Here are two of my old lessons from student teaching... so you may have to overlook my wordiness to find something useful in them. These lessons were modifications of the boring textbook we used.

We switched from D'Nealian to basic manuscript this year also because the slanted letters and tails were confusing for struggling kids. We use a specific language to describe the handwriting strokes...

I just purchased this book, and it is an excellent resource for learning how to use guided reading in your classroom. It has everything you need to know, from what guided reading is to specific examples for lessons and assessment. It is teacher-friendly and easy to read. The other guided reading book, by Fountas and Pinnell, is very good, but seemed less teacher-friendly when I compared them side by side. I also preferred this book because it is much cheaper! If you have a hard time remembering what prompts to use as you guide children (Does that make sense? Does it look right?, etc.) there are pages that can be reproduced and used as easy-reference cards. The book was written by two Reading Recovery teachers, so if you have RR in your school, you'll know that the information will jive with what your students are learning in RR. Consistency is important! -- Guided Reading: Making It Work

I got to participate in interviews last year (on the questioning end), so I will give as much advice as I can. I will list the questions we chose, but keep in mind, my fellow kindergarten teachers and I came up with these, and they could be completely different from questions you would get elsewhere! ...

This is an excellent resource for K-3 teachers! Find out how to set up and manage literacy centers that support a balanced literacy framework for Reading, Word Work, Listening, Research, Literature Response, Writing, and Poetry. Teaching strategies, detailed reading and writing activities, plus reproducible center signs and student pages are included. The authors connect the IRA/NCTE standards to strategies and activities teachers can use in the classroom. If you need literacy centers for students to work in independently while you do small guided reading or writing groups, this book will be a great help. It has everything you need to know to get standards-based literacy centers in place!

Teaching with Love and Logic : Taking Control of the Classroom
This book is especially great for dealing with power struggles. Take a look at the reviews -- I wrote the one entitled "reduces the stress level for you AND your students."

Cereal boxes make great book boxes for each student. At the beginning of the year, I ask parents to send in cereal boxes. It only takes 1-2 weeks to collect enough for each student. I then cut off the top of the box, and cut diagonally across each side to make it look like a magazine holder. I just stick on a name tag for each student. They could be covered in contact paper, but I find the kids like to read the outside of the box, and they generally last all year without reinforcement. If they do get crushed or worn, they can be replaced easily. At the end of the year, the boxes can be thrown away or sent home with students.

Kids LOVE using envelopes at the writing center. If you are paying bills online, you can reuse those envelopes companies send with your bill for returning your payment. They usually don't have any return addresses because they are designed for the payment coupon to show through the window. They work great. You could ask parents to save these for you, too.

Milk jugs are excellent for storing plastic shopping bags (the kind you get at Wal-Mart or the grocery store). Turn a clean gallon milk jug on its side and cut a hole approx. 3-4 inches in diameter. You can then stuff many plastic sacks inside, and use the milk jug as a dispenser. The sacks are great for kids who forget their backpack, or have extra items to take home that don't fit in their backpack.
