Phonemic awareness is one of the most important components of beginning reading, and I still have some little ones who are struggling to hear the sounds. 👂🏾 Sometimes we can be so busy giving our students all of the phonics drills and routines that we can, and we (or let's face it, the higher ups), forget that if they don't have the phonemic awareness to back it up, they will never be able to put the sounds together to read a word. 👂🏾 The Phonics Diner includes tons of routines to boost the phonemic awareness of your little friends! http://bit.ly/2Qp4cYN #thephonicsdiner #literacy #earlyliteracymatters #phonemicawareness

Reviewing 3-D shapes are the perfect activity for morning tubs! I'm hoping that the sickness leaves our school, but I'll be spraying down our classroom before everyone arrives tomorrow. 😜 #morningtubs #morningwork http://bit.ly/2HerT2z

It's so easy to get caught up in what didn't go so well this week (TONS), or think about everything that you didn't finish. ❤️ Don't drag it to the weekend with you, let it go! Take care of yourself today! #letitgo #selfcare #weekendvibes #quotes #teacherweekend

All of the stories about Bear and his friends make me happy! Since we covered Dental Health Month in kindergarten, I just choose a read-aloud to touch on it in first grade. Bear's Loose Tooth fits the bill! Bear and his friends are up to their usual antics in this story, and it won't disappoint! http://bit.ly/2SA45h5 #dentalhealthmonth #literacy #readaloud

When I tell you small group is my jam! 😍 It’s my favorite part of the day! It makes me so happy that my kiddos love it as well. They are so excited each time they get a new book! Of course, finger lights make me the best teacher in the world! You can find this awesomeness that is guided reading over @mrsrichardsonsclass! #smallgroupismyjam #guidedreading #balancedliteracy #reading #literacy #teachers

I believe that this is the first time that we've ever had to come to school on President's Day! Thanks to this construction calendar we've had to deal with. The only upside is that we get a longer summer! During our math routines we practiced subitizing, but this time they had to give me an addition problem for the answer they saw on the screen. Building number sense is a constant activity! It's something that I make sure we touch on daily! http://bit.ly/2Hwhro1 #numbersense #subitize
