See Ya! Google Reader and Hello Feedly

2013-04-22T07:00:00.000-04:00

A few years ago I happened to come across a new tool to keep up with all of the blogs that I love. Many of you are aware that Google Reader will no longer be available come this summer. This could be your solution. It took all of my Google Reader blogs I follow and subscribe to and automatically imported them for me. For me, now when I want to catch up, I use Feedly.

You can mark articles for reading later, or mark as read. When clicking on a new blog post, no new windows open. Rather, a stand out article opens right in the page and makes for simple getting back to the other posts I haven't read yet. This is pretty similar to how Pinterest works.

You can create categories for your blogs - for example, I have a set of Kindergarten blogs that can be found in one click.

I can still see all the info I want about who wrote it, when they wrote it and be able to share it. All it takes to visit the actual post is to click on the title. A reminder for me to head on over and comment!

You might want to check Feedly out if you're looking for a teacher-friendly and picture full solution to reading lots of blogs! You know we've got your back here at TBA. We receive nothing for promoting them, it just happens to be what I {Leslie} personally use to make my time reading blogs efficient. Hope it can help you keep up with your favorites.

Teach Junkie - A Teacher Feature Loaded With Freebies

2013-04-20T07:00:00.001-04:00

Being a teach junkie isn't just what I do, it's who I am. I am the official teach junkie and collect ideas, free downloads and teaching ideas to save you time and effort. Teach Junkie is the sister site of TBA that allows any PreK-Grade 5 grade range teacher (bloggers too) to contribute their ideas to share with others.

Teach Junkie is already hopping with ideas in all grade levels and has links and ideas to teach math, ela, holidays and more. We've got over 48 categories for you to find ideas and goodies and more will be added as you join in and share your ideas!

You'll get a free collection of classroom posters as a thank you gift for becoming a subscriber.

6 Classroom Posters

All in One Place

My goal for Teach Junkie is to save you time by providing one place for teachers to share ideas and find ideas! I get so much joy from sharing the awesome work that teachers do, so I've got your back and will be excited to host your ideas in organized categories where people who are looking for them can find them with ease. Anyone can share a photo and a tip - it's that simple once you're registered!

Calling All Teacher Bloggers

Bloggers, I invite you to join in by picking your great ideas you share on your blog and share it with the Teach Junkie community. Your content can't be cut n' paste, nor just a "this is something new I made" post, but it can link back to your blog post if you have more that you want to share. You can upload tips, tutorials, activities or diy-creative photo reels. We've got some guidelines in place to help your posts be received the best and to also get the most spotlight!

Plus, I love to highlight your ideas! I create collections of your tips that you share on Teach Junkie and feature favorites. Or you can always join in on the fun every Tuesday in our weekly event!

Here are some of my favorite collections to date:

42 Free Teacher Fonts

Fonts can be so helpful in creating classroom worksheets, activities fun and unique! Many teachers love making their own so I've collected 42 free fonts all in one place that were created by teachers to help make your classroom activities fun and add just the right touch.

28 Simple Mother's Day Crafts and Gift Ideas

Mother’s Day activities are perfect for this time of year so use these 28 Mother’s Day crafts, gifts and poems for Mother’s Day to make it a special occasion. You’ve got an audience of one special lady to create for and we know that she’ll treasure such precious gifts from little hands.

40 Roll & Cover Cool Math Bump Games

Roll and cover games for math are a smash hit for helping students practice addition, subtraction, number sense and multiplication. Cool math games like all of these compiled here are dice games that help practice addition and subtraction with fun themes. You’ll find themed games by character, season and inspiring variations on this classic game - enough to cover you for the whole year!

So who is this original Teach Junkie? I am Leslie, the author of KindergartenWorks and the Co-Founder of TBA. If you're a creative teacher who likes to share, then I invite you to be a teach junkie too!

Freebie Friday!
We have an expression at work, PAYDAY FRIDAY! All of us seasoned teachers with savings and the new teachers living paycheck to paycheck, we all say the same thing....Payday Friday. It is kind of like a National Holiday at our school, someone is collecting for a baby shower ~ can I pay you on Payday Friday? Going together to get our nails done ~ let's go on Payday Friday! Dinner and the movies with our spouses ~ Payday Friday my friend!
But here at TBA it is just the opposite, you never have to wait until Payday Friday.....it's Fun Friday, Freebie Friday, every Friday! Teachers spend enough of their own money for school, we're so glad that we can help you save a little of your money...you know for dinner and the movies ;)

To celebrate the fun resource community that you have helped make TBA become, we want to be sure to have your back and offer a free download (or several hundred) to help you have the ultimate resource collection.

This is your personal invitation to join us!

What's the celebration?

It's called the Ultimate Freebie Celebration - aka free download central!

When: You can grab your free download (or as many as you want) on Friday April 5th
Where: Every free download will be linked right here from TBA

(PreK-K) PreKindergarten Activities - Kindergarten Worksheets

(1-2) First Grade Activities - 2nd Grade Lesson Plans

(3-4) 3rd Grade Worksheets - Fourth Grade Freebies

(5-6) Fifth Grade Free Downloads - 6th Grade Lessons

You'll find just the right amazing free download (or a bunch) since we will be hosting links to freebies in math, language arts/ela, science, social studies and general classroom.

How Can You Attend?

Bring your freebies and take some home on April 5th - Link up your teacher-created freebies and gather as many as you want! You'll find it easy to find free downloads for your grade level!

If you want to share your free download(s)?

{No exceptions. No limit on number of submissions.}

The Days Are Getting Longer and Longer, Need a Freebie?

2013-03-22T06:00:00.000-04:00

My favorite expression is "The years may fly by, but some days are longer than others!" It rolls over and over in my mind around 2pm every Spring day! If the days are seeming longer and longer to you, or if Spring Fever has hit, you probably need a freebie or two by now!!

Last week was terrific once again! You linked up 98 freebies for teachers everywhere! Thank you!

Our featured item this week comes from three terrific ladies, Stephany, Stephanie and Kathi at Primary Possibilities!
They have two freebies for you!

A free font!

AND...a Nonsense Word Fluency pack!

Thank you Ladies!
