School Is Back In Session (and a new APP COMPANION PACKET)!

And breatheeeeee a big sigh of relief that the first day of school is OVER! I thought I was so prepared: my (8th) schedule was set, I’d ventured outside of my “room” without the school map a few times, I remembered some teachers’ names, and I was ready to go. Right?! 
 
Well, maybe not so much…
 
The day went quickly and it was fun to see all the kids excited about coming back to school. But I didn’t really accomplish anything other than going into some of the classrooms to at least put faces to names. I have to complete kindergarten screenings this week, so I will do the dry run of my schedule next week. Good thing this week is only 4 days!!!

 

It will get better. I did want to share something exciting that I finally finished up last week. If you remember my speech/language companion packet for the My PlayHome app, then you’ll love the latest addition to my TpT store: My PlayHome STORES Companion Packet! I received permission from the author to create this one too! This one has all the same pages as the original one, plus a few different ones. Take a peek at some of the pages below:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
It includes:
pg. 3-6: vocabulary for each store
pg. 7-10: 1 step directions separated by store
pg. 11-13: 2 step directions
pg. 14: 3 step directions
pg. 15-18: concepts that can be targeted by store

  3. I just won this pack! Thank you so much for the giveaway! I get so stuck in using apps like this for a reinforcement/reward that I forget how much language is here that I could be using it for. Thanks for coming up with the ideas for the packet.
