I’m baaaaaack! I don’t know what my problem is. It’s not like I’ve had FOUR months of down time to blog and chose to do no such thing! I am recommitting to blogging and posting once a week or more if I’m inspired (but don’t count on more). Anyway, I was recently contacted by aContinue reading “Did You Miss Me?!?!”

I Could Get Used to This
Three weeks in. So far, so good. I’m starting to get used to having an office. I’ve mastered how to use the walkie talkie! I survived my new role during a fire drill. I must say, I like fire drills much better as a teacher. I attended a suicide protocol training last week. It wasContinue reading “I Could Get Used to This”
Lounge Makeover
The long awaited lounge makeover is complete! I had so much fun planning and am so grateful that my administration gave me free reign creatively. Having a hubby who is a painter also came in handy 🙂 He was a huge help. My kids were also very helpful. The first thing we did was repaintContinue reading “Lounge Makeover”
My final week as a kindergarten teacher
This past week was an emotional one! I didn’t sleep much, continually thinking of all the things I needed to do to prepare to be a counselor. The list was actually quite short because I’m still figuring out what exactly what I’ll be doing next year. I lost a majority of my sleep thinking ofContinue reading “My final week as a kindergarten teacher”

A Peek at my Week…Week 35
The Lowe’s Fairy visited our class and left us some planting supplies this week! We planted our grass seeds during Fun Friday. I love using grass seeds because they grow so fast. Their little cups will have mini sprouts by Monday 🙂 I put a close up picture of each student on their cup andContinue reading “A Peek at my Week…Week 35”
A Peek at My Week…Week 34
My kiddos are obsessed with our caterpillars! I didn’t pay too much attention to the caterpillars when they arrived and showed them to the kids. I sat them down on the carpet and told them there were 5 caterpillars that would soon turn into butterflies. Then I gave them a butterfly observation journal and sentContinue reading “A Peek at My Week…Week 34”
A Peek at my Week…Week 33
Happy Easter! I love bunnies! My sister and I had a couple bunnies as pets when we were kids. One of the bunny’s played with our dog. They would chase each other around the yard and play together. It was the funniest thing to watch! After we got married, I bought Mike a bunny forContinue reading “A Peek at my Week…Week 33”
Spring Break is Finally Here!
TGIFreakin’ Spring Break! This break is long overdue, but I’m so glad it’s here. The kids were crazy this week. It was super windy for most of the week, which made the kids even more wild. But, we were able to create a fun wind craft because of it! You can check it out here. WeContinue reading “Spring Break is Finally Here!”
