Spring Giveaway...

Spring is in the air.....and what better time to get some new, fresh ideas to use in your classroom???? Spring is the perfect time to try out great new stuff to keep your kiddos engaged and learning.....and it keeps you from getting bored too!
What can you win??There will be 3 winners -- yes you read that right --
3 winners!!! Winners will get their choice of package. There are 2 packages to choose from:

- this package is most appropriate for Kindergarten through First grade. 

 - this package is most appropriate for late First grade through Second grade.
Read below to check out the stuff included in each package. 
1. Hoppy Easter Words - this packet is my own word wall word game that is appropriate for kindergarten and 1st grade, but can also be used with struggling 2nd graders. Each child chooses a bunny to help gather eggs in the basket. I like to use real egg-shaped candy and this game becomes ultra motivating.... Take a look at my TpT store if you have time:0)
2. Bubble Gum Reading Program - this packet contains tons of dolch sight words. It is a home/school connection that encourage children to learn the most important sight words and a way to track progress. It's fantastic....and it comes with bingo games as well! Thank you to Michelle from Teach 123 for this great product.
3. Zoo Literacy Activities - this packet includes so much - everything from letter identification, words families, and concept graphic organizers of zoo animals. Mandy from A Special Kind of Class completely outdid herself on this one!
4. Nouns: Singular & Plural, Common & Proper - this packet is all about nouns! Tessa from Tales From Outside the Classroom provides us with a complete noun unit - just about everything you need to teach your little ones about nouns.
5. Visual Schedule Cards with Ditigal Clocks - this packet is a collection of lovely printable schedule cards. Kids love being in control of their day and a visual schedule allows for that. April from Fun 2B in First includes lots of schedule cards for any possible activity you have during the day.
6. Alphabet Letter Sort - this packet contains 29 pages of printable for letter sorting. Kids have to really pay attention because there is different fonts to sort. This item is from Heather of Hojo's Teaching Adventures. You can also see her TpT store.

7. Easter Monsters Subtraction Write the Room - this is a terrific Easter-themed subtraction unit that can be used from kindergarten all the way through second grade. Marsha from A Differentiated Kindergarten did a beautiful job creating a math activity that your little ones will adore! 
8. Self-Checking Addition - this unit is from Jennifer of Best Practice 4 Teaching. It contains 144 pages of addition puzzles.

And for the older kiddos - (First grade and Second grade)..........
