Can you believe how fast the weekends go? I know they are way too speedy quick for this first grade girl! Especially since I spent my entire Saturday doing this:
MISSION ORGANIZATION
Every drawer, closet, and cupboard are now organized and cleaned out!! It took me 12 hours and I’m sure with 3 boys in the house it will stay cleaned and organized for about 12 seconds.
In Sunday tradition here are my plans:
Anything in color in the plans is linked. I wish I could share some of the cute things I made for my winter animal unit but I used DJ Inkers graphics and don’t have their license, so until I purchase more graphics and rework them, I can’t share. Â SO sad!
I do want to share a few things were doing next week and I’ll post pictures soon.
The math and word work center I made are from this pack:
My sight word center will be this:
My poetry center:
Poem was found here:
Book Center
(I’ll try to purchase more commercial graphics so I can share this)
My Listening Center comes from here:
This week for Reader’s Workshop we are working on making connections. Â I have various text-self connections sheets in the pack below that I’ll be using. They are of varying complexity so I can differentiate.
I also have three cutie pies that need some extra basic writing practice and they will be using my sweet friend Deedee’s Read, Trace Draw activities. Â They love them!
Oh! And I finally finished my Morning Menu for February and March. Â And PTL it finally uploaded!
Have a great Sunday night and Happy Monday! I’ll be back soon.
Until then I leave you with this:
My cute boyfriend from one of my favorite shows, Revenge.
Just a little eye candy to get you through this week.

I am so happy to see bloggers posting their plans. I work in a small school and I love my partner but it is very helpful to see other teachers plans. Thank you!
Love me some Daniel Grayson! Definitely eyecandy! Tonight's episode was a good one!

Love the organization pictures; I was just looking at some youtube organization videos this weekend! Also, your school dismisses at 2:35? I'm jealous – we dismiss at 4 (but it's a charter school). Most schools in TX dismiss at 3 though. 2:35 would be amazing because of having some time to get work done after the kids leave!

I do love getting out early. Teachers can leave at 3:20 but I also wake up at 4:30 to get everyone where they need to be so I can be at school at 7.
Thank you for sharing your plans! I can tell you worked super hard organizing! I love the CORD basket! I have a drawer that is full of camera usb things and ipad/iphone chargers!
Keep on with the making connections! These third graders you've passed on are awesome connection makers! 😉
Is it seriously only Monday??
We are connection making fools! Hopefully they are comprehending something by third grade. And yes…Monday..BLAH!!!!
Will you please come organize my house? With our kitchen remodel going on right now, we are living in complete chaos. It's killing me!!!!

Jodi…My house will stay organized for about a day and half. Then it will be chaos again.
What do you use for writer's workshop? It says units…..
Desperately looking for a good writing program that matches common core for first grade.
Wondering what you use for writer's workshop…..it says unit 6….
Desperately looking for a writing program for common core first grade.
Thanks!
We use Lucy Calkins' units of study. She is coming out with Common Core units next spring. I think 6 Traits is also good for the core.
My boyfriend from Revenge is Jack, so I'm glad to know we won't be fighting over men. LOL. 😉
Good Morning Michelle, Thank-you for sharing your weekly plans (daybook). I find them so helpful when I am planning and often ( 🙂 ) use your suggestions. I am just wondering, do you have an editable plan that you might share? Right now, mine are, well, ugly. I am not a tech wiz so mine are just in a plain document. I would love to jazz them up. Thanks again, Marsha……[email protected]
