Exciting News and a Giveaway!

Friends.
I have a very exciting announcement to make! 
I have decided to team up with some of my very best first grade buddies to write for a collaborative blog! 
That means ONE blog with TONS of great ideas from several super awesome First Grade teachers!

One thing I L-O-V-E about this blog, is you will know exactly what to expect each day of the week.  For every day, there is a blogging theme.  Check them out! 



I'm SO excited to get started on this new adventure, and am thrilled to invite you along for the ride.  Let's celebrate with a little giveaway!
You can win my The Easter Story:  Hosanna, Jesus! 

This is a resource I created to use in my own classroom to help my first graders understand the events of Holy Week and Easter Sunday.  Each day of Holy Week is presented as a chapter in a story told from the point of view of a child named Benjamin.  He observes the different events of Holy Week as they happen and tries to make sense of what he sees happening throughout the week.  Through his point of view, the children will come to understand the meaning of Easter. 
 I do not copy the book for each child, but I project it in its PDF form onto the SMARTBoard.  After reading the days' passage, we add the corresponding picture and scripture passage to our lapbooks.  
Once we complete the story, the children make the He Has Risen craft. 

You can enter the rafflecopter below for your chance to win this amazing resource!
