Pacing Guides and Report of Progress 2013-2014

The team of TK teachers and admin at Pittsburg Unified are AMAZING! I am truly blessed to work with these ladies and gents in creating a Transitional Kindergarten program for the students in Pittsburg, CA. We were able to spend 2 full days after school ended creating a math pacing guide with the Kindergarten Common Core standards and a very productive day with our district collaboration gurus Joanne and Deborah going over our Language Arts Pacing Guide before the end of this school year. As I start my planning for next school year I wanted to share these pacing guides and our Report of Progress that we use during our parent teacher conferences in the late fall and spring.

Time for Bloglovin and G+!

I'm sure you have heard that Google Reader is shutting down July 1 so it is time to find a new blog feed and thanks to my teacher facebook friends I found

It was super easy to import my Google Reader blogs within their groups into Bloglovin' and I get a daily email with my feeds. If you want the SUPER cute Bloglovin button

 on your own blog here are the directions from it's creator, Melissa Mazur at

For now you can still follow me with Friends Connect but I suggest you Follow my blog with Bloglovin just in case. Google says that Friends Connect is not going away, it is connected to Blogger Reader now, but it is not supported anymore so I'm sure it is only a matter of time before it goes in favor of G+

Speaking of G+ add me to your circles there too :)

I'm joining a great linky party hosed by Tori's Teacher Tips to find some great new (to me) blogs! Hop over and check out these blogs, many are having giveaways too :)
