The One Where...We We're On a Break!


It’s been a nice, long break from the blogging world! I don’t think my brain ever shuts off even a day from school but it was nice to cut back and enjoy the sunshine! I think all teacher's (and Ross) agree, a break from school is needed for your sanity!!  I also spent my summer enjoying this little nugget, Santo!




(It’s hard to get work done when I spend all day telling him how cute he is)

Tomorrow I start my third year in third grade and I thought what a better place to start than my new classroom! This year brings many new and exciting changes. First, I will be teaching math, science, and social studies. I am so so excited for this because I believe so strongly in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) in the classroom. Second, this means I will have two sets of students throughout the day and I will share kiddos! Third, I moved classrooms! For some this can be overwhelming or a turn off, I on the other hand would have majored in classroom design if given the chance so I was ecstatic! 




To keep my long winded self on a short leash I’m going to share pictures and very short captions!

 First, I got tables my dad MADE ME TABLES! They are whiteboard tables and I couldn't be happier with how they look! 




This year we are focused on workshop model across all subject areas and I think the tables will be PERFECT for class collaboration! 

Small group table (added my name in burlap because students STRUGGLE spelling it!) I'll see if it helps! 


 Love this fun little rug, and that my room leads to the playground.

 And that we have a mountain view. *Squinting only required in picture*
Using the windows to display goals and data charts...saves wall space! 




Our math area, I'm obsessed with my math posters from, Ashleigh's Educational Journey. 


 Also, loving my number line from Amy Lemons!
