Anchor Charts

Over the years, I have created dozens of anchor charts in my classroom. I am a huge proponent of creating anchor charts with my students, and I strongly believe that the perfect anchor chart isn’t always pretty. The posts below feature many of my anchor charts.

hey, I’m Mary

I’m so glad you are here. I’m a current gifted and talented teacher in a small town in Colorado, and I’ve been in education since 2009. My passion (other than my family and cookies) is for making teachers’ lives easier and classrooms more engaging.

Okay, I actually have two that I think about ALL t Okay, I actually have two that I think about ALL the time. ✨ Both of these came up early in my career and stuck with me. I’d love to hear yours!

🌟 Regarding student behaviors… it’s not necessary to react to everything you notice. THIS ONE. This is the one. 

🌟 Don’t worry so much about PROVING yourself and focus on IMPROVING your teaching practices in small ways. 🩷

Tell us yours in the comments!
Even if teaching regions isn’t part of your soci Even if teaching regions isn’t part of your social studies curriculum, this reading project is a sure fire way to engage kids during your reading block! 😍 

🌟 Drop a comment below, and I’ll send you a link if you are ready for the most engaging, content-heavy (soo much content), cross-curricular reading project of them all?! 👏💕 

I created this regions literacy unit to hit almost every single informational text standard (seriously, so many!) while engaging every student (and being low-prep for you)! Win Win!🏅 

After they learn alllll about the regions, they synthesize information from many different sources to create a scrapbook to document their travels. 🧳 

🚘 Grab your road trip snacks, and let’s go!
This is just ONE step in increasing conceptual und This is just ONE step in increasing conceptual understanding of multiplying fractions — but also, kids really love making these models!✨ 👏 Comment below, and I’ll send you a link to the sticky notes and everything I use to teach multiplying and dividing fractions!

I have always used tracing paper to help students visualize multiplying fractions models, but for the past couple of years, I’ve been using transparent sticky notes, and the engagement is top tier. 😝

Side note… My measurements weren’t perfect in the video, so the parts weren’t EXACTLY equal, but I do usually have my students measure them out.
Comment below, and I’ll send you my literacy and Comment below, and I’ll send you my literacy and math plans for incorporating the winter games into my classroom this year!! ⛷️ It was a HUGE hit four years ago, and I have been so excited about using the same resources again this year. ❄️
I took some time to refresh enrichment binders tod I took some time to refresh enrichment binders today! I added new poems, magazines, books, and some of my favorite Winter Games math and winter resources! 👏 

Comment below, and I’ll send you links to some of my new additions that are perfect for this time of year! 💕

So… WHY Enrichment binders? 🤔 Isn’t that just more busy work? NOPE! 

I am a firm believer that students who have mastered material should have DIFFERENT work, not just MORE work. This is meant to be used as replacement enrichment rather than additional work. 

💥 That means when students have shown mastery of a skill, I don’t need to make them do more of the same exact thing. Instead, we need to have something MEANINGFUL ready for them that either advances, deepens, or enriches their learning and thinking!

💭  When used together with differentiated class work and appropriate enrichment opportunities, the content within enrichment binders is rigorous and meaningful and will challenge, advance, and GROW students academically while still remaining SUPER engaging. 🌱 

I update enrichment binders as needed, based on current skills, goals, and needs! 📅
2025 was a GREAT year for children’s books! 👏 2025 was a GREAT year for children’s books! 👏 These are just a few of my favorite releases — comment below, and I’ll send you a list of ALL my favorites. 📚
This is ALWAYS the first thing I do when we return This is ALWAYS the first thing I do when we return from break!! 👏 It’s free and totally print and go — just comment below, and I’ll send you the link to download it. 🩷💕
This is my new favorite ornament project in my cla This is my new favorite ornament project in my classroom! 👏 🎄 We are reading Peter Brown’s new book, The Gift of Words, and creating ornaments with messages of positivity, hope, and joy for the year to come and in celebration of this year! Comment below, and I’ll send you all the info and a link to this absolutely beautiful book. 

✨ While there are Christmas themes in the book, it never mentions Christmas. 🩷 We will leave our adornments on the tree throughout the winter season. 

✨ You can also combine this idea with another I’ve done in the past, where students write a positive compliment to each other students the class and place it into their ornaments. These are a favorite every year, and ours still hang on our personal tree at home (see the last video).
