Blog #2 - Learning!

Happy Wednesday!

Boy, my mind is whirling!   I have been a long-time purchaser of products from Teacher Pay Teachers - not a seller.  This summer, I was encouraged by a great friend to try and sell some of the things I create for my classroom.  I was very hesitant - but after looking at my very sad checking account and lack of savings account - I decided to take the plunge and give it a try.  

I had no idea there was sooo much to learn.   I have been working everyday of my summer break so far.  I love learning new skills - but to be honest it is exhausting!  
I have several items in my TpT store so I am feeling better about having some product available.  

Right now I am focusing on 4th Grade Math products.   Our district just adopted "My Math" and I am going through the book and making products as I get acquainted with the series. 

Today, I joined some collaborative seller forums through TpT and I am hoping to connect with other teachers.  

 It will be interesting to see where this new adventure is going to lead me...

Happy Teaching!

Freebie Friday..... for the first time..

Hi everyone! (do I hear crickets???)  I am just launching my new blog and I have a freebie to give away in celebration!  

Today's freebie will be some very bright and very cute owl themed Cooperative Learning Desk Mats!   I began using cooperative learning last year and my students loved it!   These are the exact mats I use in my classroom.  If you haven't tried cooperative learning head over to the Kagen site and check it out.   Here is a link: http://www.kaganonline.com/index.php

Do you use cooperative learning structures in your classroom?   Which ones do you do the most in your classroom?
