One thing for sure, when I create something, I'm always worried about giving teachers more than enough.' I want you to have choices but there is a fine line between 'a good amount' and 'way too much.' With that in mind, I thought it would be helpful for you to know that you can customize Digital Learning Games from Boom. That way if there are cards within the deck that are too difficult for your students, for instance, you can hide them. When You Have Too Much Of A Good Thing You're ... VIEW POST
Alphabet Mats and Activities
When I made Hands-on Alphabet Mats for my students a couple of years ago, I never in my wildest dreams imagined that I would need a virtual counterpart for students. But then came COVID and everything changed. Now, even though we are back face-to-face, I know that the resources I made available for virtual learning, are still a valuable classroom tool. So take a look at these Boom Learning™ Cards and how I use them in my classroom. Alphabet Mats Hands-on is the key in kindergarten. ... VIEW POST
Name Writing Activities
When you've survived the first week of face-to-face teaching during a pandemic, you move onto name practice during week two.

Hands-On Learning and Digital Freebie
How are you feeling about the fall? Personally, I want my students to be safe so I am all for anything I will need to do to make that happen. However, that doesn't mean I'm happy about social distancing or the amount of work it will take to make it happen.
