Woodland Critters Multiple Choice Pinch Cards

This spring my school went through a major paper "crisis." The higher ups decided we were consuming way to much paper and decided to start rationing it. Of course what they failed to see was that it was partly because of demands they were putting on their teachers, but we won't go there.

Left virtually paperless, we were left to figure out ways to collect data using little to no paper. One of my favorites is pinch cards. They are super easy to create and use. They require almost no prep should you choose and kids love using them.

I created a set of multiple choice question pinch cards with a woodland critters theme that I now have for sale in my Teachers Pay Teachers store. Please take a look and consider purchasing them. If you would like another theme, just let me know and I'll see what I can do!

Oh the mess I have made...

... in my dining room!

Since I don't know where I'll be teaching next year when school was out, so was all my stuff. Because the room I was in wasn't officially mine, I only brought in bits and pieces of my stuff. However, I also inherited a lot of things too from one teacher who was retiring and some other teachers who were making major grade level changes.

When it came time to pack up I realized my stuff had somehow multiplied and I had a lot to bring home! It all landed in my dining room and I'm procrastinating now because my bins in the basement with all my teaching stuff are/were already a mess from me digging through them all year to find the random items I wanted to take to school. I really don't feel like organizing and putting this all away, only to dig it back out again. But alas... I probably should.

Go on a Fact Treasure Hunt!

I don't know about you, but my kiddos love, love, love doing anything with non-fiction text! I found these adorable pirate graphic from Scrappin' Doodles and thought they would be perfect for creating some pirate themed non-fiction text graphic organizers. I'm working on putting a whole set together, but here is a freebie for you while you wait!

I've decided to start uploading anything I make to that site as it will allow for more teachers to be able to find and access my items. Please leave feedback and subscribe, I will return the favor if you are a seller as well.
