Teachers Pay Teachers

Have you been contemplating ways to bring in extra money? I would highly recommend taking a look at Teachers Pay Teachers. I've bought loads of great stuff and also managed to sell a fair amount. I'm still navigating the waters of how to bring in an actual income using the site, but slowly and surely things are growing.

If you are considering signing up as a selling please use this link:

(Using the referral doesn't effect your income at all.)

I have found that the more I create, the more thoughtful I am about aligning to common core (which my school doesn't use) and building creative and dynamic lessons. I also focus on creating things that I actually use in the classroom. Two birds, one stone! This way all of the planning hours that I put into my classroom have a small side benefit too.

S Snake

Snakes are a regular occurrence here in the jungle. We see snakes slither across our outdoor hallway with some frequency, so the kiddos have a personal connection to them. This was reflected in lots of patterns, smiles, and familiarity.

M Monkey

Where I live there are four kinds of monkeys that we see nearly everyday. On the way to school or in the afternoons it is quite normal to see troupes of either shorter long tail macaques. And if we are especially lucky we catch sight of a gibbon or langur high in the branches of a tree. When I first chatted with the class about monkeys they were most excited about the short tail macaques who tend to be the larger monkeys who are not skittish around people. And thus was born the M Monkey, or M Macaque. The children are quick to say that the monkeys LOVE garbage can messes.

L Ladybug

Our L Ladybugs spawned a fascination in insects. Now everyday at recess the kiddos search for moths, beetles, and giant cockroaches to put in our magnifiers and observe. So far I haven't been too creeped out by all of our classroom squiggley wiggley guests.
