It burned a hole in my pocket...

I wonnnnn - my first giveaway! A $15 Target gift card. I'm not gonna lie, it was burning a hole in my pocket. ha ha I had to hurry out and spend it! Here is what I bought:


My Target FINALLY had the letter and number stamps AND mini pocket charts. Yay! Paired with Fran's awesome printables {here} - I've got myself some new work stations. And, I may or may not have spent more than I won...but who cares? It was too good to pass up! *wink, wink* I had gotten some dip trays at the Dollar Tree earlier in the summer and I created these...

I used some of Fran's work mats and adapted them to make a "Sorting by Color" tray. Won't the foam blocks work great? Squeal!
Here are a few other trays I put together. Holy cow - I just LOVE the Dollar Tree and dollar section @ Target. 
I laminated the "I have ___" cards and bound them using a book ring. I plan on having students use vis a vis markers to fill them out after they have sorted their money. Hello NEW math work station (and for a dollar - whoo hoo). Below, students will sort by size using the 3 part dip tray.
Thanks Mrs. Lazenby for my new goodies. Happy dollar shopping! ~Miss E

Yay!! :) I'm so glad you were able to find some goodies and even if you had won $100 you probably would have over spent anyways, at least I know I always do!! :)
