Giveaways, Freebies, OH MY!

What a busy week.  I'm not even back to school yet, however today-my legs are making me feel like those first few days of school!  {Spent the day at an amusement park with the family and in-laws}

I'm excited to tell you that I'm apart of TWO different giveaways going on right now!  Two of my bloggy friends are celebrating milestones!  Patti at a Series of 3rd Grade Events is celebrating her 300th follower.  Click on the picture to check out her giveaway where you could win $130.00 worth of prizes, including my newest packet:  Jet Setting.

 I created "Jet Setting" last week in anticipation that I will have a LOT of kids out for vacation like I did last year.  Honestly, I think I had my entire Reading, Math or Homeroom class for like 4 weeks out of the year.  It was CUH-RAAAAZZEEEE  not to mention that it drove me bonkers trying to remember who needed what, by when.  This packet includes things for kids to do that will get them looking for numbers and creating number sentences while out and about.  It also has them writing and thinking about what "story" their vacation could make!  I'm really proud of what I have created and actually can't wait for the first student to go on vacation this year, so that I can see how it works out!  I plan to give the person some sharing time when they return to share their book.  I think it will be such a great keepsake too!  Click on the picture to read more about it at my TPT store.

The second giveaway I'm participating in is Tammy's  at 123 Teach With Me is celebrating her 400th follower!  {Which, by the way I noticed that I just surpassed 400 recently too!  I'll be thinking up some good stuff for the big 5-0-0!}  Click on Tammy's picture below to enter her giveaway.  For hers, you can win ANYTHING {YES, anything!} from my store!  You will also win some fabulous prizes from 20 different TPT sellers!

Last, I wanted to leave you with something from me, to thank you for all of your support.  I get alllll sappy sometimes when I think about where I am, just going on 8 months later after starting my venture on Teachers Pay Teachers and here in bloggy land.  This is a repeat for you long-time followers, but maybe not so for my newer ones.  I promise to have some great freebies up within the week----and a GREAT not-so-educational chance to win something FABULOUS from one of my great long time teacher friends!

Click the picture below for a worksheet for your students to fill out during their first few days/weeks of school.  I know I'm becoming a minority out there as I still have one FULL week left of summer.  Hopefully it's not too late for you to use it!  It's a page out of my Back To School Bonanza packet.

This would make a great class book too!
