Snowflakes for Sandy Hook

Silence for Sandy Hook

Teachers Pay Teachers!

Morning Teachers!  I have exciting news to share!  I am now selling items and sharing Free items on Teachers Pay Teachers!   A few items I put in my store are:

I am very excited to say I have sold my first item!!  I hope that I can truly help teachers save time on making documents like the above, and would love to know more what teachers need so I can help!  

Check it out here!

Smartboard Calendar

Each day I start my kiddos with a really fun, full of movement calendar!  I thought it would be fun to share this with you as well.  Here is a quick look at a few pages from my November Version!

I put a ton of videos to change it up each day!  The kiddos are totally in control, they choose who will get picked....  

I also use First Grade Parade's calendar pack, which I love, and so do the kids!

Classroom Tour!

I am so excited to share with you my classroom pictures!  Since this is a new district & school, this was a lot of fun for me!  When I walked into my room, I was in awe... It is simply amazing.  I couldn't ask for a better room...  Here it is when I first arrived 3 weeks ago...

Check out those shiny floors!

Oh boy!

Sparkling clean!

Literally a blank slate!

I couldn't wait to just see it all come together.  It took a lot of time, hard work, and "pinterest!"  I love it!

So drumroll please.....  This is my Kindergarten classroom!  

Got this idea from http://flipflopteacher.blogspot.com/

Such cute little cubbies!  Supplies all dropped off from Meet the Teacher night!  

I love that the cubbie area is a hallway outside of the classroom.  I am going to be posting student work on the blue & green construction paper.  I put clothespin clips to hold the papers up.

Library, writing, CAFE board.

Student tables all set for day 1

Book bins!  Love Donors Choose!

So what do you think?!!?  I love this room, and I feel so blessed to have this classroom.  I can't wait to have all the kiddos in it on Tuesday!!!   If you see anything that needs a little tweaking, let me know!  I plan on filling it up with anchor charts, kids work, ect.

First Day of School Plans!

Getting ready for school has really been racking my brain.  I always need a visual schedule, especially with the school and grade change!  Let me know if you have any suggestion for day one with kinders!! Thanks!

Plinko for the Kiddo!

It has been a CRAZY year for me needless to say with the lack of posts.... From school to my brothers wedding, and now I am happy to announce a new job!  I will be moving districts as well as grade levels.  I am now going to teacher Kindergarten! Whoo hoo!  I am actually teaching at the school I once attended as a student, and two of my teachers are still there, amazing!  I wanted to share this awesome game I saw on Fun in First Grade:

Plinko!!


Looks pretty sweet huh?  Lakeshore is also having a sale too!

Off to school to continue to set up before the "new to our school teacher meetings" start tomorrow!! EKK!

Best of luck all!
