Math Workstation Rotation Dots

   So I just finished reading Guided Math and am beginning Debbie Diller's Math Workstations book.  My plan was to read it in time to keep up with the book study on the different blogs, but that didn't work out so well.  I'll just have to go back and read the posts. 
   Anyway, Diller suggests using numbers on your workstation management board to show the kids which station they will be working in.  She also suggests using 2 different colors (1 for each round).  So, since I'm doing a polka dot "theme" in my room next year, I thought that these would be cute for my rotation chart.  If you like these, feel free to grab them.  If you'd like different colors to go with your classroom, shoot me an email and I'll try to get them customized for you!






SUCCESS!!!

Yeah!  I did it!  I figured out the whole blog button thing!  In answer to my last post, yes, it was just me (I was copying the wrong code for the picture).  Thank you so much Leslie for your help (and for this cute design).  If you haven't checked out Leslie's site, you need to go right now.  She has some great ideas and is a wonderful help to newbie bloggers like me!





GRRR!

Ok, should it really be this hard, or is it just me?  First of all, Leslie, thank you for the great tutorial on adding the "Grab My Button" box.  As you can see, I figured that part out.  Now, however, I can't get the picture of the button to show up.  I have copied and pasted the html code, but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong!!!  Can anyone help me?

New Blog Button (but I still need a little help!)

So a MILLION thanks to Leslie at Kindergartenworks for creating a blog button for me to use until I could figure out the whole button thing.  Maybe it's just the computer I'm working on (I'm at my Momma's for a couple of weeks and her computer is...well...not the best), and maybe it's my extreme lack of blogging knowledge (don't laugh), but I can get the button to appear on my sidebar - I just can't figure out how to get the code below it so people can grab it.  Any suggestions?




Help With Blog Button

So I really want to create a blog button, but I have no idea even where to begin!  I know that there are many talented bloggers out there that may be able to help me, so please leave me a comment if you can and let me know how you create your great buttons!
