For the Love of First Grade: December 2014
http://fortheloveoffirst.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
December 3, 2014. Elf Antics and Ideas for your Elf. Do you have an elf who comes to your classroom? Of course you do! Here are some of the antics our mischievous classroom elf was up to last year. He decided to get stuck in our "stuck on a word strategies" wall and literally needed help! After spending the day stuck, he was awfully tired and napped all day long. Look who found our Band-aid stash! He loves to read too! Showing his Polar Express enthusiasm! Trying to make us laugh at our class picture!

Elementary Matters: A Weekend in the City
http://www.elementarymatters.com/2014/11/a-weekend-in-city.html
Tuesday, November 18, 2014. A Weekend in the City. A few weeks ago I went way outside my comfort zone: I took a trip ALONE to New York City! It was an opportunity to see loads of other teacher/ bloggers from all over. Some of them I met when I was in Vegas, some I'd never met face to face, but I knew them through their blogs or their TpT stores, and through some of the teacher facebook pages I follow. We'd been planning this trip since we got back from Vegas! Here's a review of a the show I saw:. We had ...

http://www.elementarymatters.com/2012/08/standards-for-mathematical-practice-101.html
Wednesday, August 8, 2012. Standards for Mathematical Practice 101. Today I had my third of three days looking over the district's materials and seeing how they aligned with the Common Core State Standards. It was most definitely another worthwhile day! Today's focus was math. The CCSS. In Math has two parts. There's the Standards for Mathematical Practice. And the Standards for Mathematical Content. The Standards for Mathematical Practice. Here are the Standards for Mathematical Practice. This is anothe...

Elementary Matters: Another Vacation Week Gone Already?
http://www.elementarymatters.com/2015/07/another-vacation-week-gone-already.html
Friday, July 3, 2015. Another Vacation Week Gone Already? How can more than 2 weeks of vacation be already gone? It seems like all I've done is sleep, but I guess I've done a few things. Here are 5 of them:. My daughter went back to her old dance studio and danced in their recital! The studio was celebrating their 25th anniversary, and invited alumni to come back and dance. They learned the dance from a video online, came back and danced it! Lots of good memories! She treated me and advised me, and I'm s...

Elementary Matters: Viva Las Vegas! Part 1
http://www.elementarymatters.com/2013/07/viva-las-vegas-part-1.html
Sunday, July 21, 2013. Last week, I went on the very best trip! I went to Las Vegas to meet up with my teacher/ blogger friends! Many of my blogger friends have been talking about it for months now. There was an I Teach K. Convention out there for Kindergarten teachers, and many were already going out there for the convention, so the meet up was a natural conclusion! I'd never been to Vegas, and I was going to meet people I'd never met before. The buffet was great, but the company was even better! Debbie...

http://learningwithmrslangley.blogspot.com/2016_09_01_archive.html
Learning with Mrs.Langley. What Are You Teaching: September 26. I know no one is hanging on the edge of their seats waiting for my weekly post and I do these mostly for my own planning purposes but it's good to be back! I took last weekend off after a long week of Parent/Teacher conferences. I LOVE meeting with all of my families but 44 conferences is a lot and it was a pretty exhausting week. We celebrated by going to the baseball game and enjoying some nachos (my favorite at the ballpark). Unit The dab...

Learning with Mrs.Langley: January 2016
http://learningwithmrslangley.blogspot.com/2016_01_01_archive.html
Learning with Mrs.Langley. It's time for February Parent/Teacher conferences! Why so excited you ask? In kindergarten our February conferences are a time for celebration. This is the time of year that parents start reporting all the great things that are happening with their kiddos! They are reading everything! They are so excited about reading! I can't believe how much they have grown! I have 45 kiddos this year (2 sessions) so that's a lot of conferences to schedule. Conference Report with DIBELS goals.

Learning with Mrs.Langley. What Are You Teaching? LONG weekends are just what I need to catch up and feel human again! November has been a strange month indeed with all of the extra days off and messed up schedules. I am ready to get back at it with 3 "normal" weeks before we break for Christmas. I have a whole day to spend in my classroom tomorrow to make it happen! It is a full schedule for sure! Here is a quick break down. Unit 3 Week 4. Our story for the week is Farfallina and Marcel,. This week we a...

Learning with Mrs.Langley: February 2016
http://learningwithmrslangley.blogspot.com/2016_02_01_archive.html
Learning with Mrs.Langley. What I'm Teaching in a Half-Day Program. Do you teach half day Kindergarten? It is a constant juggling act to get it all in, keep students engaged (without being overworked), and keep things moving because the end of the day comes quickly! I have my students for 2 hours and 45 minutes each day and I try my best to jam pack it full of learning and fun along the way. Here is a look at what I'm teaching this week in a half-day program. We start every day with MORNING WORK. After o...

Learning with Mrs.Langley: Number Stamping FREEBIE!
http://learningwithmrslangley.blogspot.com/2017/01/number-stamping-freebie.html
Learning with Mrs.Langley. I promised I would use the number stamping book I made this week and I did! Here it is just so you know what I'm talking about! The book was pretty simple to put together and I mixed up the pages on purpose so it wouldn't be in order. I just copied them back to back and folder/stapled them. Our copy machine will actually do that for you.but I still haven't figured that out! Some of them were really organized and careful and some of them were a hot mess! So much drama :). I hope...
