Teaching continues to be an exciting and oftentimes tiring journey, but I would not trade this adventure for anything!
For what it’s worth, a few years back I left First Grade to find greener pastures! I went to Fourth Grade a couple of years and although I loved the kids, it simply wasn’t my calling. My niche is with the littles. I love having my own little group of firsties and our own little utopia in Room 603. Hence I moved back to First Grade. Well, here is the zinger! I had given away almost all of my go to resources and I was left with a hodge lodge loot for resources. I went bananas because I didn’t have my ‘old’ Onset and Rime activities and my ‘old’ Build a Word lessons, so I went hog wild and began creating supplementary resources for what I needed in my own first grade classroom. I ended up discovering Teachers Pay Teachers because of their wonderful online supplementary resources and the rest is history. I started sharing my supplementary resources with other like minded teachers…I will tell you I was a little crazy for about a year solid. Teacher by day and resource creator by night, but I needed these goodies in my own classroom. A teacher has to do what she has to do!
I am a multifaceted multitasked individual, and like most primary school teachers, I wear many hats! I am a wife, mother of three adult children, poodle mom, sorta kinda blogger and teacher. Just like you, my life is crazy busy, but I try to find balance daily.
If your life is also super hectic and you want to streamline teacher planning and preparation for weekly basal reading stories you have come to the right place. I know if you are like most K-2 teachers and me, both your computer and bookshelves are filled with resources that promised to make your life easier to only collect dust.

Since I create these resources for my own first grade classroom, I am offering these excellent supplementary resources to you for very nominal prices. I promise you are so going to NOT regret these purchases and your students are going to love you for it! Pinky promise!
