Here are my teacher favorites!
A: App
Words with Friends! Hands down!
B: Book Character
Fancy Nancy!
C: Clip Art
Thistle Girl Designs is my favorite.
D: Dollar Spot Find
My book bins. We use them everyday! I will need to replace some again this summer. (Would the ones from RGS hold up better?)
We store our book boxes on the side counter at the end of the day. They are sitting on top of our testing folders which are cut up science fair boards! The folders are separated into groups which makes passing them out easier!
E: Essential To Start Day
Quiet time. I don't like to be bothered AT ALL during my getting ready routine. Good thing I am the only one awake!
F: Font
Maiandra GD, Tinker Toy, Miss Law Primer, Annoying Kettle and Felt.
G: Game
I love playing Rummikub with my family!
H: Holiday
Fourth of July. Love the fireworks!
I: Ice Cream
Ben and Jerry's Cake Batter Ice Cream! YUM!
J: Jewelry Piece
Used to be my Tiffany's heart bracelet but that has been replaced by my Brighton charm bracelet that I got from one of my kiddos this year!
K: Kid-ism
When I was younger a stray cat adopted my family. The little girl across the street always wanted to come over and see the cat.She used to say, "I wanna go see the coot kitty." And that is how my cat got its name, Coot.
L: Location To Travel
NEW YORK CITY! Though I would love to travel to Spain, Ireland, or Australia.
M: Management Technique
A place for everything and everything in its place. Or on my desk!
N: Nail Polish
I am boring. Plain old French manicures is what I like!
O: Open House Idea
Every year my kids draw a self portrait of themselves and I hang it on the bulletin board. As parents enter they have to guess which one is their child. Next year I think I am also going to have them write a paragraph about themselves!
P: Pinterest Find
Using a white eraser to erase permanent marker off of laminated surfaces easily! This has changed my life!
Q: Quote
You get what you get and you don't get upset!
I got a plaque one year from a friend that said, "I'm a teacher, you can't scare me!"
R: Read-Aloud
I loved reading the Lemony Snickett Series of Unfortunate Events to my fourth graders!
S: School Supply
FLAIR pens! Gotta have a stock pile!

Thank you for the shout-out! This linky is a great idea and I have to add it to my list of things to-do:) I like your book bins from the dollar store. The ones from RGS are expensive and I haven't splurged on those yet. Mine are the cardboard magazine holders and are holding up okay.
