Texas TEKS I Can Statement Objectives!

UPDATE!
The new Math TEKS for 2014-2015 have been added just in case you and your friends are getting a jump on things!
 
I have been busy to say the least. I have been working on the summer "to do" list and making some good progress. One thing I had on my list last year was to type up all of the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills Statements into "I Can" statements and have them ready to go for the school year. Last year I never quite got around to it. This summer has been different. I have made myself complete the most important things on my list. I am so excited that this is finally crossed off my list and in this respect I am ready for a new year!
All I have to do now is decide what pocket chart I am going to put these in and print, cut and laminate and I will be ready for a year of posted objectives. And they are all there, every single cotton pickin' one of those objectives!
Language Arts
Mathematics
Science
Social Studies
Health
PE
Art
Music
Theatre
Technology
I have even made nifty little pockets for each subject that I can staple up on my objective board and hold each set of subject objectives so that I can dash in on Monday morning and find my current objectives and post them in a quick, fast minute before any "walk through" takes place! I am thrilled to not have to think or worry about having the current objective up when needed or typing them out one by one on lesson planning night! And with these little clip on stars, you can let those "objective detectives" know exactly where you are on each objective by clipping these right next to each standard. How fun is that?
These objectives fit perfectly in a scheduling pocket chart or two Target Dollar Spot pocket charts! You may be able to post all of your objectives in one Dollar Spot pocket chart if you do not have to post every subject! 
Got ya covered even if you have to tell the "objective detectives" just exactly "how" you will accomplish those goals too! Just type in the editable field and let them know how all this teaching magic is going to happen! So, if you are like me and you want to cross this off your list and you need more information just click on the picture!
 
Until next time!

Just LOVE Science!

Hey Science Friends,
Did you know that Google Reader was going away and soon? How in the world are you going to stay connected to your favorite blogs without skipping a beat?  This poses a problem for someone like me. I need to be in touch and at all times with my favorite inspirational blogs. To me, the connections that I have made over the years blogging have been so important to me as a teacher and what takes place in the classroom and especially during SCIENCE. And to make matters worse, I don't always like change even though change is sometimes what is needed. Funny thing is that I made the change and signed up for Bloglovin' and imported all of the blogs I currently follow and it was actually simple and quick and just painless. What I have discovered is that I actually like reading my favorite blogs through Bloglovin' much better. I like the look and organization of it all. So, now I am connected and ready for a new year with all my favorite teacher blogs all in one little place. So, what are you waiting for? Join Bloglovin' today and don't delay. Because you know you sure don't want to miss all the fun and freebies as we gear up for a new year!

What's Up With The Weather?

Hey Science Friends,
I have been out and about watching the weather! And as I was running around I cam across a few cute things that I had to have for some weather watching fun this coming year. You know reporting the weather is always a lot more fun if you have a cute outfit to wear, right? I knew it! I found this Backyard Explorer vest at Dollar Tree right along with the hat and glasses and before you knew it a Weather Reporter outfit was born. Just a Sharpie and a few little embellishments and we are ready to go! It was super easy and didn't take long! Now we are ready for a year of observing, recording and describing the weather!
