Fall Freebies and Back-To-School

 Hi, everyone! Have you been getting back into the swing of things at school? Maybe you are still enjoying your summer vacation!! I'm back full force now, and I cannot believe how fast the summer came and went. (Then again, it usually does...) I guess you could say I've spent my vacation doing things totally unrelated to school or teaching, like focusing on that never ending to-do list for around the house. Making progress, slowly but surely.
Nevertheless, once school starts back for me, it seems like its Fall (A VERY HOT ONE) instead of Summer. That brings me to the Fall Freebies I wanted to share today. 

    

 Maybe these items can help get your room off to a good start. I like to use the Class Library Check Out with my students so that they can enjoy the novels I have in my classroom library while I easily keep up with who has what checked out at the time. Another is one of my resources for organization-Classroom Organization Labels. We all love to start out the year organized, right? And the third item contains borders to use--Fall Harvest Frames. 

Each of the three above items is in my TpT store. So, if you head on over to grab these freebies, be sure to stock up on teaching resources for the remainder of the semester or year during the fabulous back to school sale!! 
Teachers Pay Teachers' Back to School Sale is August 18th and 19th, with tons of stores putting items on sale in addition to TpT's 10% off at checkout. I'll have the majority of my store on sale for 20% off too!

Borders/Backgrounds-- Freebie for You!

Hey all! Hope your October is lovely!

I meant to load these a long while back and forgot I had them.. HELLOOO! ;) Anyway, these are just a few backgrounds I drummed up one evening when creating my own agenda books for the week. I thought I may as well load them on Google docs and share with you guys!

Download these swirly corners frames/backgrounds for FREE--either from pic or google docs link above!

They work great for backgrounds in power points, smart notebooks, promethean flipcharts, pdfs, and all sorts of documents/files! 

Hope you enjoy!

Grab a Few Bright Borders...Free!

Bright Borders from Innovative Connections
I made these to go along with the pink, lime, and white paper lanterns I grabbed from the Target $1 Bins!!! Plus, I had to make "something" on my Bamboo Create! Hope you like! I'm not sure if I'll load to TpT or not--grab them up while you can!
FOR WHATEVER REASON, the bottom pic will not link to the google doc but above title and cover thumb below work!

6 PNG Files: Borders/Frames

This is the first set of borders I've actually loaded for others to use. I hope you can use them! Included in the zip file are the individual PNG files and the Terms of Use.

I'd love to know how they turn out, should you decide to use them! :) 

Enjoy,
