WoooHooo for Winter!

Yay! You have no idea how excited I am about winter! Even though I think Miss Weather has forgotten that winter is supposed to be cold. We have been having 50-60 degree weather here in North Carolina! It's crazy! I mean HELLOOOO! What does a girl have to do to get a little snow around here?! So, if it's not going to snow from the sky I will make it snow from my computer! Ha!
I have a go to site that I love to share with the kids every winter called Make A Flake! On the site you get to fold a virtual piece of paper and cut it with your virtual scissors. Then you can unfold it and see your beautiful, one of a kind creation. There's even a gallery you can save it to and look at other's creations as well! The kids absolutely love it and have no idea that they are learning...muahahahaha (evil laugh)! This site is great for all ages because it teaches the little ones great mouse control and teaches the older ones symmetry!

Finally...My First Packet!!!!

So let me start out by saying how absolutely AMAZED I am by all of the teachers on Teachers Pay Teachers! You guys are just WOW! I could never, ever create anything near all of the cool things that you do, but I figured I would try my best. So here is my first packet! It is filled with 8 winter activities that would be great for literacy centers, math centers, small group work or even as a whole group activity! Lots of printouts, cut outs, worksheets, etc. Here's a small preview below! Click on the preview if you would like to see more!
