Even More 2019 Fun Freebies & Books for Back to School! (Part Two)

A lot of new back to school books hit the shelves this year! Welcome to my latest back to school book reviews… and even more free booktivities… and another chance to win the title of your choice!

Want to win one of these great books for your classroom? Like and leave a comment on my Facebook Page Post! One random winner will be chosen on Wednesday, September 4th.


Let’s start with the book on the top of everyone’s list this year...

The Pigeon HAS to Go to School! By Mo Willems

Pigeon is not on board with this ABC and 123 thing… but his hesitation melts away when he finds out school busses are involved! :) Pigeon’s latest adventure is sure to delight both old and new fans.

Help Pigeon get to school with this fun path game freebie! 4 different ways to play, including: addition/subtraction practice, number recognition and subitizing!


 Pirates Don’t Go to Kindergarten! By Lisa Robinson

Pigeon isn’t the only one reluctant to go to school. This preschool pirate doesn’t want to jump ship and switch classrooms! Can she ever be convinced to join the kindergarten crew?

Sorry, Grown-Ups, You Can’t Go to School! By Christina Geist

These adults wish they could wear cool new shoes and go back to school. Sorry grown-ups, but school is just for kids and teachers!

I think this book would be SO FUN to read if you invite caregivers into the classroom on the first day of school! Encourage families to learn more about each other with this fun interview activity:


Clothesline Clues to the First Day of School by Kathryn Heiling and Deborah Hembrook


I am SO HAPPY we are getting another book in this series! These books are the best for teaching inferencing. Seriously, you must buy Clothesline Clues to Jobs People Do for community helpers later in the school year!

Help your new students become familiar with their classroom and school with these fun free scavenger hunts! There’s also a bonus classroom riddles activity for independent readers.


Back to School by Maya Ajmera and John D. Ivanko


Learn more about children going back to school around the world with this read-aloud! I just love the photographs and opportunity to compare/contrast.

If Animals Went to School by Ann Whitford Paul


Another adorable book in this sweet series! Perfect for preschoolers.

Encourage children to imagine what would happen if their favorite animal came to school with this free class book:


Even Monsters Go to School by Lisa Wheeler


Seems like everyone gets to go to school (but not grown-ups!) From yetis to giants to aliens, little monsters everywhere are preparing for a new year, too.

Help those little monsters get ready by packing their backpack with this fun, free craftivity! This is a good one for the bulletin board.


When it’s lunch, make sure those monsters have something to munch… lest you end up on the menu!

    As stated by Stanford Medical, It's really the SINGLE reason women in this country live 10 years more and weigh on average 19 kilos less than us.

    (And realistically, it has totally NOTHING to do with genetics or some secret-exercise and absolutely EVERYTHING to related to "how" they eat.)

    BTW, What I said is "HOW", and not "what"...

There's No Place Like Space: Outer Space Adventures & Friday Freebie

TGIF!!!  What a week!  I absolutely adored seeing my kiddos learn about space, but this week was a toughie.  Sick and tired kiddos do not make for a happy class.  Everything kept going the wrong way: food spilled on the newly cleaned carpets, bloody noses on the newly cleaned carpets, bathroom accidents during the middle of centers, pink-eye working its' way around the room, forgotten materials at home, the printer at FedEx Office went haywire and messed up my play-doh mats, the copy machine at work broke, I broke the side mirror of my car coming out of the garage... Yikes!  I was seriously scared to leave my house this morning!  :)  So here's hoping the stars re-align this weekend and my class comes back rockin' and rollin' and ready to learn on Monday! With all that being said, it was still a fun and jam-packed week.  I loved overhearing one of my kiddos tell his parent, "Mom, did you know the sun is ACTUALLY a star?!?!"  And I got to...

Food, Health and Hygiene Fun & TWO Friday Freebies!

My first ever parent teacher conferences are over and I survived! They actually went really well. Although, as many of my parents said, I talk to them so much anyways it wasn't like they were hearing anything new. What can I say? I'm so proud of their kiddos and constantly have to let them know about it! :) Our theme this week was all about Food and Health with a little bit of Hygiene. Overall the week went a lot more smoothly than I expected, being that I ran around like a chicken with my head cut off finalising details for conferences, putting together invitations for Pies with Grandparents next week, and trying to pick a holiday song for our class to sing at the Holiday Program because, as the office keeps kindly reminding us, Christmas is JUST AROUND THE CORNER. Makes me exhausted just remembering! Anyways, here's a look at some of the fun art, writing center, dramatic play, math and science stuff we did this week! Art: Vegetable Soup Stamping ...
