I am SO SO SO SO excited about this website I just came across! It offers 3 different monogram designs in several different color options for FREE!
I had a few glitches on a Mac when I first tried to make mine, but then I noticed in the comments that people recommended using Adobe Acrobat instead of Preview on a Mac. This solved my problem and POOF, I now have a super cute monogram cover for one of my binders at school.
Happy Sunday, indeed!
It’s true…IEP season is nearly upon us. And with that comes lots of meetings and LOTS of paperwork. It probably won’t surprise you to know, but the thing I hate most about IEP’s is writing goals. Sure, I’ve been taught probably 10 different times how to write measurable, strong IEP goals, but for some reason it never stuck.
So, I took matters into my own hands, read a few articles, and made myself a “cheat book.” This is the result! I learned so much in the process and I hope that this can also help you as well.
Social and emotional skills goals can be difficult – we’re not measuring words per minute, correct speech sounds, or math facts. Human behavior as a whole tends to be more subjective than many other skills students learn in school. However, it is possible to write great social emotional goals for students.
This guide contains the following:
– 5 tips to help you write more measurable, observable, legally strong goals to help your students
– description and examples of the 2 major social-emotional goal types
– formula with blanks which you can fill in to painlessly create customized goals for a variety of student needs
– lots of examples to save you time and sanity!
Holy cow…I found this recipe on Pinterest today and COULDN’T resist posting it. If I had everything in my house I needed, I’d be making it right now….yes…on a Sunday night! I’m pretty sure my mom used to make this with me as a child. If I remember correctly, it can kinda smell a bit strange (I mean, it’s basically glue!), so maybe add a drop of an essential oil or vanilla extract or something and see if it smells better?
This is going to be awesome for my kids that use putty to calm down or for some of my kiddos with sensory needs. A tiny silly putty egg just is NOT enough for them!
Recipe Update: it calls for 1/4 cup of water several times. I’ve used about a 3/4 full 1/4 cup measure and that worked much better!
