I {heart} the Dollar Tree!

April 24, 2013 misskindergarten 29 Comments

I love the Dollar Tree! They always have the cutest stuff at the *greatest* price! You didn’t even know you needed it until you saw it was only one dollar 😉
Last weekend I went to the dollar tree and found these adorable cut out coordinates!
How cute right!? And $3 later…three instant centers!
First I laminated them, for two reasons. One, to give them a longer life span 😉 and two, because I have *commitment issues*


 I definitely knew I wanted to use them to make center activities, but I didn’t know exactly how I wanted to use them. And what if thought of a cute center, and then something better came to mind *after* I already made and laminated them!? {see…commitment issues…} So the only possible solution was for me to laminate them before I wrote on them with my permanent marker. That way, I could change them if I needed 😉
Matching opposites
Sorting digraphs
I decided to use the paint can and brushes for number practice.
 But if I wanted to use them for math practice instead, all I would have to do is write over the permanent marker with a dry erase marker…
 and viola! All is well in the world again 😉

What would you use them for??

This is the absolute coolest center idea from @mis This is the absolute coolest center idea from @missingtoothgrins! Build the word with magnet letters and the word shows up when you take the letters away! I think my favorite part is that her 3 year old thought of this idea 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 #kidsaresosmart #saturdayteachershare

I’m working really hard to learn as much as I ca I’m working really hard to learn as much as I can about discrimination and racism and how to help teach my own daughters and my students how to continue making a change and moving in the right direction. I’m still learning. I make mistakes, and I learn more and more every single day. @misselgendy shared this post from @halpey1 and it really resonated with me. I thought it showed a great way to get your students involved in how they can help, not just on MLK day, or during Black History Month, but every day. Sometimes as a teacher and as an “influencer”, I feel pressured to do and say things that I’m not 100% confident with, but I’m learning. Just like I tell my students, continue to learn and continue to try your best. ❤️❤️❤️
