ChartOur little Cowpokes are constantly in and out of our classroom doing different activities.<br />
<br />
It's so important for staff members, other teachers and/or families to locate us when we're out and about.<br />
<br />
I created this adorable "Where Are The Cowpokes?" pack with a ROOTIN TOOTIN western theme to make it easy to let others know where we are.<br />
<br />
You can simply hang it on your door or wall and change the designated circles to let people know where you are located. Easy Peezy Lemon Squeezy.<br />
<br />
This pack includes:<br />
<br />
1. Two posters to choose from<br />
2. 28 circles with different places too choose from (i.e., P.E, library, lunch, field trip, chapel, assembly, music, garden, art, playground, etc).<br />

I have seen so many cute BULLETIN BOARDS! I must admit, as much as I love them, I have a really hard time finding time to change them weekly or monthly. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A veteran teacher gave me the best advise when I first started teaching..."Work Smarter Not Harder."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So as much as I love creating adorable bulletin boards, I have saved time with simple ones.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In the beginning of the year, I created a giant area with fadeless blue paper and western border to match the Western theme in my room. I decided I would keep this paper up all year (again to save time) and just change the class work. Below are some of the bulletin boards I created in my class this year. </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
For the first week of school (August), I simply put up a Western WELCOME banner and poster. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This banner is in my <a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Western-Theme-Classroom-Decor-Part-1-809541" target="_blank"><b>Western Theme Pack on TPT HERE.</b></a></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
This is not the best photo but we learned about school rules and made "NO David" art (September).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We created a poster together of the school rules and put this up with the art.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
While learning about shapes, we created Shape Monsters (October). </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I put the Glyph Data we collected on the board too.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We also learned about our names and created rainbow name art.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For the 50th Day of School, we created 50th Day "greasers" and "poodle skirt girls" (November).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I put the poster with data we created together "Can You Blow A Bubble?" up as well as our</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
class book "Our 50th Day Lego Book". </div>

I forget to take a picture of my December board. We learned about Holidays Around the World and made adorable reindeers flying around the world. Next year I will remember to take a picture.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

For New Years, we created adorable "Selfies" holding a giant i-Pod (January).</div>

"Game On! We will play our BEST in 2015"</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love this project! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We did a directed drawing of Martin Luther King with "I have a dream" writing with it (January). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The poster is a picture of MLK with all the facts we learned about him while reading and researching about his life.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For the 100th Day, we created Grannie and Grandpa's..."What we will look like when we are 100 years old" (February). The portrait idea is from Deanna Jump's 100th Day unit on TPT.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We also created a class book "Look What We Can Build with 100th Legos."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We put 100 sprinkles on a cupcake, 100 toppings in a pizza and 100 gum-balls in a gum-ball machine.</div>

While researching animals, the kids worked in groups to create posters about a specific animals (March). I simply put the posters on the bulletin board.</div>

I am so excited there is a way to safely show YouTube videos in my class without without worrying about the ads and inappropriate content that may pop up in the beginning!!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #373737; font-weight: 300; line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #373737; font-weight: 300; line-height: 24px;">SafeShare is a website that takes YouTube videos and gets rid of almost ALL of the advertisements and inappropriate content around the main video. Safeshare even removes the ads that are often showed before popular videos. All you do is copy the YouTube link and paste it into <span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: blue;">Safeshare.tv</span> </span>(see image below). Then you are given a new link to use instead of the YouTube link. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 22px;"><br /></span></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 22px;">In Kinderworld, we have been working on digital storytelling using the <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/felt-board/id492342753?mt=8" target="_blank"><b>Felt Board app.</b></a> The students need to create a setting, characters, problem and solution on one page on the ipad. I just wasn't sure how to assess this so I created a rubric on Rubistar.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 22px;"><br /></span></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 22px;">First, I selected WRITING as the rubric focus. Then I clicked on STORYTELLING. After,</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 22px;">I was given several options to create a personalized rubric for my class. This is a screen shot of the rubric I created.</span></span><br />

<br />
I have put together an AMAZING list of BRAIN BREAKS and EDUCATIONAL YOUTUBE VIDEOS BELOW that can be used throughout the day to help your littles move and learn.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b><a href="http://kinderworldway.blogspot.com/search/label/YOUTUBE%20videos" target="_blank">CLICK HERE FOR THE </a></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b><a href="http://kinderworldway.blogspot.com/search/label/YOUTUBE%20videos" target="_blank">NEW UPDATED VIDEOS</a></b></span></div>
<br />
One of my favorite ways to get the "WIGGLES OUT" and give the kiddos a chance to get up and move is by doing a quick BRAIN BREAK. The kids are obsessed with these fun dance videos and it is an excellent way for regaining focus during instruction.<br />
<br />
Research shows that physical movement increases blood flow, bringing more oxygen to the brain and leads to improved concentration. Who doesn't want that????<br />
<br />
According to <a href="http://actionforhealthykids.org/">actionforhealthykids.org</a>, being physically active helps kids learn better so they can do better in school. I absolutely agree!<br />
<br />
I use the YOUTUBE videos during transitions or while working on a specific skill. I love when I hear the kiddos singing the songs on the playground or with their friends!!<br />
<br />
When the brain break or video is over, be sure to have a quiet signal or sign that can refocus students quickly so they will STOP, LOOK and LISTEN. I either wiggle my fingers in the air OR put a quiet finger over my mouth with one hand and show a peace sign with my other (that's the signal for peace and quiet).<br />
<br />
You can also manage what songs to play by having a class DJ who chooses for the day or use popsicle sticks with the the Brain Breaks on them.<br />
<br />
Another great new site for Brain Breaks is <a href="https://www.gonoodle.com/" target="_blank">GONOODLE</a>. This awesome new site uses music, dance, and stretching while incorporating classroom management. Check it out!<br />
<br />
What other great videos am I missing? Please comment and let me know what I can add to this list!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"> I LOVE Cinco De Mayo at school! We do so many fun activities! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">One of my favorite activities is making </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">HOMEMADE SALSA with the kiddos!</span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">This unit ties in great with our planting unit. We are learning about </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Plants We Use </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">What Part of the Plant Do We Eat?</span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">As a project based learning activity, we planted a garden with fresh tomatoes, basil, cilantro and peppers (some of the ingredients for our salsa).</span><br />

<u>New Light Up Dry Erase Crayola Board for Word Work!</u></div>
<br />
I found this light up board at Target and it's on sale now for $20.00!<br />
My daughter, Makena, who's in kindergarten, loved playing with it (I always test things out on her!).<br />
The board can be used for <u>sight words or word family practice</u> during word work!<br />
<br />

When the board is turned off, the writing looks normal. When you turn the board on, all the words light up and glow in a neon color! It's so cool!!!<br />

It's battery operated and comes with 6 neon markers that attach to the back. It erases really easy with a dry eraser or damp cloth and it can stand vertically or horizontally.<br />

I created this <u><b><a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Westen-Theme-Bucket-Filler-Pack-1097517" target="_blank">Western Theme Bucket Filler Pack</a></b></u> as a way to further integrate this great concept into my classroom!<br />

During the month of October, we learn all about community helpers and jobs.<br />
We invite the local firefighters and police officers to come to our school and talk about their jobs. We also encourage parents to come and share about their jobs. This year we had a chemist come do science experiments!<br />
We also went on a field trip to the pumpkin patch and learn about farmers!<br />
<br />
One of my favorite days during this unit was Career Day Centers. We have 3 kindergarten classrooms and we each set up 5 career centers in our classrooms (we had 16 total jobs). The kids rotated in each of the classrooms. We spent about 45 minutes in each class and about 5-7 minutes at each station. The kids experienced many types of careers!<br />
<br />
Here are some!<br />

The kids had so much fun and stayed very engaged.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The centers allowed the students to be creative, use their imagination and experience real careers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Some of the centers required writing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and create a price.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The teachers had to model for their "stuffed animal students" how to write correctly on the lines using a white board and read a book from their book bags.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The bakers used math to measure and make "Hunter's Hash"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(cheerios, pretzels and marshmallows).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The postal workers had to sort mail by letters and numbers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

At the end of the unit, the kids finally decide on their career and DRESS UP as what they want to be when they grow up. They come to school dressed in their career costume and present in front of the class. The kids answer the following questions:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. What do you want to be when you grow up?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. Where do you work in the community?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
