What Happened to the Turkeys?

What?  It's turkey time.... so why the frog?

Some of my fantastic followers asked me to do a "generic" beginning/ending sound literacy station.  In this station the children take a mat, then place a picture in the middle of the mat...where the cute frog is. Isn't it adorable? You can use your own foam letters or use the ones I made for you to place on the mat.  The beginning sound goes to the left of the frog and the ending sound to the right.  Bonus:  3 different recording sheets!  I think you will be able to use this station for awhile! :)

Surprises! Freebie! Excitement!

  I am so excited!  I have so much to share with you today.  Where should I start?  First, 3 great blogging friends gave me this award!  Wow!

   Thank you Barbi, Kerri and Laura!  You can see their awesome blogs here!  I love these bloggers .. and they always have great things to share!

Then came the double Pow  ---- Wow!  

I have asked to be an author for the #1 blog for teachers...

Me?  I have been doing a happy dance.... I am sure my neighbors think I have lost it!   I am so honored to be recognized by all of these great bloggers!

Now for my super friends that come to my little blog everyday and leave me all the great comments about the things I share.  This is my first attempt at this...  Write the Room.  I love integrating math and literacy.  So, my little ones will have to find the picture, count the tens frame and then write the number word as they fill in the sentence on their recording page. 

What do you think of my Write the Room activity?  I am hoping you guys help me with this to make sure I am on the right track!  Just click here to download.
