oy!

Between a photo shoot, painting my best friend's new home office, making wreaths, giving a wedding shower for my principal, getting things ready for "back to school"

 I am one tired sister over here!  OY!!!  I can't even think of it all.
I do know that luckily I am almost done setting up my classroom (the beloved 304) and will have to post some pictures.  I have given a little bit of a facelift to the room.  I am so ready to share!!

Today is my official last day of summer.  Kind of exciting and kind of sad.  I don't feel like I've stopped much. :/


I just put new new items up in my TPT shop... Yay!

This is a little freebie that I just posted!  This voice level chart has helped me in my classroom many times!

You can swing by and pick it up { here }

One B-I-G thing I am working on is a 1st grade language arts/grammar notebook.  I started using one mid-year last year and it worked like a charm!  My co-workers love it so much that they want me to make it into a whole packet that we can all use this year.  I plan on having a grammar section, a "practice" section, and then a section for vocabulary.  We are going to include a "word of the week" to help boost our kiddos' vocabulary and we thought a section where they could write the word, what it means, and draw a picture would be a great thing to include.  I will more than likely be happier than a bird with a french fry if it all comes together like it is in my head.  Wouldn't that be something?? lol!!

More things soon!
