The Primary Chalkboard Advent Calendar Kickoff!

Howdy ya'll!  It's Mr. Greg from The Kindergarten Smorgasboard!  I am super excited to get to kick our The Primary Chalkboard's Advent calendar!

We are celebrating with a treat every day!  Each day one of our authors/bloggers will offer a special treat JUST FOR THAT DAY!   Make sure you visit daily to get your treat!




My surprise is a fun letter recognition freebie!

My freebie was inspired by these cute bags from Target!  


These bags are also my fresh idea for ya!  Each holiday/season, I scour Target, The Dollar Tree and Dollar General for fun buckets or bags.  I use these bags and buckets to store our center activities.  These are not only cute and fun, but my students love the bags and they make centers just that much more attractive and engaging.

Engaged=less behavior challenges!!

Don't forget to stop by each day for your Advent surprise!





Pencil Management System

Howdy folks!  It's ME!  Mr. Greg from Smedley's Smorgasboard of Kindergarten!  People, I am so excited to be blogging on The Primary Chalkboard!  Seriously, I'm not worthy!

Today I'm sharing how I manage pencils in my kindergarten classroom.  It's a system that means I don't have to sharpen pencils during the week.  It saves me time (and saves me hand cramps!) and allows my kindergarteners to be responsible for their pencils and helps them solve problems!


Head over to my blog to see how we wrangle the pencils!   And share your pencil tips!
