New Year….New Printables

2013

Well, now that 2013 is here and the hustle and bustle of the holidays is over, I’ll be getting back to creating some new printables!!  I had big plans for Christmas freebies for all of you, but I just couldn’t complete anything other than my 2 Elf on the Shelf items.  Family is so important to me and we really did have a great holiday season.  I know that I didn’t have much for you all and that my blog took a little hit without things being posted, but it was worth it to me in so many ways!! 

This weekend, I have several things going on, so it’ll be next week when I start creating and posting free materials again.  Also, next week I go back to teaching my religion class as Christmas Break will be over.  That means that I’ll be back to posting my weekly Bible Alphabet page.

Thanks for sticking by me and The Schoolhouse little blog!!

Happy New Year!!

Blessed-New-YearI can’t believe that it’s already 2013.  Time sure is flying!!  I don’t like that it’s going by so fast, but I’m ready to see what’s ahead.

I want to thank each of my readers and those that follow along with The Schoolhouse.  I wish each of you a very Happy and Blessed New Year!!

Bible ABC’s

This week, there won’t be a new page of the Bible Alphabet.  My class will be having their Christmas party tonight, so I won’t be doing an ABC page for class warm-up.  We’re also on Christmas Break for 2 weeks, so there won’t be a new page posted during that time.  Please check back after the first of the year when I’ll resume with new pages!!

Patriotic Calendar and Desk Sets

It’s almost time to go “back to school”, so this week, I’ll be creating and sharing things to use in the classroom (or at home) as we all head back in that direction.  Most will be calendar sets in a variety of color themes, but if time permits, I’ll also be making some other materials.

I call this first set patriotic because I used a red, white, and blue background.  It’s a great background with all the patriotic colors in a fun swirl.

The calendar set includes dates 1-31 with extras like “no school”, “birthday”, and a couple of others.  There’s also a set of numerals for 32-100 for those that use your calendars as a 100’s chart.  There’s also all 12 months of the year, as well as years from 2012 to 2017, so you can use this set for years to come!!  Finally, there’s a set of days to use on their own or use with the yesterday was, today is, and tomorrow will be cards.

In the desk set is a set of cubbie tags and desk plates.  Both include a blank for you to use as needed.  There’s also a 1-100 counting chart.  I also made a set of “home tags” which list several methods that the children go home.  These can be attached to the desk, used as a neck tag, or attached to the backpack.  Had my daughters teacher used these in 1st grade, I wouldn’t have had to be panicked when my daughter didn’t get off the bus!!  Finally, there’s some incentive sheets.  These are larger in size and can be used for behavior, reading, returning homework, or a number of other things.

Here’s a thumbnail view of what the calendar set looks like….

Grover

Today I have some Grover printables to share.  He’s always been one of my favorite Sesame Street characters.  I think he’s so funny and cute!!

First, there’s a set of 4-piece basic puzzles.  The puzzles are perfect for little hands and developing their skills.  There’s also a set of “Label the Color” cards.  The color of Grover’s faces is labeled with the correct color tag.

V.B.S. – More of Amazing Wonders Aviation

I’m back with some more AWA themed printables for VBS.  First though, I’d like to say THANK YOU for all the wonderful comments.  You’ve truly made me feel wonderful and you’ve reminded me why I spend so much time creating these for the kids.  It warms me to know that they will be used and hopefully enjoyed by the kids.

Now onto the new VBS printables!!  First up is a set of memory verse cards.  They can be used a number of ways.  One could line them up to complete the memory verse, or 2 copies could be printed and they could be used for concentration.  There’s also a number of other things that can be done with them.  The verse is from the NIV version of the Bible.

Next, I made a blank file folder game (ffg) that I called “The Race”.  This can be used for fun or to teach/review a skill.  All you need is die/spinner and player tokens.  I’ve provided the rest!!  There is a blank spot for you to fill in the directions for how you want the game played.  There’s also a set of cards that are blank for you to write in the skill or they don’t need to be used.  I also made an optional back for the cards too.

Last up is a shadow match game.  This one is more for fun or a time filler.  The airplanes and logos are matched to shadows on the map (game board).

Here’s a thumbnail view of some of the parts to these Amazing Wonders Aviation printables for VBS….

Happy Birthday, Donald!!

I’m a couple days late, 3 days in fact, but I wanted to wish Donald Duck a (BELATED) HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!  It also gives me the chance to offer you some freebies printables!!

There’s several printables in this set that include “Donald Duck Expressions Memory”, which is a set of cards and storage box.  I just made some “Donald Duck:  Sports Fan Alphabet Tracing Strips” as well.

Clifford Calendar Set

I know it’s been forever since I posted.  Life is just busy and I have a lack of creative ideas right now.  I’m hoping with summer here that there will be a new flow of ideas that I can get hot on!!

One of the ladies in my group requested some Clifford – The Big Red Dog items.  One of the things that she wanted was a calendar set.  That’s what I’m sharing with you today!!  You’ll find calendar numbers with some extras, years to 2017, and all the months.  Also, there’s a set of “yesterday”, “today”, and “tomorrow” cards where the days fit in the blank space.

Circus Train Ordinals

I had big plans for more freebies through the weekend, but I only got one thing created.  That’s alright though, because I celebrated Mother’s Day with my family and did nothing except enjoy my day!!  I did manage to get one item made, and I’m really happy with it.

This is a set of strip cards to place on a ring so the kids can flip through them.  They cover the ordinals of first through twelfth.  The ordinal numeral with the circus act is matched to the ordinal word on the circus train car.

I recommend printing on card stock and then laminating for extra durability.  Also, since they’re ring cards, you want want to attach a small piece of velcro to each train car and the backs of the circus acts.  That way, they won’t fall off if you use them as ring cards and not just cards to lay flat on the table top.

Clouds

I’m currently on Spring Break with my daughter and enjoying a little down time.  My promise to her was that I wouldn’t be online during this time so that we can do whatever we want on a whim and just have a real break!!

I did want to be able to share this week though, so I’ve scheduled a couple blog posts so that you all can download some goodies while I’m off having a good time!!  That said, I had a huge issue trying to upload my files to 4Shared, so if you go to download them, they may….or may not be there.  If they’re not, please leave me a comment and when I’m online at the end of Spring Break, I’ll see if I can fix any of the errors.

Today, I have a couple printables for clouds. The first is Layers of Clouds and it’s a mat to place images of the clouds in the appropriate altitude.  They are also labeled whether or not the cloud type has precipitation in them.  There’s also Types of Clouds Label Cards.  These cards have images of clouds and they have to be labeled with their correct cloud type.

I made these for my daughter, thinking that even through they’re somewhat simple for her age, she’d need to repeat the cloud types and layers over and over to get them down.  Her science book really focused on that this year.  I’m happy to say that she breezed right through and didn’t even need them, but I’m hoping that all of you can still benefit from them!!

Seuss-icle Day 8: A Variety of Suess

Today is the FINAL day of my “Seuss-icle Followers Contest” and there’s ONLY 5 HOURS left to enter!!  I want to remind anyone (current or new) who follows my blog and/or Facebook to leave a comment on this post, so that you can be entered into the contest for a $10 gift certificate to Teachers Pay Teachers (TPT).  Also, please read it through so you can find other ways to enter and have your friends and family enter too.  But hurry, there’s only 15 days left, as the winner will be announced at 8pm (CST)!!  Just click here to read and learn more.

ContestEnd-EnjoyFreebies byElaineOnce again, I have 3 freebies today and they’re all for a variety of Dr. Seuss.  First off is Dr. Seuss Concentration.  This is a huge set of cards to play memory match with and also includes the storage box.

Next up, I created a file folder game (ffg) based on CandyLand and I call it Seuss Land.  This one is for little ones and is played just like the previous named game.  It includes all the movement cards and a very colorful game board.  The only thing you need to provide is the player tokens and the kids will have fun moving between all the Seuss characters in Seuss Land!!

Finally, there’s something for all the adults that have been visiting me this week.  I created a set of 4 Seuss based checkbook covers.  They fit in any clear plastic sleeve to hold checkbooks.  They’re all fun and cute, but with an adult flair that will surely get a comment when you pull it out of your purse!!
