Stepping it Up!

I've been examining the top selling materials made and sold by teachers on TpT and trying to get a handle on this new venture I've decided to take on!  I can't get over how absolutely amazing the work is that people are creating.  There are really incredible teachers out there!  It's time to step up my game!

When I started teaching the 3rd grade modules this year, the 1st module was not out yet, so I haven't had any materials for the first module created yet.  I decided that Module 1 was going to be where I'm going to show myself what I'm really capable of!

The area of focus for Module 1 is Superheroes of Reading from Around the World which is actually a pretty intense topic.  It's going to be interesting to see how well the students are able to grasp it.  Since this is such an intense unit I felt like I needed to lighten it up with a Superhero theme! 

Love Always,

Welcome to Common Core with Style!

I am over the moon excited about my new blog!  I am so grateful for the help from Megan over at Bird in Hand Designs... she did an amazing job reading my mind and delivering exactly what I wanted!  I highly recommend her to anyone out there starting a blog! 

I will mainly be blogging about my experiences with the "New" New York State Common Core Curriculum for 3rd Grade since that is a major hot topic right now.  I spent the 2012-2013 school year putting my blood, sweat, and tears into modifying this "curriculum" for my students.  Since I am in one of the few districts in New York that decided to dive in head first this year, I thought I would share my experiences with all of you! 

We are on this journey together so why not blog about it?
