Happy everything, friends! It’s 8 o’clock on a Sunday night, and that means in 90 minutes, I’ll be snoozing. In my new teacher life that is about as late as I can make it!
For the first 3 weeks, we have been using post-its as bookmarks, but my kids have started asking for “cool” bookmarks. But really, they ask daily for real bookmarks “You know, Ms. W – the ones that are shiny and have cool colors on the front.” This weekend I have had time to get my head above water and feel ‘on top’ of life, so… I got down to book-mark making. 🙂
Of course because we are in 5th grade and ‘BIG’ kids, they could not be cute. They have to be ‘cool’. Using KG’s Second Chances font, I was able to make a simple, yet eye-catching front that I think my kids will love. They will feel all grown-up. Since I made the fronts ‘cool’ for them, I added a little something on the back for me – reading strategy stems! Since we are writing weekly reading response letters , I am hoping these prompts will help my kids’ juices flow. 🙂
I have uploaded an editable file toTPT, so that you can make bookmarks for your own kiddos! Click here or the picture below to grab the file. 🙂 Also, make sure to check out all the other Monday Made It projects that Tara is highlighting!
Now, I'm torn! 2 posts on Monday Made It on bookmarks! I love yours also, they are very "cool" yet purposeful.
Those are just adorable!!! Love them and that will be keeping me up late tomorrow….I'm to pooped to make them tonight…lol. Thanks for sharing and for linking up:) Super sweet!!!

Your bookmarks are fantastic – you are right, they are cool. I am sure your students will love them.
Those bookmarks are so cute…I mean "cool"! And I like how you added the reading strategies to the back. Sneaky, sneaky! I'm going to have to download them and make them for my kiddos, too. Thanks for the freebie!
