A Little Look at 2012

Here's a little look at 2012 with the help of Christina at Bunting, Books, and Bainbridge.  Click on the link to visit her blog and link up too.

I'm not sure if this is the best of my blog from 2012, but it's what was looked at the most.  See each post and find freebies by clicking on the pictures.


#1: First Grade Common Core At-a-Glance
The Common Core can be hard to manage.  This document makes it a little bit easier to see what's expected of me.   



#2: Handwriting with Purple and Green
I teach handwriting with purple and green crayons.  It sounds crazy, but it actually works pretty well.  


#3: Table-Sized Anchor Charts
I was inspired to turn certain anchor charts into small versions for each table of kids. 


There are some blogs that I'd love to brag about too.  You'll see their links on the right side of my blog as you scroll down a bit.  Pay them a visit and you'll see why I love to brag about them.

I'd especially like to thank Lori from Conversations in Literacy who reads and comments on every single post I make.  She always has something encouraging to say about my thoughts.  In addition, she is the kind of teacher you'd want your own children to have, so you should definitely drop by and tell her I sent you.

Thank you so much for joining me this past year.  I'd love to see more of you in 2013!

    1. Hilary, thank you for coming by and commenting. I'm glad you like the charts. My cube holder thingys fall over too often, so you'll want to find something more stable. :)

  7. Hi Tammy,
    I thought I was reading all of your posts, but you posted a few things I don't remember, maybe it was before I found your blog. I'm going to have to go back and see what else I missed.

    1. Vicky, I like the charts too. Thanks for letting me know you like them as well. I'm not sure I have any good tips for enabling comments. I didn't know that could even present a problem for some!
