5 for Colorful Friday!

Happy Five for Friday!


Thank you Kacey for hosting every week!

Today I have a project posted over at Ellison Education's blog!

Here's a quick sneak peek :)


Treat bags!

What I really need to do is take a video of how quickly I made these using my Superstar-Allstar machine...maybe 2 minutes?? Classroom set-up is going to be EPIC this year using it!

Today wraps up the first full week of summer and I've been busy checking off my to-do list, like updating my running playlist:


Thanks Kelly!

 I've also created a schedule for myself to finish 
my growing Phonics Bundle!


This weekend I'll be uploading the FIVE new phonics packets I've finished given a "make-over" to this week and adding to the bundle. The price will go up at least $6.00 this weekend, too, and keep inching up to the full price by July 31st.

I also managed a "quick" trip to Target, 
where I spotted this pack:


Great idea Crayola!

Luckily, I was able to resist purchasing this packet, 
because I knew in the depths of my basement I had this:


Just add a Netflix movie and you get this:



Now I need to find a great storage unit so my students can independently find exactly what they need!

Quick question - I could use some advice!


Have you used ESGI? I tried the 60 day free trial and HIGHLY recommend it! I loved it so much that I'm thinking of signing up for the year, but I'd love to hear your thoughts. I found it easy to create my own assessments, but I didn't have an easy time accessing the assessments that were already created...I admit to not spending a ton of time with it, or maybe it wasn't part of the free trial. 

I'd love to be talk into or out of it :)
Please leave a comment to share your experiences!

Thanks for reading! Have a fantastic Friday :)

  3. We use ESGI at my school, and I agree that accessing the assessments is difficult. If you have time to spend with it, you can figure it out. (But then 6 months roll by and then it's difficult to remember how things work. Good Luck!
