I had a blast today presenting for great teachers from East Tennessee. They were all so eager to find resources to help their students. Thank you if you came to my sessions. I loved having you all there.
Today I’m joining Teaching Blog Addict for Freebie Friday. I’ve created a set of Figurative Language Posters in zebra theme! You can grab a copy by clicking the picture.
Okay, I am pretty sure I need zebra intervention. I found the cutest set of zebra themed clip art and backgrounds at Sweet Shoppe Designs. The whole set was on sale, so I couldn’t help myself. I’ve created the pages for my teacher binder. There are twelve different covers total. I may create more later if I need them or if someone else needs them.
Hand signals in the classroom have been floating around the Internet for years. I especially like Clutter Free Classroom’s and Littlest Learner’s hand signal signs. I changed them to fit my classroom and our needs. Students hold their hand up with a certain number of fingers to indicate what they need.
When I first started teaching I bought items in a array of colors. After three years in a rainbow room I decided I wanted a color scheme. So I have spray painted, and spray painted, and spray painted. I found this awesome spray paint tool. It is a comfort spray grip that I picked at Wal-mart for like three dollars. It saves your finger, you’ll have less paint on your hands, and it sprays better.
I’ve also been using the zebra print duct tape and I love it! I found some awesome pointers at the dollars store a few years ago, but now they aren’t so pretty. See below!
