Call the C.O.P.S.

Back again for the 2nd time this week!!! 

I feel like dancing!

 

I hope you all were able to grab my freebie yesterday. If not....go grab it! And while you are o n my TPT page, be sure to grab some of the other freebies I posted over the last few days.

I've been creating stuff for a few weeks, but haven't had time to post so I'll be adding a lot this weekend (fingers crossed!).

 

 

I also uploaded an awesome Mega Pack that I created for my class this year.

In first grade, we really work hard to improve student writing and editing skills.

So of course we practice "Calling the C.O.P.S."

It is a huge hit in first grade (as well as when I taught K  & 2!).

 

You can check out the Mega Pack at my TPT store:

 

 

 

When I say Mega Pack....I mean it!

Take a look at what's included:

 

 Directions
C.O.P.S. Classroom Poster
C.O.P.S. Individual Classroom Posters
C.O.P.S. Mini Posters (2 sizes)
Letter to Parents
Practice Sheets featuring 2 review pages for each of the following categories:

           Capitals only
           Organization
           Spelling only
          Punctuation only
          Capitals & Punctuation
          Capitals & Organization
          Capitals & Spelling
         Organization & Punctuation
        Organization & Spelling
        Punctuation & Spelling
        Various Mistakes

 

I included a number of variations for the practice sheets for logistical reasons. This helps differentiate when students have difficulties in certain areas. It also helps when you are introducing each specific component. I know that as teachers, we don't introduce capitalization, organization, punctuation, AND spelling all on day one. Having a variety of sheets provides for flexibility as you introduce each component based on your curriculum.

 

I hope everyone has a great Memorial Day Weekend! Stop by next week as I have another project to post AND a little DIY project!

Where the H-E-Double Hockey Sticks Have You Been?!

Hi everyone!!! I know it has been FOREVER since I posted on this blog. This last semester was beyond crazy. In addition to teaching, I took 2 graduate classes, PLUS I signed up for a  class at the gym run by personal trainers that is 3 times a week. Needless to say...my head has been spinning!

 

And guess what...it's not looking better any time soon! HAHA

This summer instead of my usual vacation plans, I'm taking 3 summer classes, helping with the curriculum and continuing with the gym. Somewhere in there, I'm hoping for a few minutes of relaxation!

 

But don't worry, I do have a few projects, crafts, and packets that are int eh works to share with you. I will try to post at least twice a week. I've really missed chatting with all of you and I look forward to getting back in the swing of things!

 

Until then I wanted to share this with you all:

 

 

Summer Sight Words Freebie

 

I put this up at the end of last year and wanted to share it again in case anyone didn't grab it. If you pick it up, let me know what you think!

 

Thanks for all your support.

I'll be back soon.....I promise!
