International Teaching!

Sorry that the posts were few and far between, but my hubby and I have gone international!  We are going to be leaving for Korea in 8 days to teach at an international school in Suwon!  I will actually be using my masters degree and will be a school counselor.  I will still create things for TPT once we get settled in.

Easy Grade Time Tests: Addition and Subtraction

I am planning a post explaining how I manage my time tests in a quick and efficient way.  I hope to get it up by tomorrow!

Part of what helps me keep this stress free are two products that I created.  Easy Grade Time Tests!!

The great thing about this is that it takes me less than 3 minutes to grade each students time test. Look below for a sample of how you grade these babies. You can pick them up at my TpT store or click on the pic :)

Number Posters

As apart of my calendar time I review counting with my kinders (and who doesn't?!)  I point to each number and on my number posters and count the dots showing the 1 to 1 correspondence kinders need to practice. I have the numbers 0-10 created. You can pick these babies up at my TpT store!

Calendar Color Shape Posters

I have been teaching kindergarten for almost 10 years now! When I started student teaching, calendar time was the first aspect of teaching I took over.  It gives the students a great sense of routine in the day.

I have added to my calendar through the years and have adapted it to fit all 3 grade levels I now teach.  Before I taught only math, I used my calendar time to open math time and provide a focus for math.  Each day my kinders and I go over colors, shapes, and numbers during our calendar time.  Here is what my current calendar wall looks like:


As a freebie I am offering my color/shape posters as a freebie.  You can grab it over at my TpT store
