Friends.

I’ve shared that this month is National Preparedness Month.

Have you checked it out?

make free ICE [In Case of Emergency] cards for your kids @savethechildren #GetReadyGetSafe

Have you created your Emergency Prep Kit? Your Go-Bags? Your ICE Cards?

It’s okay. I know you’re busy.

We all are.

But take two minutes today and create ICE [In Case of Emergency] Cards for your kids.

ICE Cards are super easy to make, and the whole purpose of them is to keep your kids safe.

Thanks to Save the Children’s site, you can make these cards in two minutes. Two minutes.

We all have two minutes, especially if it means our kids will be walking around with important information at their fingertips.

Throw them in your child’s backpack, coat, or lunchbox.

Here’s the skinny. . .

Make FREE ICE [In Case of Emergency] Cards for Your Kids — What EVERY Child Must Have:

Head over to print your own!

make ICE [in case of emergency] cards for your kids | teachmama.com

 

make free ICE [In Case of Emergency] cards for your kids @savethechildren #GetReadyGetSafe

And then take 5 minutes to ‘bling’ out your ICE Cards. Adding a little more pizzaz to the cards is totally not necessary–but it will make the cards more durable for your kids.

All you need to ‘bling’ your ICE Cards are:

  • your printed ICE Cards from Save the Children site
  • an index card (totally optional–just makes it more durable)
  • a plastic sandwich bag (any kid will do)
  • some washi tape (I like these plain colors, but you could go with patterned washi tape, too)
  • scissors

 Check out a quickie video about how easy these are to make.

Don’t forget to subscribe to teachmama.com on YouTube so you don’t miss a thing!

That’s it.

Please, friends, let me know when you’ve made your ICE Cards. Leave a comment below or via Facebook.

And if you would, please share, share, share this post!  The more families who make these, the safer our children will be in an emergency!

THANK YOU, @imse_og for the best. training. ever!!

WHERE on earth did this week go? It completely flew by!

Our instructor, Becky Strimple, was AWESOME. I am officially hooked on the #OrtonGillingham method, and I am already looking at the next IMSE course I can take to get me closer to Comprehensive OG Plus Certification.

Day 4 of OG Training, and this 5 second video doesn’t even scratch the surface of what we covered. 

I have participated in dozens and dozens and dozens of trainings over the course of my career—and throughout my own education—but hands down this is the best one I have ever had. 

Every educator should take this. I don’t have the faintest idea why it’s not required for every edu degree. 

It’s not only a look at the best ways to teach decoding and encoding, but it’s a study of the English language as well. It’s wild.
