It’s a Grand Opening!

I haven’t quite kept up with my one post a month goal, but I’m close!  HAHA  I’ve been quite busy with work….and life.  It’s all good though.  How were your holidays?  How is the start to the new year going?  I have no complaints.  Just so much to do on all fronts.  I think most people are like that right now.  How about the price of eggs?  HA!  I do hope that you’re all doing well.

So one of the things that I’ve been working on is expanding into the other marketplaces.  I had started on it previously, but I’ve fully gotten into it.  I want you all to be able to find me on multiple places.  I know that some enjoy shopping in certain marketplaces and some enjoy others.  I still don’t have everything in the other marketplaces, but I’m making some good progress.  Along with me expanding, many other sellers are as well.  We decided to get together and do a Grand Opening Sale.  I’m really excited about this!

There’s so many special days coming up that you can hopefully find resources for.  Ash Wednesday is 22 February, which also makes it the first day of Lent.  Easter will be 9 April with Holy Week leading up to that.  There’s also Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Spring, and other important dates coming up.  I have materials for all these in my shops!

One of the places that I’ve expanded is to reopen my shop on Etsy.  I have very few resources listed there yet.  I’m just getting my feet wet again.  I’m really out of the loop there and trying to see what will or won’t do well.  I’m also working on getting more materials on Made by Teachers and Classful.  I’ve gone into other marketplaces, some are, but some aren’t part of this sale.  I’ll tell you about those another time.  Anyway, back to the Grand Opening Sale!

Let me give you the details.  The Grand Opening Sale will be 12-14 February.  Everything at The Treasured Schoolhouse will be 20% off.  Here’s where you can shop….

Made by Teachers:  20% off (with an extra 5% off 12-13 February from them)

Classful:  20% off with coupon code GRAND20 applied at checkout

Etsy:  20% off

Teacher Professional Development (TPD):  20% off with coupon code GRAND20

TES:  20% off

As you can see if you got to any of my storefronts, they each have a different number of materials in them.  I’m working on getting a little bit of everything up so that there’s a variety.  My true goal is to get everything on all of them!  HA!  As always, if you need anything, please don’t hesitate to ask.  I can get something uploaded to the marketplace of your choice, or if you have a request, I can see if I can create it for you in a timely manner.

Happy Shopping!

It’s Cyber Monday!

Cyber Monday Sale neon thumbnail

Hello all and Happy Holidays!

I hope that you had a very Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving.  Are you all gearing up for Christmas now?  Do you have your tree up yet?  This year, we’ve opted not to do a Christmas tree.  Our daughter is a wise one and said that it’s been stressful the past couple years and we should just find something simpler to do.  She’s an adult that loves Christmas as much as I do, but her words made sense.  We have a lighted ceramic tree (white) sitting on a little table that normally has to be put up at Christmas.  I put a tree skirt over the table and placed the tree in the center of it.  It’s actually really nice and comforting.  I still have my nativities everywhere!  I have so many different kinds and they’re all special to me.

Apostles and Saints

Hello all my wonderful readers!

I know, it’s been more than a month.  I have nothing to say other than, I’M SORRY!  I was doing alright and then life just happened.  I do apologize and I’m hoping that I can get back to posting at least once a month.

New and Updated

Hello all!

I just want to give you some updates about what’s been going on.  Since I posted that I was updating some of the FREEbie resources on the site, I’ve been busy scouring to find the original documents.  The first day, I was able to do quite a few and I posted those updates below the post.  

I’ve gone through the site and I’ve added “image not available” to many of the posts because I wasn’t able to easily find the original pictures or replace them with something similar.  I’m not done though, as I have other back-up drives that I can dig out.  It’s just going to be a timely process.  Obviously, I haven’t found all my original files either.

Just a reminder that some of the resources are no longer on the blog as I’ve removed them and added them to my store.  Not all of them, of course.  Hopefully when I’m done with this, you’ll still have a great choice of FREEbies.  

One thing that I want to do is try to find some balance with what I offer.  Right now, I tend to add whatever extra FREEbies that I have to the Resource Library that is just for my newsletter subscribers.  That said, there’s not even as many in there as I’d like there to be.  So that’s where my balance comes in….adding some to the site and some to the Library.

cover page "Communion Memory Match" with purple cross background and Eucharist

With all that said, I do come bearing gifts.  This is an old file that I found and the best that I could tell, I haven’t shared it anyplace (except maybe my old Y!Group).  I left the original date on it, but I did update it and make it “prettier” so that I could share it with you.  My, I’ve come a long way in creating resources!  HAHA  This FREEbie is a simple set of concentration or memory match cards for Communion.  It’s various images of the Body of Christ.  I hope that you can use and enjoy this little game.  Oh, did I mention that it has a storage box for the cards too?  If you’d like to download it, just….

I won’t always be able to post that I’ve updated something, so if you’re looking for something in particular just keep an eye on that post or leave a comment about what you’re needing.  You can also reach out to me on social media or e-mail.

Cyber Monday

Cyber Monday Sale neon thumbnail

Boy am I behind!  We had such a great Thanksgiving as a family.  It actually started before that because my parents were here last weekend and we celebrated Thanksgiving with them.  Then for the actual day, I made a smaller meal, but it was amazing.  We started decorating that house as well.  That’s one of my favorite things!  So here we are and it’s already Cyber Monday.

Our Father

Do you work with your kids on their prayers?  Learning and even memorizing prayers can be hard for children to do.

  

A few years ago, I had made a sequencing mat to put the Our Father in order.  This helps children learn the proper order of the prayer.  A reader asked me if I still had this available and sadly I had to tell her “no”.  Well that didn’t make me happy, so I went digging through a very old back-up drive and found it!  I was able to make a slight update to it and I’m able to share it with you all!

If you’re interested in this sequencing mat, Just click on the cover image above to download it.  I hope that this helps your kids and makes it fun for them to learn the Our Father.

Help Australia

Australia with kangaroo cartoon

Hello all and a very Happy 2020 to you all!  It has already been a busy new year for me….and I’m sure for many of you as well.  

I want to start by talking about the bushfires in Australia.  As you probably know, much of the land has been burned and many animals have been lost, not to mention the loss of life and homes.  I want to do something to help the people of Australia.

AusTeacherBFR sale banner for Australia charity

For the month of January, for my resources with #austeacherBFR, the sales will be donated to Australia.  The charity that I’ve chosen is Vinnies Bushfire Appeal.  You can read more about them if you click here.  I currently only have 2 resources as part of this fundraiser, but plan to add 1 more, if not 2 more.  Again, all sales with #austeacherBFR will be donated to charity.  If you’re not interested on those materials, I’d be happy to swap another resource that you do want to purchase and donate the sale from that.  You can also search that hashtag on TpT to find all the resources that other teachers have for sale and are using to donate to their chosen Australian charity.

Thank you for considering helping me support this charity to help the people of Australia!

I hope that you all have a wonderful new year and are blessed!

St. Nicholas and Advent

I can’t believe that it’s almost time for Advent already.  I’m starting to do my prep for my class and I like to do a simple activity with them to teach them the basic colors of Advent.

The Colors of Advent with St. Nicholas cover art

This year I decided to tie my introduction in with St. Nicholas.  It’s just as simple activity where they’ll each get a little card with the colors of each week and they have to color the card.  I’m giving this to all of you as a FREEbie in hopes that it’ll help introduce Advent into your setting as well.  Also included is a color version in case you just want to pass that out instead.  

sample pages of "The Colors of Advent with St. Nicholas"

The cards really are perfect for any age level or even to pass out in church as an introduction to Advent.  And who doesn’t love St. Nicholas?  I hope that you enjoy and are a help to you.  If you’re interested in these cards, just click to….
