1,000 followers!!!! Let's throw the house out of the window!!! HUGE GIVEAWAYYYYY to Celebrateeeee


I have more than 1,000 reasons to be thankful!! First I want to thank God for giving me the opportunity to share and create educational products! I also want to thank my husband for supporting me through this crazy journal! He has been nothing but supportive and understanding while I spend a lot of time creating my products :) And of course, I thank all of my followers! It has been a long journey for me and many things have changed since I started this adventure of being a seller and a blogger! I want to thank all of you for staying with me in my ups and downs during this journey.
I started a few years, but I didn't start strong or consistent in my store or my blog. I have tried the past year and half to really dedicate time and energy onto this little "relaxing and "me" time" activity and I have seen myself grow as a teacher and blogger :)

I want to celebrate as much as I can for this accomplishment and I want to start by giving back to those followers, because let's be honest, I wouldn't be here celebrating if it wasn't for you!!!
I started thinking this past month on how to celebrate this milestone, I have been thinking of this since I hit my 900 followers... So you might want to keep reading because THIS IS HUGEEEE!!! :)

Before I present to you the different giveaways, I wanted to do a short tutorial on how to follow me through email and how to follow this blog. I am not sure how many of you know how to do it, but I remember when I just started, I have a good friend who didn't really know how to do it.. So here they are :)

1. Type your email in the box and click"submit"

2. Once you click "submit" you will get a pop-up to confirm your subscription. Please type the code you see in the green letters and click on "Complete Subscription Request". EVERY SUBSCRIPTION GETS DIFFERENT CODES, SO WHATEVER YOU SEE BELOW WILL NOT BE THE SAME CODE YOU GET :)

3. Once you complete that, you'll be getting an email from FeedBurner with a link to confirm your subscription. If you don't see it, check your other folders or junk folder :) EASY PEASY!!!
You'll be getting an email with my next posts, so you don't miss a thing! :)


Here are the steps on how to follow me on this blog:
1.Click on "Join this Site"


2. They will ask you to log-in with an email account. 


3. Choose one of the options they are giving you. After you select one, they will ask you to type in your password once again.

Quick Post on Freebie for Place Value

Hello friends! :)
I am stopping by very fast just to show you my new freebie...
I am about to work with some students and I am going to start with some place value. I created this for both 1st and 2nd grade. The "Go Fish" game comes with both Spanish and English instructions. I also added a sheet with 4 different examples for students to work on and keep in their interactive Notebooks (these are up to number 999). There are about 30 sets of cards, all mixed with tens, hundredths, and a thousands place. If you have the little ones, just remove the cards you won't need and easy peasy! :)

Here is a preview of what comes in it :)


Grab this freebie now! Click HERE to take you to my TPT


Have a great rest of the week, stay tuned because there are BIG, HUGE surprises in a few weeks! If you are not my TPT follower yet, please DO... I have more surprises for YOU!!! (hint, hint)


Be sure to check other Freebies on TBA (Teaching Blog Addicts) for Friday September 11th, 2015.

New Syllables in SPANISH with Free Sample

Hello everyone!
I hope your weeks of school have been getting less crazy and those babies are getting a hold of your expectations and starting to settle down :)
On my side, I have been working very hard these past weeks on some great Spanish units for all ages, well not all ages, but for grades Prek-2nd...
A good friend of mine, asked me last year if I had something for syllables in Spanish and I didn't have anything back then... so it made me think we all need to either teach or review those fun syllables at some point in the school year. I remember when I was teaching 2nd grade, that was something I would review at the beginning of the school year and longer for those little babies who needed it as an intervention during RTI... So I made this product for both low and high levels...
I created one unit per syllable. Meaning I have one unit all for 2 syllables, 3 syllables, and one unit for both 4 & 5 syllables! I also created my first bundle! So if you would like to save some money, don't buy them individually, buy the bundle! :)

So here are some pictures to show you what I included!

1. All units include a section for puzzles! The low level has a picture that you put on top of another, and the high level includes the syllables to place in the blank space.


2. All units also include a booklet to make :) You can always storage this booklet in your interactive notebook (or journal like we used to call it a couple years ago). The low level has the syllables so they can cut and paste to make the word. The high level has blocks where they can write the syllables to make the word. Both levels have a sentence to complete to determine how many syllables the word has.



3. Last but not least, all units have cutting and paste squares to determine how many syllables the word has. These have been designed to put in their interactive notebooks. However, you can always staple them and make them mini-mini booklets :)


Would you like to taste the water before purchasing it? I though you'd never ask! ;)
This Sample it's a little long, JUST BECAUSE I decided to place all syllables (2-4 syllables) in it. I didn't think separating them by syllables would do any good!
Click HERE to download the Free Sample! :)




If you really liked the sample (which I really hope you did), please leave me some feedback! :) Hopefully you liked it so much that you want to purchase the units!

Click HERE to take you to the 2 syllable unit product

Click HERE to take you to the 3 syllable unit product

Click HERE to take you to the 4 & 5 syllable unit product


Now, what about if you need them all??? No problem, I have your back!!! :) I created a BUNDLE for all these three units, in that way you can save money! Each unit is $3.00, so that'll make $9.00 total if you buy each of them.. HOWEVER, if you buy the bundle, it costs $6.00! You are saving $3!!! That's a great DEAL!!! :)
Click HERE to take you to the BUNDLE

Well that's it for me today! I hope you have found this product helpful for you and your class!
I want to let you know that I'll be working on some special and unique product for my TPT followers!! My last freebie was sent when I had 500 followers and I am really close to hit my FIRST Milestone! So I am planning on "throwing the house out of the window" to celebrate this great accomplishment! :) Besides this EXCLUSIVE freebie that I will be working on, I'll be also giving away some good stuff you will NOT want to miss out! So stay tuned my friends!!! :)

Thank you for stopping by, I'll be back soon!!!
