My kids love to "Roll It, Roll It!!!

So my kids have really been enjoying my Roll and Write Centers this year.  I put a new one in the writing center at least every month, sometimes twice!!   I thought it would be great to bundle them all into one MEGA bundle for writing fun throughout the year!!!  12 writing centers for half the price!!!

Let It Snow!!!

       We've been having a little snow lately and it reminded of a really cute activity we did a couple weeks ago.  This activity has been done by many teachers--originally by Deanna Jump.  This was just one of the many really adorable snowglobes.
