I will not longer be posting on this blog. I have a new blog over at http://www.kellymccown.com/ . I hope you go and check it out! Thank you for subscribing and reading this blog. I hope you enjoy all of the new products, teaching ideas, and blog posts on my new website.
Summer is in full swing! I'm keeping very busy with my two kids under two. I'm so sad I won't be able to attend the TPT conference today and tomorrow over on Disney property. We just have too much going on with over 2,000 miles driving in a car with babies, 4 birthdays, 2 round-trip 2 hour plane trips, 2 trips to the zoo, 1 wedding anniversary to celebrate and 1 wedding that I'm a bridesmaid for {yay!}. I'm sure there's more I left out but we are jam packed with lots, I've learned that you prioritize your family life first and then everything after. If you don't have time for it that's okay. Do it later or not at all! Life's too short to stress friends.
With that said, I have been busy with getting my new website up and running. The release date is TBA. Yesterday we went to take photos for http://www.kellymccown.com and it was great! My son {who is turning 2 YEARS OLD this week} also had his pictures taken. He had to warm up to be the smiling cutie.
School ended last week for my county public schools and now the summer is starting to get underway! I love resting, relaxing, and reflecting during the summer months on absolutely nothing and when I do what to think school again, I think about what teaching practices I need to work on for the following school year. One of my favorite times of the year is Back to School, even though it is busy and crazy at times. It's the time for setting the stage in your classroom and allowing all your students to get to know you and vice versa. I have a put a Back to School NO PREP Math Packet together for grades 5 to 8. I'm currently updating them for the 2016-2017 school year and will be posting a 3rd and 4th grade version on TPT by August 1st, 2016.
Here are the two most recent updated versions of the Back to School NO PREP Math Packets:
