Welcome

Welcome to my blog site. This year I will be teaching 4th grade ELA/SS. I'm excited to embark on the new changes approaching me. I'm always looking for new ideas to get students engaged and eager to learn. I hope you enjoy my blog. Please leave comments or ideas.

Polka-Dot-Wednesdays



I decided to create a Polka-Dot Wednesday. Polka-Dot Wednesday is designed to "Show Case" the most amazing and interesting ideas that teachers have developed. The ideas are "Show Cased" on my blog with the creator's website and name. If there are any FREE downloads --(I will direct you to the creator's blog). I'm hoping that "Polka Dot Wednesday" is a hit and that you are able to collect some valuable lessons or ideas to explore within your own classroom. Remember "POLKA-DOT Wednesday" located on 
Teaching with Style.







"My Favorite of the Week"

"Testing Survival Kit" 

Above are the Free Downloads that you can retrieve on her blog site.

I thought she did an AMAZING JOB creating these ideas and being so kind to share them with everyone. As we know students are preparing for state testing --just about everywhere--so I thought it would be great to share these ideas to motivate the kiddos. There are some more ideas listed below. I encourage you to visit her TpT Store and blog.





Let the primary grades motivate the students with words of encouragement. Then provide the water bottles to the students on testing day.




So Cute!!!



Great for Testing Day! Yum

I hope you enjoyed Polka-Dot Wednesday.
See you next week.
