Back to business . . . I wanted to remind you that I am hosting my very FIRST linky party. It's called, "Rockin' Resources: Things I Couldn't Live Without." This linky highlights all of those wonderful things in your classroom that you live and die by. CLICK ON the linky party button below to check out the great items bloggy friends have shared thus far! I would love for you to join in the fun as well. The more the merrier my bloggy friends. Your ideas and classroom success stories are truly invaluable! A HUGE thank you to all of you who have joined the party thus far. It is oh-so scary puttin' yourself out their for the first time and I so appreciate the support :).
On that note, here's another one of my FAVORITE resources that I use daily...
LEXIA LEARNING
This computer program is the bomb-diggity of reading games. It is all standards-based and the kids love to play it. This game serves as one of my daily reading center rotations and it hits all of those key phonics, spelling, and basic reading concepts. Have your school check it out if you can. It is an invaluable resource at good old Evergreen. Click on the photo below to visit the Lexia Learning Web site. For more awesome classroom resources, please visit my linky party page.
Well . . . enough about my "party." It's time to spread the love a bit. I always enjoy my daily visits with my friend Teri over at A Cupcake for the Teacher and I saw that she was hosting a Top Teacher's Memorial Day SALEabration! I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to join in the fun. I may be a little late in the game, but everything in my TPT Store is 20% off through tomorrow! What can I say? I heart a killer sale :).
Last, but not least, I have an end of the year FREEBIE for you all who are still laboring away at school. Next week my kiddos will be writing notes to our classroom parent helpers during one of our reading center rotations. I made this template up for my teammates and my long-term sub and thought I would share. These notes will be attached to the parent helper gifts (sill up in the air) and will given out that very last week of school.

I am off to spend some time with my husband (it seems that I have forgotten that I even have a spouse this evening - whoops). I will see you all tomorrow with another "Rockin' Resource" and a giveaway opportunity.
One FINAL thing. If forgot to tell you last week. It's official . . . am teaching first again next year! And, the even better news is that my teaching bestie will be right there with me once again. Life is good! Night friends.
