Back to School Sale and a Sneak Peek!

The TPT Back to School sale is just around the corner! I've been filling up my cart for weeks and I am SO excited for all my new goodies!

The deets...


Thanks Krista for the adorable sale sign!! 

I've had this idea swirling around in my head for weeks to put together a little scientific method mini unit to coincide with our beginning of the year Egg-speriments and I am so EGGSTATIC about it! 

We always start the year with the Egg Squeeze and Egg Float to get students thinking about the scientific method, but I wanted to add more depth and correlate it more with the steps of the Scientific Method so this should be coming to you this weekend!

I think I posted about the Egg Float last year. You can view that post HERE!

Here's a sneak peek!




What do you guys think??

Teacher Week 2013 {Now Teach: Organizing for Instruction}

It's day 3 of Teacher Week and today is all about organizing our classrooms!



I am far from the final product so many of these pictures are just small projects I've been working {many unfinished} but I had to participate anyway! I will be updating everyone with the final product next week, but in the meantime, here are some tips for organizing your classrooms!


 {That ugly green color caddy bugs me so I have NEON ones coming soon! I also plan on printing pretty labels for my plastic drawers.}

 I took all of the leveled reader lesson plans and organized them by Fountas and Pinnell level to keep in a binder for easy access! It has been a HUGE time saver!
I have new plans for my meet the teacher handbook for this year...


Oh my-lanta, I'm in love with this! =)  Just click the image above for the TPT link! 

Now head over to Blog Hoppin' to link up with your organizational ideas so I can snag em'! ;)


Teacher Week 2013 {Classroom Digs}

It's time to check out my classroom abode! 

It's nowhere near being complete but I am going to post some photos of what I have comning along so far! I will be posting my final reveal next week! 

In the meantime, here are some projects and things I have going on. Many of these things may look familiar as I am sticking with last years NEON theme! =)






 These two items are new additions to my classroom theme this year and I love them!!
 I used my same bulletin board borders as last year but I added some Cameo cut out letters for each subject area. I am in love with the way they turned out!
Head over to Blog Hoppin' and link up so I can check out your classroom digs!
