The Primary Punchbowl
Saturday, October 15, 2016
Oh my goodness you guys! I cannot believe that my Punchie buddies and I have been blogging together for a whole year! The Primary Punchbowl is turning 1!
It is so exciting to share our celebration with you. I am so incredibly fortunate to know each and every one of the amazing Punchbowl ladies. They inspire me all the time and I am always in constant awe of the fabulous-ness of their lives!
So in honor of our celebration we are giving you cause for celebration as well with TpT stores on sale, a blog hop to gather some freebies, AND a rafflecopter to enter for a chance to win some more goodies!
My entire store is on sale for 20% for three days. Enjoy!
How do you celebrate exciting things in the classroom? I love to give kiddos a special treat such as line leader for the day or a giant pixi stik or a bag of candy loot. They love just to have happy birthday sung to them by the whole class! It's a policy of the school that we don't do cupcakes or actual parties so acknowledging them first thing in the morning makes for a great big smile on some faces!!
I used to give the birthday boy or girl a sticker "ribbon" to wear all day but you know stickers, they get un-sticky after being put on shirts, sweatshirts, pants, taken off, placed on books and binders, etc. and they were getting a little expensive at my local teacher store. I've also tried brag tags and birthday bags and birthday buttons. But I thought I'd try something different.
So I made some Birthday Bracelets!
So simple. I just print them out and tape them around a little wrist. They are perfect for helping to make a child's day a little more special! These are wider than most paper bracelets - they remind me of slap bracelets! I will print them out on card stock, cut apart, and keep them on hand for birthday days!
So here's your freebie! It's the Birthday Bracelets - but they're EDITABLE! And black and white! The black and white ones not only save ink, but could be given to the special kiddo so they can color it in and make it theirs! Maybe print out a blank one and they can write their own name, too!
Click {HERE} to make a copy for your Google Drive so you can start editing and making it your own. You will need to be signed in to your Google account (it's free!) to access and edit it.
Thank you so much for celebrating with us!
Hop on over to visit Elisabeth at Literacy and Lattes to continue this fabulous celebration! Make sure to visit the Punchbowl to enter the Rafflecopter and Happy Celebrating!

Hi guys! How's your summer going? Mine has started off with a bang and hasn't stopped.
I'm linking up today with The Primary Punchbowl to share my classroom move this coming fall. Many members of the Punchbowl are changing up jobs this year. Elisabeth from Literacy and Lattes wrote a great anchor post HERE so check it out.
Well my principal had been asking me since October if I would take the Video Production job at my school. My master's is in educational technology so it is my dream to eventually teach technology or coordinate technology somewhere. I put it off and put it off and kept telling myself
Sooooooo.....I thought and prayed and thought and prayed and made Pros and Cons Lists and talked to everyone and finally..........................I decided.
I need to know this! I won't really be giving homework in my class so no homework passes are out. I've usually collected McDonald's toys and the like for my treat box but I'm pretty sure that 6th graders won't want a Hello Kitty plastic toy that stamps hearts. Please let me know!

"I can't add past 30!"
"I'm so comfortable here!"
"I don't know anything about Video Production!"
"Sixth graders are so big!"
"What do you mean they don't like stickers?"
Yep. I'm taking the plunge. Or the climb. Or whatever. So now my mind is saying things like
"What am I supposed to do with my 6,789,234,564 books?"
"Surely 6th graders love Fly Guy, right?"
"Can I keep all my stuffed animals?"
"Who has a Video Production?Media Literacy Curriculum I can use?"
"What if I break the equipment? What if they break the equipment?"
"What if they don't get as excited about glitter as I do?"
"WHAT IF THEY DONT LIKE GLITTER?!?!?"
Whew. It's a lot. And I've only answered a few of those questions. I will have to write my curriculum from scratch seeing as I can't seem to find what I'm looking for.
I've found a few sites to help me and support me while I'm learning. But for the most part, it will be coming from my own brain. And it's not just sixth grade. We plan on adding 7th and 8th by 2019. So this curriculum will have to span three years and build upon one another.
Here's my beginning:

I will start small, just teaching about digital citizenship and Google and learning the equipment. Then we will slowly move onto a grander scale! I've got a vision - we shall see!
But I will still be working on products and ideas for ALL grades. I've got a list of things for primary that I've never gotten to so I need to keep on creating!
So, any advice for me? What's stuff I need to know or do? My daughter tells me that I need to stay up in the know on Internet memes (9 + 10 = 21?? Really??) so apparently I'll be browsing Tumblr. A lot.
Are you changing it up? Link up to share your move, too!
