VA is for Bloggers – Southern Hospitality FREEBIE Blog Hop!!

Virginia is for Lovers Bloggers! 
A lovely group of Virginia bloggers would like to help usher in the new school year by extending a bit of southern hospitality. You can follow along the blog hop to visit 20+ Virginia teacher blogs for terrific teaching tips and fun freebies to help get your new school year off to a great start!

My freebie is Monkey’s Digraph Party!

I found these adorable monkey plates at Dollar Tree (or you can find other zoo animal plates to use with your game).  Simply attach the party hats to your plates!

Feed the monkeys digraph ice cream cones for their party.  I’ve included both beginning and ending digraphs.

I like to store my station activities in zipper bags (so easy for little fingers)… but envelopes work great too!  

Click HERE to grab the game from my TpT store!  

 
I’d love for you to follow me and my store, if you do!! Be sure to come back here to hop to the next freebie!

Oh, before you leave… you may want to enter this little giveaway for an item of your choice from my TpT store!!  I’ll pick 2 winners!  Congrats to Donna V. for winning my Heidi Songs giveaway!!!
a Rafflecopter giveaway



The next stop on the hop is…

    These might be the cutest plates ever invented. And then even more so because you attached party hats to them. I am going to have to think of a way to use these adorable plates in my classroom with my fourth graders because this is just too cute. Looks like I'm going to the Dollar Tree tomorrow!!!

    And thanks for the button for the hop, Mrs. Stamp!! 🙂

    I should say water. But if I'm being truly honest it's probably diet DP. :/ 😉

    I am off to the Dollar Tree to look for the Monkey Plates. My favorite drink at school is plain old water. But for a treat a nice glass of wine with dinner is special.

    My favorite 'go-to' drink is Sweet Tea, but I'm a devoted diet Coke drinker, too. Wishing for the perfect sweet tea recipe that never fails!!! Guess I'm just in the wrong part of the South to have sweet tea running through my veins, but I'm working on it.

  • Jessica Hamilton August 4, 2013 at 7:38 PM

    This freebie is adorable!! But then again, I love monkeys! =) Thank you so much for all of your hard work with this hop! I am so happy to be a part of it!.

    I am your newest follower and my favorite drink: Sweet Tea of course! My coworkers poke fun of me because instead of stopping for a cup of coffee on the way to school, I stop for McDonald's Sweet Tea! lol

    I'm such a boring drinker…my favorite is ice water, unless there are chocolate chip cookies, then cold milk:-)
    LOVE the freebie. Thank you!!!

    My favorites are iced tea and Chardonnay, but I haven't had the latter in a year, ever since I got pregnant and delivered my sweetest little girl!

    Super cute freebie! I love it and will go hunt down those monkey plates!

    I am not a big "drinker" of anything but water, but when I want something other than water, I go for Chick-fil-a lemonade. Yummy!
