Favorite Pins

Another week of summer has passed! It is flying by way too quickly. Next week starts the "end" of summer for me. I'll be subbing at a writing camp, working at VBS at night at my church, tutoring a very gifted student in writing, and working on curriculum whenever I can get a chance. Before all the craziness begins I want to link up with The First Grade Parade for Favorite Pins Friday.


I have spent the summer looking through some of my pins for this I want to incorporate this coming school year.


I love the idea of a graffiti wall for book quotes. I don't have a lot of bulletin board space, so I may use the back of a door for a mini-graffiti wall. Have any of you ever used this before? I'd be interested in hearing how it worked out.


I use a lot of post-it notes during Reading Workshop. My students stick them in their Reading Notebook, and use them as a reference to write their Friday reading response letters to me. I like the idea of having them write long on a post it during the week. I think it will help me see more of their thinking on a day to day basis.

What are your favorite pins?

    Thanks for the comment on my blog! I agree, a slow cooker is great anytime! I have a 45 minute drive to and from work, so it's often a life saver!

    I LOVE your book quote pin! I love quotes and sayings! This would be so much fun, I may have to try that this year!!

    I like the idea of a graffiti wall and think behind the door would be perfect! I had a little board above my library one year for book recommendations. Kids wrote on post-its, and it was there for others to refer to when choosing a book.

    I have my students write letters to me each week, too. So I love the items of them using their post it notes to write long in their journals throughout the week. Thanks for sharing this great pin.

    I love the idea of "writing long" off a Post-it. I pinned this a little while back, and I definitely want to use it this year. Post-it notes are great,but I need to get better about what to do with them after they are shared. Thank you.
