Flash Blizzard=Flash February Freebies!

There is nothing more crazy than Texas weather!

Yesterday we had snow and ice and today we have highs in the 60's.

**Talk about a flash blizzard**

This was just enough damage to declare a "snow day" and cancel school. 

I can't even begin to recall a time when this happened...so I figured we should celebrate!

 

I'm hoping you follow me on Instagram.

A few weeks ago I gave away a flash freebie and had a great response to it.

 So I've decided to try it again with all....yes ALL of my February units!

 

Here's how to play:

1. Follow me on Instagram (see above)

2. Be on the lookout for the freebie announcement

3. Follow the link provided to download the freebie.

4. Be quick!

5. Leave feedback

 

Here's what to be on the lookout for.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 The fun will start later today and continue over the next few days.

Hope you are able to snag something!

 

One Word...Instagram!

I have found a new love and its name is Instagram! I've had a personal account for about a year now and recently realized what the hype is all about. So, I ventured off and turned it into a personal/teaching shared account. If y'all haven't jumped on the bandwagon, now is the time! What is more fun than seeing what other teachers are doing in their rooms? It's a great new way to get ideas, comment/talk with other teacher bloggers, and get a peek inside some great teacher's classrooms!

Rachelle from What the Teacher Wants and Michelle at Apples and ABC's have come up with a genius idea.

Here's how it works:

1. Create an Instagram account and join in on the fun!

2. Post a picture on Tuesday of happenings in your classroom.

3. Tag the picture using the hashtag #teachertalktuesday.
