Kindergarten Theme 9: Focus Wall

I'm nearly finished with my Kindergarten Portable Focus Walls for Houghton Mifflin Reading.  I hope to be back in a bit with Theme 10.  I plan on banging out 1st grade through this week.  Once I complete the entire year, I will bundle the themes and place one copy for free in my store.  You can already scoop up the 2nd grade bundle created a few years ago.

Personal Focus Wall {Giveaway}

A year ago, I featured a post about my personal focus walls.  My students were given a copy each week to assist in their studies.  I've had the kids keep a copy in their office for use throughout the week and later decided the file would be as useful at home too so we transferred the personal focus walls to a folder.

Today I began working on cleaning up my store and combined all the 2nd grade focus walls in one file. If you follow along, you know that I've been working on Kindergarten focus walls for this upcoming year.  I will be looping back to 2nd grade, so I plan on creating 1st grade focus wall too.  I want to keep my walls consistent with the posters I use in class.

If you previously purchased my Comprehension Skill and Strategy Posters, you'll want to re-download the file.  The file has grown from 9 pages to 44 pages and includes all skills and strategies presented in my focus walls. 

Here is a preview...

If you are interested, I'd love to giveaway a copy!  Follow my store for an entry and share this giveaway for a bonus entry.  I'll announce a winner on this post tomorrow!

WINNER ANNOUNCED

Congrats Janine
