A-Z Teacher Me and Valentine's Day FREEBIE!

I'm linking up with The Polished Teacher for her A-Z Teacher Me linky party!  How fun!  Here we go...

A: App
Sock Puppets and Learn Cursive

B: Book Character-Really?  I have to choose?  I love Gooney Bird Greene, Junie B. and Arthur.  Oh, I could choose a million more....

C: Clip Art

Creative Clips Monsters
My new fav set!  I love Creative Clips for all my clip art needs!!

D: Dollar Spot Find- EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING! HAHA :)

Lately though, it was the 100th day stickers and bookmarks! What a bargain!

E: Essential To Start Day- Diet Coke.  I am obsessed.  

Although, I'm drinking much more water nowadays!

F: Font- CT Chunk Dot created byErin at Creating and Teaching.  It's just such a fun font.  I love it! :)

Check it out!

G: Game

Spelling Silent Ball and Math Jeopardy

I've talked about my love affair with Jeopardy before HAHA!  but I also love Spelling Silent ball.  Get it...SILENT is the key word!  They throw the ball around and have to spell a word, but if the talk, they are out!  O-U-T- out! :)    I used to love Sparkle but since I have 3 different spelling lists, this one works!

H: Holiday- Christmas. Hands Down!  There is just so much happiness in the air and so many fun things to do!

I: Ice Cream- Cookies and Cream!   Yum!  I am a huge ice cream junkie.  It is my absolute weakness.  I love going to Cold Stone and Dairy Queen in the summer.

J: Jewelry Piece- My Godmother made me a necklace with some of the diamonds from my grandma's wedding ring.  It's the best and means the world to me!

K: Kid-ism- When we were taking about Martin Luther King Jr. we were comparing ourselves to him. 
Me:  How are you similar to MLK?
Student:  Well, we kind of have the same nose.
HAHAHA!  I guess he didn't understand what I meant exactly, but points for effort... :)

L: Location To Travel- Disneyworld!  :)  LOVE.

M: Management Technique- I love having the students use number signals for drink ,washroom, sharpen pencils.  It really saves my sanity! :)

N: Nail Polish

Margarita OPI (I think it's Margarita something...)
I'm not Just a Waitress by OPI

O: Open House Idea
We only have one open house right in the beginning of the year.  But, I love to give the students a check-list on their desk.  They can go around showing their parents and "entourage" all the different aspects of our classroom and tell them about the first week of school as they do it!

P: Pinterest Find

What a great and simple idea! LOVE!

Here is the source.
