Summer Countdown, Motivating Notes, Teacher Appreciation, and Giveaway!

Happy Teacher's Appreciation Week! 

I hope you have had a wonderful school year so far. I'm sure many of us can't wait for summer but this year I just don't feel ready to give up my awesome group of kiddos. Anyone relate? 

In case you haven't heard there is a site-wide sale going on at teacherspayteachers.com, and my entire store is on sale. Use code; THANKYOU17 to save up to 28% off at checkout. May 10th is the last day so hurry over!

Also, I have a few new resources that are over 50% off the for the first 48 hours (plus the 28% off discount if you get it during the site-wide sale. The first one is a Summer Countdown activity for your classroom. Now that the stress of two weeks of state testing is over, we could use a long summer break to recover, so I made this countdown for my classroom. 

The second resource on sale is Motivational Testing Notes for your students. I recently used these in my classroom for our state testing and I was surprised at how much students appreciated these notes, especially since they had been using to getting snack themed notes. 

More importantly, students were asked to explain their "Why?" and write it on one note with this task. I asked students why they wanted to pass the test and they actually gave awesome reasons and it helped them set some sort of goal for themselves. 

Another new resource that I posted earlier this spring that was a big hit with my students are these DIY Emoji Clocks that we used during our telling time lessons. Students get to choose their favorite emoji, color it in, label the clock, then put it together so they might use it during math practice. I decided to put these on sale as well, at half price, so with the THANKYOU17 code at check out they are over 50% off during this sale!
