It's My First Giveaway!

Yeah!
I am so excited!
My Giveaway is overdue- I wanted to have one when I hit 100. I had so much support with the stand against the MR and the non kitchen thing- so you all deserve a chance to win something great! (I had "kitchen" today.....bleck!)

So here it is.


(Fonts are from Kevin and Amanda and Font Garden)
But it isn't JUST The First 100- It's the also the Second 100 AND the Third 100!!!
Yep, that' right- 300 Fry Phrases in this format!

I am at a school where we do not have access to color printers (and I use my color printer for centers and posters) and I am too scared to use clip art (and post it) until I am Uber-sure I am doing that the right way- I don't want the Clip Art Police at my door! So B&W for things that I make multiple copies of is the key!

Ways I use them (and the possibilities are E.N.D.L.E.S.S)!

Print one class copy on cardstock and laminate- this copy gets used when we are waiting in line some where...(Flashcards), my moms have them in their caddies at times, I use the ppt and  an hour glass timer- they try to read as many slides as they can, sentence enhancers and my fav- They are on my class website for those parents who want to have a copy at home (and will use them)- and they don't have to print them if they choose not to!

What- not enough to make a "non-follower" become a "squirrel-a-holic"?

Ok, how about three winners?

Still not biting???

Ok, you twisted my tail... I'm throwing in  (and I feel a little like Oprah)....

....three $10 Target Gift Cards!!!!!! I know, right?!?!?! How Awesome AM I???

TOTALLY NON-RELATED:
Earlier, Kerrie at Teacher Bits and Bobs posted about her Target find and as soon as I saw it, I squealed! She found the cutest little take-out box -treat-holder-thingys so I yelled to the Mr, 
"MR!- WE HAVE TO GO TO TARGET- STAT!"
and so we did and I bought all of them!!! Plus the ice cube tray for "making" crayons.
I LOVE THEM! I will fill them with Candy and write something like "I'm Nuts about you!"
Have a great week this week!

  7. I have been putting Fry phrases on seasonal cutouts from our ellison machine and making games from them, having the students use them to make a complete sentence in journals, and having popcorn parties when we reach certain levels along with popcorn words.

  16. I'm pretty weak in the sight word department and need to get better at it. I introduce the 5 words, we work on them at school, and I remind parents to do it at home {with no real direction: that's my professional goal for next year} but don't do anything with the fry phrases. Would like that be part of my goal next year.

  26. I would use the Fry phrases whole class . . . maybe together on Mondays and Tuesdays and then challenge some kids to do it on their own on Wednesdays and Thursdays and then with parent volunteers every single day. :)
