Attention Grabbers Updated

I recently updated the Attention Grabbers Pack.  Here are pictures of the two new attention grabbers included in the packet.

"Listen up".....  "Buttercup" is an attention grabber my colleague uses in her kindergarten class.  It is a positive phrase to get your children to focus in and listen to directions.  The teacher says, "listen up".  The students say, "buttercup".  Simple and to the point.

I use "Chicka Chicka!"  "Boom Boom" all the time in my kindergarten classroom.  It is short and to the point.  I use this phrase right when we line up and get ready to enter the hallway.  I say, "chicka chicka" and students reply, "boom boom!"  This is the way I get students to have eyes forward, mouths closed, and no gaps between the lines.

I just LOVE these backgrounds!!  I purchased them through TpT from Hello Literacy!!  Jen Jones.....  You rock!!  Here is a link to her chalkboard backgrounds.

I also purchased the alphabet fonts through TpT from The 3am Teacher.  Hree is a link to the fonts.  Michelle.....  You are incredible!!

A Great Way to Start Off the Week!

I am so excited to share the 2012 Winters Holidays Teaching Tips & Freebies for 1st and 2nd grade.  If you get the TpT Newsletter it was featured there today.  This book features sellers from Teachers Pay Teacher who are sharing Holiday tips and activities.  Also, they are sharing... freebies!  Each page has a link to a free item in the teachers' stores.  I am going to sit down tonight and download all of them.  My freebies are featured on page 50!  Go check it out...

I also have a question for teachers... What are some books (K-2) that you think almost every teacher has in their classroom?  My blogging partners and I had this discussion the other day!  We came up with the Pigeon books, Click Clack Moo, and a few others.  So let us know what books you think almost all teachers have in their classrooms!
