I officially go back to school Monday although I have already been back working on my room in bits and pieces. The air conditioning is only on in the office right now and I live in south central Texas so we are talking hot and miserable when you are trying to get things done. This year my classroom is going to have a beach theme since the teacher I collaborative teach with is setting hers up with an ocean theme. When I get done I'll try to figure out how to post pictures and show you all what it looks like.
For now let me see if I can figure out how to share a free printable with you. It is a school tool sort activity that you can have students work on independently once you have introduced the pictures and how the tools are used.
The free printable can be found here http://www.4shared.com/document/MTJUZfns/School_Tool_Sort_by_PennieB.html
Sorry I don't have a picture of it - for now I am just trying to find out if I am doing the linking part right. One step at a time and hopefully I'll get there.
