I have to be honest, this is one of the things I miss most about teaching 1st grade. I do have a plan to make a Holidays Around the World for upper-grades this year, but it won't be ready until next year because I am testing it out with my class this year. So, if you teach 4-6th grade....be on the lookout in 2023. :)</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYANknzA4F_Si9X_4LNo6D2E_JRcqnBXRbhiciSOMmBxUXPosOoMOgEL4U38XFFQcFpZgw9Vjn4cSsG2LqMNJXJ6MBc9KsGULBBLQtzuwiwYvUiJTmoqUArHO94Ue51mA-hF9Mt5kOYhPUT0ZvTeyk0BK0B4R-2twl5Zaa4GzrwkV8-RIq6TP9LAm2/s1051/HATW%20Plan%202020.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

There are 20 countries included and 4 slides per country (1 slide with the country's flag and 3 slides with information). </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Holidays-Around-the-World-Informational-Slides-4215080"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="873" height="640" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-R_zfO9A75aw/W_ohRCv3F2I/AAAAAAAAK0w/jd2kmyHd48M5ALcPXQ5APAORnJIyQDhcQCLcBGAs/s640/HATW%2Binformational%2Bslide.png" width="348" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">If you buy <a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Holidays-Around-the-World-Part-1-2-and-3-BUNDLE-4216560">Holidays Around the World Bundle (1, 2, 3)</a> you get the <a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Holidays-Around-the-World-Informational-Slides-4215080">informational slides</a> FOR FREE as a bonus!

I'd love to do a series this summer where I highlight a few of these apps and websites and how I use them in my classroom! That is wishful thinking. I'll first share with you this download and you can explore these websites/apps on your own and hopefully I'll be back to show you how you can implement in your classroom and/or into your distance learning.<br />

Each pack comes with over <b><u>50</u></b> games, activities, graphic organizers, and teaching tools. There are games and activities for comprehension, vocabulary, fluency and phonics.</div>

I use this pack with my highest readers and it's helped me teach skills to them that I would not have even thought to teach (#firstgradeteacherforlife). The games that help reinforce the skills are fun, effective and the students love them! </div>

I've got some math tubs ready for next week so that I can pull my guided math groups. Also so I can keep my sanity before a very late spring break. We just finished with our time to the hour and half-hour unit and I want to meet with some groups to re-teach and enrich. I also want to throw some review of ALL THE THINGS because, spiral review. ;)</div>

<span style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">You play music and the kiddos dance around the classroom, when the music stops, they find a different desk and write any time {whatever time you are working on} they want {digital}. Then, I start the music again {they dance} and when the music stops, they find a different seat and draw the analog clock time to match the digital time. I check them off, they erase their boards, and we play again. :)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">The mats are laminated and we use dry-erase markers on them.</span></span></div>

They spin the spinner and make that time on their analog {Judy clock} clock. If you don't have a set of Judy Clocks, you can use the DIY cardstock clock that I provide in the packet.<br />

Here is a game for teaching/practicing time! I have left the clocks blank so that all grade levels can insert the times that they are working on. In partners, each player takes a turn drawing a card. Then, they write down the digital time on their recording sheet. Watch out for that fly in that pile! If you pick one, you lose a turn! The first player to fill up their sheet is the winner!<br />

Something else I've wanted to do FOREVER is make informational slides for each countries that I teach about in Holidays Around the World. There is just not much information out there for so many of the countries/holidays. I have taken what I know and what I've researched/read and put the <a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Holidays-Around-the-World-Informational-Slides-4215080">information in slides with graphics</a>. There are 20 countries included and 4 slides per country (1 slide with the country's flag and 3 slides with information). </div>

I know you're spending your own money on this and I want you to make the most informed decision. Because of the updates I've made the past year, I feel like this product has everything we need to teach Holidays Around the World and not get sick of it each year (there are SO many options, guys!). Want to know more? I've made this video to describe pretty much everything in the pack so you can see exactly what's included. If you purchase the NEW bundle, you get 20 countries instead of 13! </div>

These make it so you can "check off" things as you teach them so you can track what/when you've taught. You can also track whole-class mastery (not individual students- that's the data checklists). Grades K-6 available! </span></span></span></div>

It keeps them motivated and is a constant reminder to follow the expectations. The very first time I'm absent in the school year, I send my students this video to watch right when they come in!<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/oY_07UT1xQY" width="480"></iframe>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<br />
The video isn't mandatory, but it adds an element of excitement! I email the video to the substitute and leave her a laptop from our laptop cart (when we request for a sub, it gives us an option of contacting them via email), but you could also burn it on a DVD or have another teacher quickly show it for you. I made this video in iMovie, but if you don't have an iPhone or a Mac, you can use the app InShot. It's free and simple!<br />
<br />
<br />
So, here's the challenge! If the students follow the expectations, the sub can open up an envelope and get a clue out! As the day goes on, the substitute can keep opening up the envelopes. I have my clues spell out iPad, so I only needed 4 envelopes. I feel like in my classroom that was just enough. The last clue is unlocked at the very end of the day!<br />
<br />

<br />
You'll leave the envelopes hanging on the board so that your students can see them! I leave the substitute direction sheet on my desk with my <a href="http://www.whattheteacherwantsblog.com/2016/10/editable-substitute-survival-kit-sub-tub.html">sub plans </a>so she can fully understand it as well. This freebie comes blank, in case you want to change it up each time you have a sub (different reward).<br />

I love bulletin boards. Do I change them out every month? HECK NO. It's maybe every 3 or 4. ;). But, I do love creating them and sharing them with my students. <br />
<br />
Here are some of the back-to-school bulletin boards I've created over the years. You can see the quality gets better over the years. Don't judge my oldies.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Most of these bulletin boards are just made by me putting the letters in PowerPoint (tying one letter per page), printing and cutting them out. Then, I'll find clipart that goes with it and print them off and stick a label with my students' names on it!<br />

<br />
I have a few random pictures of what I've been doing in my classroom to get ready! I love the energy of my school during back-to-school time! Everyone's excited, but slightly bummed that summer is over. That feeling goes away once we all start working in our classrooms and prepping for our new students (ok, well that bummed feeling *mostly* goes away).<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I LOVE to think of fun ways to welcome my students to my classroom with my back-to-school bulletin board. Check out *some* past bulletin boards <a href="http://whattheteacherwants.blogspot.com/2010/08/september-bulletin-boards.html">HERE</a>.</div>
This year, I took some inspiration from my husband who LOVES Minions (he's a little kid at heart). We watch Despicable me with our niece and nephews and my husband laughs louder than they do. ;) Sure do love that man! Anyway, I found a piñata at Walmart that just CALLED MY NAME and then I found these cute <a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Minion-Bulletin-Board-Set-1393371">Minions on TpT</a>. Off I went to decorate!<br />

Each year I do a Donation Door for our Back-to-School Night. Parents can come by and grab a sticky note off of our door that says the name of a school supply. They can send in the donated school supplies with their child to school the next day! It's an awesome way to get a variety of supplies for your classroom and not just getting 3,934 boxes of tissues. ;) {You can check out another donation door I've done, <a href="http://whattheteacherwants.blogspot.com/2010/08/classroom-dontations.html">here</a>}</div>

A few years ago I found this CUUUUUTE behavior mangament idea from <a href="http://growingkinders.blogspot.com/2012/04/another-quick-behavior-idea.html">Growing Kinders</a>. I've always done <a href="http://whattheteacherwants.blogspot.com/2010/11/management-monday.html">Brownie Points</a> as a whole-class incentive, but this year I'm doing Mr. Potato Head. I'll pull off all of his parts (hehe) and if the students are working quietly, I will add one part at a time until he is all put together. Once he's all back together, there will be a MYSTERY prize that the whole class will win (lunch with teacher, extra recess, or maybe popcorn party).</div>

Each year we have a class awards ceremony. I've made these <a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/End-of-Year-Awards-Emoji-Themed-4509063">emoji themed awards</a> (30 different awards)! They come in color and black/white, with an editable option so you can type your students' names and your name (and you only have to type your name once- it will autofill your name to all other pages)!</div>

It takes extra time during the lesson to get them out, pass them out and then to put them away at the end. I like to save time with this tip that my team at my last school used.<br />
<br />
My most used manipulatives are stored in little tupperware boxes that each of my students have inside of their desks!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7ygOGJJHXos/V-GgwlQnhxI/AAAAAAAAJgg/HoFqAYOux_w6ljO7zoBDc37E4uH53Vs-wCLcB/s1600/Slide1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7ygOGJJHXos/V-GgwlQnhxI/AAAAAAAAJgg/HoFqAYOux_w6ljO7zoBDc37E4uH53Vs-wCLcB/s640/Slide1.jpg" width="348" /></a></div>

They keep these boxes right inside of their desks. The <a href="http://amzn.to/2cn1NOQ">tupperware/Gladware boxes</a> are the kind that are "disposable" and found near the Ziploc bags. These boxes have lasted 7 years! Whenever we use a certain manipulative, my students can quickly grab it out and be ready for our lesson. </div>

Inside of their boxes I put the most used math manipulatives that we have. It took me a few years to accumulate all of the manipulatives that I wanted in their boxes.</div>

Maybe you felt like your doctor needed to spell it out to
you, much like you spell out tricky words for your students. You couldn’t be infertile.
That’s not you. You’re meant to be a mom. But, yes. Our doctors told us that we
have PCOS or Endometriosis or “Unexplained Infertility” or any other name for
it. But those names don’t matter… what we heard was “broken.”<o:p></o:p></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Maybe you had plans, too. College, career, marriage and then
maybe children. But the years passed and the more time that went on, the more we
yearned for children of our own. We’ve got kids, sure. We’ve got 26 first
graders who accidentally call us mom on the daily and if we’re really lucky
they might even call us grandma. We’ve got students who ask us how many kids we
have and without hesitation we say “I’ve got all of you, and right now that
feels perfect”. What we really want to say is, “We want kids of our own, but we’re
broken.” It seems like<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>our students’
parents are so much younger than we are. They have 4 children. We should have
at least 2. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We’ll be the parents that
teachers think are the grandparents. Time is not our friend. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Maybe you find it painful when the innocent substitute
teacher down the hall asks you how long you’ve been married and you cringe
because you know what question is coming next. It’s even more painful when they
ask us WHEN we plan on having kids. “One day,” we say, or maybe we make up
something like, “We just aren’t ready to have kids yet.” Because lying is easier. It saves our pain from flowing out. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>What
we really want to say, “Well, I’m broken and there’s a lot of money we need to
come up with for us to have children…care to pitch in?”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Maybe you find it difficult being on timed medications as a
teacher. Oh, inject this shot into my stomach at 9:05am? Sure! That’s right
during small group reading instruction so I’ll just leave those 6 year olds to
themselves for 10 minutes (it takes us 9 minutes to muster up the courage, 1
minute to actually administer the shot) and they can teach themselves to read. Remember
when we thought we had the flu, but it was really the Clomid? Oh yeah, it was sure a
blast to teach double-digit addition while periodically heaving into the
garbage can in the hallway. "Keep your lunch down! Keep your lunch down! Keep
your lunch down!..." was our new call to attention in room 104. <o:p></o:p>We are hot, then cold, then hot again. Hot flashes in our 30's? Thanks a lot, Clomid... you a**hole.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Maybe you had a hard time managing all of your appointments
to get your blood drawn, temperature taken, uterus scanned. The last
appointment of the day…3:30pm?!? Really? Guess we’ll be finding someone to take
our class for the last 30 minutes, or the first 30 minutes, or maybe we could make my
appointment during my lunch break? No? Well, I guess we could get a half-day substitute.
We love writing sub plans! Sometimes we wonder why we don’t just have a desk job
that allows us to leave for 2 hours during the day without batting an eye. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Maybe you wonder where the money will come from, but you haven’t
let that stop you. We as teachers make SOOOO much money and IVF is so affordable
(BTW insurance gets a giant middle finger right here). Our sarcasm is at an
all-time high on this topic. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Maybe you are still happy for your friends and family having
babies, but you can also be completely devastated and confused at the same time.
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>These happen for us simultaneously, don’t
they? Oh, you didn’t have to track you periods and ovulation for 2 years and
you just had a baby…by just…wait for it…. "doing it?” It stings a little to
think this happens for other people and not us, but you go Glen Cocoa! No period
trackers, ovulation trackers, and temperature taking at all? We want to give
you an award and snuggle your baby and cry - all at the same time! Let's not even talk about baby showers for our friends and family.<br />
<br />
Maybe we've planned out how we will tell our students when we get pregnant. Of course we've planned out how we'll announce it to our spouse and family. But...to our students...that is something very special to teachers. There will be voting on boy or girl and confetti and glitter and balloons. Oh yes- the bar graph...because #standards. We'll make a bar graph of whether they think it's a boy or a girl. We'll look at the data we collected. We'll celebrate. But instead we won't. Because their teacher is broken. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Maybe we
haven’t told anyone about our infertility struggle over these painful years because we don’t want pity or
awkwardness or worry. Maybe we are scared to talk about it because we don't want to share bad news, only the good. Maybe 2019 is about telling our truth. What do we want from this? We just want a listening ear and a high-five or a hug. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
We are the 1 in 8. When we teach fractions we see the odds
of 1/8, but we do not understand it in this capacity. Guess it’s that dang Common Core. <o:p></o:p></div>

This year is EXCITING because I have added 8 new countries! I have now created a <a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Holidays-Around-the-World-Part-3-4216277">Holidays Around the World Part 3</a>. I had so many requests for certain countries that were not included in <a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Holidays-Around-the-World-Unit-Part-1-168973">Part 1</a> or <a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Holidays-Around-the-World-Part-2-429186">Part 2</a>. Ask and ye shall receive (but I really wanted the variety for my classroom as well)!<br />

Something else I've wanted to do FOREVER is make informational slides for each countries that I teach about in Holidays Around the World. There is just not much information out there for so many of the countries/holidays. I have taken what I know and what I've researched/read and put the <a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Holidays-Around-the-World-Informational-Slides-4215080">information in slides with graphics</a>. There are 20 countries included and 4 slides per country (1 slide with the country's flag and 3 slides with information). </div>

Want to know more? I've made this video to describe pretty much everything in the pack so you can see exactly what's included.

<span style="font-size: x-small;">This blog post is in partnership with Wonder Workshop. All opinions are my own. </span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VNaWg2lvs30/W-X3zT3BX1I/AAAAAAAAKyw/bM8f4MiUbScXdMzPw3u7SnGC7ixjz5HKgCLcBGAs/s1600/Slide3.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="720" height="426" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VNaWg2lvs30/W-X3zT3BX1I/AAAAAAAAKyw/bM8f4MiUbScXdMzPw3u7SnGC7ixjz5HKgCLcBGAs/s640/Slide3.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<b>1. STEM integration made-easy (coding!)</b><br />
My students are learning the basics of coding by using the Wonder App on our classroom iPad. The <a href="https://www.makewonder.com/">Dash robot from Wonder Workshop</a> is ideal for K-6 classroom (if you're looking for something 6th-12th, try the <a href="https://www.makewonder.com/cue_the_cleverbot/">Cue</a>). They go through the engineering process when coding as well. The iPad app easily pairs with your robot. We learned how to make the robot talk, move, and light up- all in one day! The great thing about Wonder Workshop is that it has resources for educators (videos, curriculum, accessories, etc). They've really thought of everything!<br />
<br />
We love watching YouTube videos to learn more:<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is also coding curriculum for Dash that is available to educators when your school purchases the robtos.</div>

<br />
<br />
<b>2. They are SO engaging and fun!</b><br />
My students are obsessed with our "class pet" named Dash. We use him during STEM rotations and my students work together on an ipad to do block coding. They figure it out on their own because the app is so user-friendly. My students set a timer on the iPad and trade off after 4 minutes each. They collaborate and problem solve when Dash isn't doing quite what they coded him to do.<br />
<br />
<br />
It's funny that I'm writing this post because here's what 2 of my students wrote today!<br />
<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<b>3. There are a variety of extensions, apps, curriculum and resources!</b><br />
<br />
Don't worry, when you get a <a href="https://www.makewonder.com/">Dash</a> or <a href="https://www.makewonder.com/">Cue</a> Robot in your classroom you won't be left to figure it out on your own! There are so many things available to your students and one of them we love is the <a href="https://store.makewonder.com/products/sketch-kit">Sketch Kit</a>. The <a href="https://store.makewonder.com/products/sketch-kit">Sketch Kit</a> is a new accessory for Dash and Cue robots that enables
kids to visualize the results from their code on a large-scale, dry-erase surface. Sketch Kit helps
kids sketch out their programs so they can share their creations with friends, teachers, and
parents. Sketch Kit allows kids to express their creativity and exercise their critical thinking and
spatial reasoning skills as they draw geometric shapes, abstract patterns, animals, words, and
more.<br />

I would HIGHLY recommend getting a Dash for your classroom! This was me a few months ago figuring out:<br />
