Introducing the decodable sentence building bundle!

This bundle is designed for use in kindergarten or first grade. Each worksheet has an image to color, a set of words to cut out and glue to complete the sentence, and lines to write the sentence.

I love these decodable sentence building worksheets because they provide students with writing, reading, cutting, coloring, and a gluing task. Each worksheet is formatted the same, so teach your students the directions once, and they can complete the task in the future!

Students will work on decoding, sentence structure, handwriting, writing, fine motor, AND high-frequency words. That’s pretty good, am I right?!

These worksheets would be great for small groups, extended practice, whole group review, or literacy centers. Students could get extra training in areas they need more exposure to so they master that skill area.

CVC words are some of the first words that students learn to read because they tend to follow the phonetic rules, can be sounded out in three steps, and always have a short vowel sound. Students will also get fine motor practice with cutting, coloring, and gluing to complete the worksheet.

Finding the time/energy to exercise is a big strug Finding the time/energy to exercise is a big struggle for me.

When I was first teaching, I used to play tennis and do zumba classes and things after school. I had that social accountability of other people being there. 

Nowadays, I’m pretty good with going to the gym on a weekend if some of my family members are there. 

But I really struggle to do exercise on my own. I just don’t have the motivation! 

The most I can manage is my morning walk sometimes. 

Does anyone else struggle with this? Knowing that you need to exercise but just not doing it!

Thinking of mentor texts as blueprints...I just lo Thinking of mentor texts as blueprints...I just love the analogy!

It’s true that mentor texts:
• serve as an example for students. 
• help students to try out new strategies and formats. 
• allow students to make powerful connections to their own lives.

Do you use enough effective mentor texts in your writing lessons? 

This is your reminder because they really help the writing process! Also, a great read aloud is the perfect lesson warmup, right? 🙌🏻

What mentor texts are you currently reading with students?

Hiring help in my business has been one of the bes Hiring help in my business has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! Hands-down!

Time is such a precious thing and hiring out tasks in my business has freed up so much time for me to focus on the profitable things and the enjoyable things.

This week on the terrific teacherpreneur podcast, I chat all about my last two years of hiring help in the biz. 

I talk about the ups and the downs and all of the intricacies. I talk about how exactly I hire people and what I’ve hired out. 

I really hope you enjoy the episode! Will you be listening?

Guess what? You DON’T have to market the upcomin Guess what? You DON’T have to market the upcoming TpT sale!

Yep, I mean it! 😱

This week on the podcast and in my series of reels, I’ve been sharing tips about the best way to effectively market the TpT site-wide sale. 

However, what if you are really burnt out from full-time teaching right now? What if you’ve got a lot going on in your personal life? 

The TpT sale might be the last thing on your mind and you might not be remotely interested in thinking about it right now. 

You might not have the time or energy. And that’s OK! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

If you don’t end up talking about the sale on social media or to your email list, that’s fine. Sometimes life gets busy.

I just want to give you permission to do nothing, if you need to. There’s so much pressure when it comes to running a TpT business.

Tell me below, did you need to hear this? Are things busy and hectic in your life right now? 💗

There are so many pros and cons when it comes to s There are so many pros and cons when it comes to seasonal resources! 

In this week’s episode of The Terrific Teacherpreneur podcast, I discuss the pros! 

This includes the fact that seasonal resources are fun to make and buyers really love them! 

But in the episode, I also talk about the cons, which is the fact that seasonal resources don’t sell the rest of the year and require expert timing when it comes to product creation and marketing. 

Have you listened to this week’s podcast episode yet? If not, will you be listening soon? 🙂

Hey there! It’s been a while since I introduced Hey there!

It’s been a while since I introduced myself to my new followers so I thought I’d share a little bit about me 🙂

My name is Alex and I live in sunny Queensland, Australia. ☀️ (I’m originally from the UK though, so the Brit accent is still going strong)!

I’m a full time TpT seller and I love to use this account to share tips and advice to help other sellers grow their stores!

When I’m not working on my biz, I love spending time with my hubby Dale and my family in general - my mum, sister and I are very close. My sister had a baby and now he’s been added to the crew and tags along on shopping trips and such 😅

You can also catch me watching Netflix and eating chocolate most days (or going on walks/going to the gym to compensate) 😅

I’d love to get to know you! Tell me in the comments where you’re from!

Bundles are where the money is! If you haven’t Bundles are where the money is!

If you haven’t already listened to this week’s podcast episode, I definitely recommend tuning into The Terrific Teacherpreneur this week. 

I’m talking all about bundles, ya know…the thing that you should be doing much more of if you want to increase your earnings! 🙌🏻

Bundles are upsells, higher priced items, AND provide much more value to your buyers.

The best part? They are pretty easy to upload to TpT. I forgot to mention this on the episode, but I love the fact that all I really need to do is make a new cover etc, as the products are already made!

Tell me, have you listened to this week’s podcast episode yet? If so, do you feel inspired to make more bundles? 

If you haven’t listened yet, will you be listening soon? 🙂
