Five for Friday!

HAPPY FRIDAY!

I'm linking up with Kacey for

This week is all about the "schwa!" This may be my all-time favorite phonics skill! I actually find it super-tricky to teach. About couple years ago, my fabulous co-teacher and I were literally tearing our hair out thinking of practice words and activities to tackle schwa. We threw everything we had at it & our firsties ended up doing SO well. Now (two years later), we still laugh about those crazy days and I think our students pick up on how much fun we're having with it :)

I have a Schwa Activity Pack in my store,
plus I added a holiday spin to it:

Everything But the Kitchen Sink

Of course, I hope you are enjoying the bundle and all the updates, but I have a slight confession to make...I made this bundle for ME. Technically, for my students :)

This bundle is my own personal dropbox for 2015. I have everything I need in one download. I'm pretty sure I've downloaded it many more times than anyone who has already purchased it! Maybe because my own dropbox has files ranging in the quintuple-digits. Very sad face :(

Next week is our last week before our much-needed Spring Break! We will be celebrating April Fool's Day in style with this activity (freebie!)

 I'm also thrilled to announce my first blogpost over at iTeachfirst!

You can check it out here, plus pick up another freebie!

As the weeks fly by and Spring Fever is in full bloom, here's a quote Teachers Pay Teachers shared on Instagram that's cheering me on...

Have a fantastic weekend! Jen
