It's time for Throwback Thursday with Cara!! I've only been blogging for about 4 months, so I can't throwback TOO far, but here's a fun post about what I do with my kiddos who finish early....or as a fun activity to do while I'm working with groups! :)

I'm Finished! What Can I Do?!
Looking for an idea to do for your kiddos who finish first? I can't
take credit for this idea...one of my awesome teammates thought of this
one! What a super idea! Each child gets their own envelope. Each of
them has a different activity that they can work on when they are
finished. You can put things like flashcards, an index card with words
they need to practice, sentences that need fixing, or even special cards
like extra computer time! ~ always a hit :), practice tying your shoes,
or choose a book to read from the "teacher's shelf." I switch it up a
lot so my kiddos are always surprised by what they find in their
envelope. They LOVE it!!!!

I plan on using this again this coming year. I'm hoping to find some prettier envelopes to use though!!
Go link up with Cara for your Throwback! :)
What a super cute idea for differentiation! Love it!

Fantastic idea for differentiation! Especially love the "practice tying shoes" one - I will be using that for sure!
