August Currently & New Products

 

Please say it isn’t so… is it really August already?!? Where has the summer gone? I honestly can’t complain, I have had a very relaxing and enjoyable summer so far, so the time off has been very much appreciated. I also secretly LOVE the month of August, because it’s my birthday month, even if my birthday isn’t until the VERY end of the month!!  

Since it’s the start of a new month that means it’s time to link up with the amazing Farley over at Oh, Boy Fourth Grade! for her monthly Currently Linky!

Listening: I admit it…I watch Guy Code, I also watch Girl Code when it’s on. These shows are very funny to me. It’s fun hearing their opinions on different topics, some I can relate to and others is just LOL because it’s unreal!

Loving: I started my fitness journey at the end of June by using Rachelle’s 3 Weeks No Cheats. I’m on my 2nd round of not missing a daily workout, whether it’s going for a walk, to the gym, or just doing some exercises right here in the comfort of my home. It’s the BEST decision that I’ve made lately! I’ve come to enjoy working out and most days crave it! Let me just say that is something that I NEVER thought I would ever say! I’m bummed to be heading back to school soon, which means I won’t be able to get my morning walks in, but I do plan to continue getting my daily workouts in, just in the afternoons/evenings when I get home. I’m sure I’ll be deadbeat tired those first couple of weeks back to school, but I’ve got to stick to it! Can’t let myself slip now that I’ve come this far!

Thinking: Summer has truly flown by. It does not feel like I’m getting ready to head back to school and it definitely doesn’t feel like I’m going to have a new group of students. I’m excited for the new year, but I want summer to just slow down just a teeny tiny bit!

Wanting: My boyfriend and I woke up and went straight to the gym (our new normal Saturday morning routine) so now all I want to do is take a nap. I’ve actually been wanting to take naps all week, but I’ve been doing my best to resist the urge because I don’t wan to start taking naps this late in the summer. That will make heading back to school even more difficult than it already will be.

Needing: With school right around the corner I really need to get myself in gear and get some things created that I’ve been putting off. Some of it is kind of hard to get done, because we won’t get our class list for another 2 weeks or so, but there are some crafts that I’ve begun and need to finish. I have been getting a lot of paper work type things done, but there is still SO much more that I need to get done. In the end I know it will all get done, it always does!

So that’s what I’m currently up to, what about you?!? Head on over to Farley’s blog to link up!

Before you go…I just want to share a few new products that are listed in my store. Click on the images to be taken directly to the products in my TPT store. I still have lots of other things that I want to create and will be adding things to my store more frequently!

                

That’s all I have for today! Once I’m able to get into my room and start setting up, I’ll be back to post pictures.

Until Next Time…

Have Fun & Live Life to the Fullest!

Voter Registration Freebie

Hi Everyone,

I hope that everyone effected by Hurricane Sandy is doing well. We were fortunate that we never lost power or had any damage during the storm, but I know that so many others on the East Coast were not as fortunate. My heart goes out to all of them as they work towards returning to some sort of normalcy.

With the Presidential Election quickly coming to an end, I wanted to share a file that I created to accompany the election unit that my team and I are doing. Our kids are having a blast learning about what it takes to run for any type of office.

Go HERE to grab this Freebie. I hope that you are able to use this in your classroom. I would love to hear what every one else has done to teach the election process.

Well time to finish report card comments!

Until Next Time...

Remember to always have FUN learning & teaching!!!

Back in the Swing of Things & Freebie

WOW!!! It has been a LONG time since I have done any blogging on this blog. I was devoting more time to my crafting blog, and in all honestly forgot all about this blog. But fear not, that will no longer happen. Of course a new school year is underway for me and I have a wonderful bunch of little gals and gents that make my days go oh so quickly! LOL!

I've finally taken a leap and decided to create products to sell on Teachers Pay Teachers. I LOVE this site and have found some wonderful resources so I figured that it was about time that I gave back to the teaching community as well!

Here is a freebie for all of my followers.

In our county we use the Investigations program and we have just finished our Geometry Unit. I created this file as a quick assessment to see if my kiddos really understood what triangles were and how they looked. I have to say that they did very well, which I never doubted that they would! I would love to get your feedback on this product so that I can work towards creating better products! Thanks a million!

Well Until Next Time...

Continue to Have Fun Learning!

Hugs,
