Happy New Year! We hope you had a restful and joyful winter break. As you prepare to welcome your students back to the classroom, we’re excited to share some activities designed to make the transition fun, engaging, and meaningful! Make sure to read until the end for a fun little freebie! 1. Kick off the new year by helping your students reconnect with a Find Someone Who activity and Winter Break Superlatives! These activities are sure to get your kids laughing and bonding as they nominate themselves for fun awards like “Most Time with Friends” or “Coolest New Hobby or Skill” 2. Make some mini booklets to reflect on Winter Break and the New Year! This independent activity is perfect for guiding your students through reflecting on their winter break and setting New Year’s goals. With two differentiated versions, it’s easy to modify for various needs and skill levels. 3. Need something engaging for early finishers or morning work? We've created winter-themed word activities like a word scramble, word pyramid, word search, and code breaker. These fun challenges will keep your students entertained while stimulating their brains! These resources are perfect for easing back into the school routine while fostering creativity, connection, and critical thinking. Grab them separately or bundled for a discount!

We are happy to send you the Find Someone Who...page that's the perfect for that first day back.

Hi teachers, It is officially the last week before spring break… and the energy is telling us everything we need to know. The weather has been all over the place here in Southern California, routines are feeling a little looser, and let’s just say the social dynamics in a 5th grade classroom are thriving right now. It’s that time of year. Spring break is well-earned. Even so, we’ve got a really meaningful (and engaging) week ahead: 💜 Women’s History Month + Symbolism We’re wrapping up our...
Hi everyone, It happened again... dance-parenting is taking over our lives! We missed last week's email because we were both at a dance competition just minutes away from Disneyland. Unfortunately, we were surrounded by rhinestones, hairspray, and loud music rather than Mickey, the scent of churros, and Pirates of the Caribbean. But hey… it’s all for the kids, right? Here’s what’s happening in our planbook this week on the Top Floor. Wrapping Up the American Revolution We are finishing up our...
Hey friends, First, a quick apology for missing last weekend’s email. We were fully immersed in dance parent life and, if you know… you know. Sometimes it feels like we are juggling teaching, creating, and parenting all at once. Last weekend, dance won. Now, back to our planbook! Women's History Month! March means Women’s History Month, and we keep this one intentionally low prep. This doesn’t have to be a big, time-consuming unit to make an impact. We just share one or two biographies a day...
