Mrs. Orman's Classroom: Notebooks and Jeans? You Need Lesson Plans for Back-to-School!

I love Target and their back-to-school commercials are so catchy, like their English teacher "Notebook and Jeans" parody of The GoGo's "We Got the Beat."

These are great for parents and students doing their back-to-school shopping, but what about the teachers? We don't need notebooks and jeans. We need icebreaker activities, novel units, presentations, worksheets, lesson plans, assessments, and tools to align our curriculum to the Common Core State Standards! Wouldn't it be great if there was an inexpensive place to find all of these AND get a great back-to-school discount?

Guess what? There is! It's called TeachersPayTeachers and you can find everything you need for your classroom in one place. Plus, you can shop conveniently from your own home. And the topping on the cake is the discount August 12-13. I will be having a 20% off sale on everything in my store and you can get an additional 10% off at check-out using code BTS12.

So instead of singing "Notebook and Jeans," try the TpT version. And have an awesome school year!
