Teacher Week: WHEN

So a few years ago, Sarah Cooley shared this adorable visual schedule. I made one immediately! And I have used it ever since. I place one in each communication binder and one by the door for admin. As you can see, the fonts are older and so is the clipart for the most part. But I still think it's adorable! and useful for parents!

So here's my basic daily schedule:

I also wanted to share my very basic year plan. While you're reading this, my team is working on the details. This is just when we teach these units! and of course, this doesn't include all the holiday themed units either...

I start with fix up comprehension strategies from the CAFE book: look right, sound right. back up and reread. etc. If students need reading strategies, we do this is guided reading. 

I also am required to use Math Expressions for math, which is why you really won't find too much math in my shop! I use a few units to add a break from monotony and I have a few things I make that aren't "store ready" yet, but we do follow that program!

All of my science units are what I use to supplement the kits we receive. If you use FOSS kits, you will find my units fit nicely!

Here are a few units I use:

Supplemental adding and subtraction units from Amy Lemons

Supplemental time and measurement units from Amy Lemons

Supplemental money and place value units from Amy Lemons

(do you see a trend here...)

Inferencing unit

connections unit from Teacher's Clubhouse

And I put my store on an extra sale an extra day in case you want to scoop up any of these units (and so did Teacher's Clubhouse!)
