Happy Monday Everyone!!! Last week was a toughie! We were back from break... PLUS, there was
Report Card Monday, followed by Conferences on Wednesday and Thursday and
Earth(Craft-Craziness) Friday.
Luckily, today started with a work day – which I
used to pull together our school’s writing night.
However, I just wanted to pop in and share something so
little I didn’t think big… Until, about 80% of parents mentioned how much they
LOVE it.
Each Monday I send home a “Cheat Sheet” for parents to hang
on their fridge. This list has their spelling words, teaching objective for
each subject area, and events for each day of the week. So many parents
mentioned how much this helped them juggle the craziness of having a 7 year
old.
The image below will take you to the Powerpoint so you
can modify it directly if it’s something you think you can use.
I have first and second graders in my class, so the
attachment has both grades.
The fonts are ones I’ve found in various corners of the
internet… so if the formatting looks a little kooky when you download it, just
change the fonts!
I hope your week is off to a great start!

LOVE your cheat sheet! I am definitely going to copy the idea & send one home next week for my students. Enjoy your week too! !! ! :)
This is very helpful! Thanks!!
I am teaching second grade for the first time and I wish i had this at the beginning of the year. My school is majority ELL with 47 different languages in our school. Its so hard giving homework and passing out informational flyers and our parents and kids can't even read what it says.I feel for them being here and not understanding alot. Maybe this would help. Sorry for venting. Thanks for this. Be Blessed.
Sorry forgot to add, I am a new follower. Please visit my blog when you have some time.

Days following breaks are alway crazy. Glad you got through them with enough sanity left over. The cheat sheet is such a great idea. I can totally see why parents love it! Thank you for offering it as an adaptable template.

Just wanted you to know that your blog button isn't linking back to your blog.
Hey Lisa and Beth,
I just wanted to pop in and say I love your stuff. . . Sorry it's taken me until now to say anything. I'm in the process of sorting through my files and putting everything together in the right place. I do have a suggestion for you. You do not have your names at the bottom of any of your pages. When trying to put them all together, I get lost and don't know if the page I found belongs to your stuff or someone else. When I create things I just put my name or my email or my blog name in the header then it automatically goes on each page except the title page because I can ask it not to put it there. Does that sound like something you could do? I'm just trying to help you and your followers be able to know when they are using your great products and that they have them all together.
