Get Up and MOVE! {Guest Post}

Happy Monday! (#imateacheranddon'tcarewhatdayitis)

We had such a lovely weekend.  We took the little lady to the beach.  It was gorgeous weather all weekend!  Hope you enjoyed some time outside.

I wanted to let you guys know about a another fun guest post I did over at One Stop Teacher Shop.

You'll walk away with 5 great ideas for making review games more active and fun in your classroom along with 2 FREEBIES!  Hope you'll check it out!





Ten on Ten {Monthly Linky Party} AND "Summertime, Game Time" Surprise Game FREEBIE

Ok.  We've got a LOT to get through today!  It's Friday, so that means I've got a new surprise freebie for you, AND it's the 10th of the month which means it's time for another round of Ten on Ten.

So let's get started shall we?  First up, freebie time!  Week 3 is ready for you on TpT!  Click the picture below to open your surprise present for this week!

And, because I love my readers, here's your blog reader extra exclusive, available only here on the blog. Click the banner below and be sure to download it to get full access to the file!


And now for some Ten on Ten.

I've missed a couple months on this, but I want to get back in on the action.   I always enjoy seeing what other bloggers are up to on their every day life.  I decided to make this monthly post into a linky party!  So, you're a blogger and want to get in on the fun, here's how to participate:

1)  Choose ten pictures that show your readers what's been going on in your life lately.  The pictures can be both teacher and non-teacher related.
2)  Place the pictures in post on the tenth of each month. You can include a small caption with each picture if you'd like.  You must include my blog button (found on my side bar) somewhere in your post)
3)  Come to the Classroom Game Nook and link up your post to the linky party.  Check out other bloggers who have linked up and leave a comment or two on their blogs to share the love!

I hope you'll participate.  Here are my Ten on Ten:







Now it's your turn - link up your ten pictures!  And that's that!  Hope you'll link up and enjoy each other's Ten on Ten!








Buy the Bundle, Save a Bundle!

Hey!  Happy Tuesday!  I'm so glad to hear all the positive feedback for Week Two's "Summertime, Game Time" Surprise freebie last Friday.

I had such a nice weekend up in the Adirondacks.  The weather was kind of blah, but it was still a great time with friends.  Hope your holiday weekend was spectacular, as well!

The holiday is over with, however, and it's back to the daily grind. :)  And I got up early this morning to work on a little project for anyone looking to prep, plan, and SAVE this summer!

I am excited to let everyone know that many of my units are now available in a discounted bundle pack to save you money!  If you've used my units before, then you know how jam-packed they are with lessons, student activities, bulletin board sets, SMARTBoard/PowerPoint Anchor slides and more - and this bundle deal is more of the same - just cheaper!

Currently, I have the following bundles that you might be interested in:
This unit combines my Teaching Non-Fiction Reading and Teaching Non-Fiction Writing, two units that work perfectly to be taught at the same time.  Save $8.00 when you buy the bundle.

Want to incorporate reader's and writer's workshop this year, but not sure how to get started?  These two units are all you need for the first MONTH of school to introduce your students to the routines and procedures of the workshop model.  Save $8.00 when you buy the bundle.

Some of my best sellers are included in this set!   This bundle include all FOUR of my science units currently available in my store.  You'll receive my "Sun, Earth, Moon" unit, my "Measuring Matter" unit, my "Force and Motion" unit, and my "Plants" unit.  You save $16.00 by purchasing the bundle!!!!  It's basically a "buy 3, get one free" deal!

This final bundle set includes all of my social studies units including "Native Americans," "Early European Explorers," "Colonial America," and "The American Revolution" AND - Coming Soon:  "The Civil War and Reconstruction" I have had MANY requests for this unit and will be working on it soon.  Once it's completed, I will be adding it to this bundle and those of you who have purchased it will be able to download it at no extra charge!  That will be 5 units for the price of 3!  Holy Cannoli!  You save $16.00 when you buy the bundle now (and make that $32.00 once I add the civil war unit!)

We're talking MONTHS of work already done for you!  Take a peek at any of the bundles by clicking any of the pictures above!

Have a top-notch day!







Summer Time, Game Time {WEEK 2}

It's Friday!  Woot, woot!  I'm heading out to the Adirondacks this weekend with some friends for the holiday weekend.  Oh, and did I mention we will be without child!?  My in-laws are watching Clara for the weekend and I could NOT be more excited for a little adult-only time!  We hope to catch some fireworks, enjoy the gorgeous scenery, and taste some good wine!  My kind of weekend!

Do you have any great 4th of July plans (other than download Week 2s "Summertime, Game Time"  Surprise Freebie, of course :) )??

Speaking of which....  Here it is!  I got SUCH great feedback from last week's surprise game, so I hope you grabbed that one!  I'm lovin' this week's game, and I hope you do, too!

Go ahead and head over to TpT and open your surprise :) {Click the pic to get it!}

Oh yeah, and for all you special CGN readers - here's your extra little goodie (a blog reader exclusive)! As I said last week, you may want to go grab your surprise freebie game first from TpT and then come back to grab your "blog reader freebie."  It will make more sense that way :)

But when you're ready, here it is:

Make sure that you actually download the file to get its full use :)

Happy 4th of July weekend!
