Tomorrow is our 100th Day of School ...and we can hardly wait to celebrate!
Each student in my classroom will be coming to school in a original "100 Day" Hat that they created at home with the help of their parents. Each month I assign a family project - and this was the one assigned for January.
Of course I had to create a 100's Day Hat as well. This is the one I created tonight- modeled by my 4th grader. What a trooper!
There are exactly 100 pieces of 100 calorie popcorn hot glued onto a popcorn container I already had. It was simple to make, completely original, and I didn't have to spend one cent.
I am anxious to see what my first graders have come up with - we have kept this one a big secret!

Welcome Aboard!
WELCOME ABOARD
I'm delighted that you have taken the time to drop anchor here at my little teaching blog: Sailing Though 1st Grade! Oh, the places we will go! Enjoy the voyage.

Word Work Packets
Over the last month I have created a number of Word Work packets that focus on vowel sounds spelled a variety of ways.
Each week, I have shared a new packet with my students... introducing one activity a day. The students love these - and their decoding and spelling have really improved!
An added bonus is that my word work is set for the week... and since each packet includes similar pages/activities, once an activity has been introduced- students know just what to do the following week with the new pack!
Each Word Work packet includes:
