I can't believe it's been 4 years since I last posted on this blog! So much has changed, including the name of this blog, my TPT store, everything! I've changed schools twice and moved up to first grade. I started and finished my journey to become a National Board Certified teacher, and I've become a grandma-twice! I'm currently working to use all that I've learned to create new contact. I hope you can follow my journey. Please check out my improved TPT store and new social media platforms!

A while back I blogged about how I create my own alphabet line in my classroom. I wanted to easily explain the process to some new teachers at my school, so I went back and revisited the post. This is a great way for students to have ownership of the classroom, and in my opinion, student drawn alphabets are always better than anything I could make with clip art or purchase at a teacher store. Here are my directions! I hope you can find it useful! Create Your Own Alphabet Introduce a new letter each day, in the order of your choice or your school's program (I prefer McCracken’s). How you introduce the letter is really up to you. I usually start with an alphabet song, have students say the letter and the sound and show them how to write the letter. Each day create a circle map for the letter. The students brainstorm words that begin with that letter and the teacher draws the pictures and writes the words on the circle map. Sometimes I ask students...
THANK YOU!! Hopefully, many great January ideas can be collected through the link party.
