all these 
other teachers, here are a few last words of wisdom...
