Hello, Summer!
It's been two months since my last post to the day. You know what that means, don't you? This teacher/student/Jane-of-all-trades has been BUSY! That's not to say my mind hasn't been swirling with ideas for the coming school year, though! I am brainstorming many ideas for the classroom (my Pinterest classroom board is overflowing!).
Some of the things I will be posting on before the school year begins are:
-a before and after of my classroom (I get a blank slate! woohoo!)
-my binder/notebook system I am scheming up
-the spelling "curriculum" I created for the year
-some of the writing workshops and projects I have planned
-our reading plan for the year
-a personal favorite: " How to have an AWESOME middle school classroom even though the middle school years are the most overlooked in education and there are minimal resources available to teachers to make their classrooms just a tad more inviting than a prison cell..." (rant-alert!)
-anddddd, drum roll, please! If all goes as planned I will be posting a before and after of the desk I am refurbishing! (The same desk that I nearly broke my thumb on while moving it into my house!)
Most of you probably don't care about anything in this post (I don't blame you!), but writing it was my way of promising myself (and you!) that these things will be done and shared before the end of summer! Accountability! Woo!
To those that read this, happy summer! Have fun! Catch some rays, some Z's, some lightning bugs and most certainly harass me about this post if you see me in person!
Thanks for reading!
Love,
Miss Laura

ReplyDeleteThanks for the nudge to share it! I was wanting to share it in a Pinterest specific blog soon, too! But here is the link to my classroom board: http://pinterest.com/lmdawson529/class-tastic/
