June is Already Here? What Have I Been Doing...

Well, CURRENTLY, I am participating in a fab link up by Farley's Oh' Boy Fourth Grade! 
I first read a "Currently" post on Jana's blog, Thinking Out Loud (Thanks for linking up all these times Jana-:)), and have read them the last several times she's posted. I thought they were pretty cool! 
What a great post and link up to do! Swing by to holler at Farley and see what others are "currently" up to---It's pretty neat to read up on bloggers that we all "stalk!" I find there are lots of neat little things to be learned and find I have many things in common with others too! So, head over and show Farley some love!


Now, here's my "Currently" for June!

Thanks to FARLEY for doing the Currently Link Up! 

So, my readers, head over and see what all of your blogger buds are up to these hot summer days...YES, stinkin' HOT in MS! 

Have a great rest of the week! I better be wined and dined tomorrow! Our 3rd Wedding Anniversary...WHERE DOES THE TIME GO???

Add Flavor to Your Class Writing Adventures

Everyone likes to have another stash of writing prompts on hand, right?
After recently uploading Part 2 of my Writing Adventures Task Cards, I thought I would share with you the previews for each, just in case you are not a store follower at TpT or haven't visited lately! Both sets (Part 1 and Part 2) contain 36 prompt cards and Part 2 also contains an additional size of the same prompts, each prompt on its own full sized page to project on your activboard or to print for centers, etc. 

Download the previews straight from Google Docs by clicking the images below!

If you are interested in the full versions, click here for Part 1 and Part 2!

Reasons for Using Ransom Writing Prompts?

They make perfect...

Bellringers

Exit Slips

Writing Centers

Challenge Activities

Fast Finisher Enrichments

and on and on and on...

NOT TO MENTION, they open minds and get imaginations flowing!

I'll email a set for free to the first 3 followers that leave a comment telling me how they can incorporate these prompt cards into their lessons! 


Just be sure to leave an email for me to send them to and if you'd like Part 1 or Part 2.....
I'd also love to hear your unique strategies for incorporating journal writing or other writing activities in your class!
