I used to drink coffee, and the lids were gold.

I used foam beads and pipe cleaners.

March Morning Bins week 2

Pokey jumbo pins 

I have zero knowledge of where I got these from.

 

I made the cards.

I made a spreadsheet with a single column, 

then shaded one in.

I did old school and cut things out to make this paper.

We write and illustrate 4/5 words from our writing center.

Polar Animals Study

 We started off the year by traveling to the Arctic.

We read a letter introducing the whole unit. Then each day we met new animals. 

I added some winter-themed pencils and blue markers to our writing tool turn-about.

Here are some of the books we used:

We made icicles in our journals.

We have to at least make as many as we are old.

This was one of my transitions. They spun the paperclip and put some "ice" on that animal.

The "ice" are glass beads- blue, clear, and frosted.

The tray came from Dollar Tree.

All of our centers are stored here.

I share my classroom, so everything is stored here.

I cover it with a pocket chart after my class is done.

The large empty space on top is for our stews, 

which I put up high on a shelf. 

Penguin roll

Penguins are from Dollar Tree

penguin mini erasers from the KinderCrate.

Kids roll the number cube and add that many penguins to the penguins.

Pokey pins are From the Pond.

I make my students lay on their bellies to poke these.

Random blocks and animals from Target.

Roll and Build

The matching play dough cards are underneath the key card.

Winter magnet tiles

Penguins

I thought they would be hard like those counting bears,

but these are more pliable.

This game.... the pieces are good...when not used together lol

It is supposed to balance, it is more frustrating than anything.

Watch the video.

Week 2 I added this one :)
