Favorite Things: Holiday Edition



The Favorite Things Linky is a great way to share your 3 favorite anythings! Grab the template and button and link up below! If this is your first time linking up, check out our Favorite Things page for more details!

This month the Favorite Things Template has a fun Holiday theme! Make sure you download the new template to use when you link up! 

With the fun new template, you can link up any of your favorite... holiday anythings! It could be holiday recipes, crafts, activities you do with your students, books, songs, movies, etc. Have fun with it!! Here are a few of my favorite fun holiday read alouds! 

How Santa Got His Job is a fun read aloud and you can do a cute writing project with it! Sneezy the Snowman is just hilarious and my students always are laughing pretty hard by the end of it. Last but not least, A Chick 'n' Pug Christmas is my all-time favorite. I am partial to pugs (considering I have two of them) but the story teaches a wonderful lesson on giving to others and friendships. So sweet! 

Grab the template up above and link up below! Can't wait to see some of your favorite Holiday Anythings!

12 Free Math Websites!




Technology Thursday is a weekly linky dedicated to all things technology related. Check out our Tech Thursday page for details on how to link up!

As a teacher, I am always on the look out for great websites. Unfortunately, the trend lately is for the best of the best websites to cost more than my school budget and my teacher pocket book can handle. Many of the websites suck you in with a free TRIAL. This just makes me wish I had more money in my classroom budget! IF you can pay for quality websites, your students are stuck using just the 1 or 2 websites you have been able to afford.

Good News! There are still a few sites that are FREE! In all fairness, many of these sites offer a free portion of the website...BUT I will take what I can get!



Every one of these websites are worth exploring. They each have different features that make them great for the classroom. I am not going to review each site in this post since doing so would make this blog entry super loooooooong.

So start clicking! Begin exploring! Investigate which sites would work best for your students!














Do you use any of these sites already? Which are your favorite?


Link up below with your own Website or App recommendations, Tech Tips, Tutorials, or anything else tech-related! We can't wait to learn from you!
