We Teach So Hard…Episode 9: The Lies Teachers Believe Series, Lie #2 – Nice Girls Don’t Speak Up

 

Girl! Shut your mouth! Ever have anyone tell you that? Nice girls don’t talk politics. Nice girls don’t stand up when they’re being abused by employers. Nice girls don’t speak up when it’s wrong for kids. Seriously? Speaking up doesn’t mean you’re a “B—-!” Come laugh, cry, and examine why women teachers believe those lies about “nice girls.”

FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON – “October Sight Word Mats”

by Kindergarten is Grrreat

Pre-Kindergarten – 1st Grade

 

 

Looking for an easy word work station? Look no further! These sight word mats are perfect for October!

Simply print out these mats, add the materials, and provide students with the list of sight words they need to practice.

I love to give my students flash cards and they can work on one word at a time.

The mats are great because they can be used with any word, students just build the word on the mat!

Mats for: wikki stix, magnetic letters, play-doh
