Wahoooo! It is time for the Summer Stock Up organized by The Primary Gal! Lots of teacher bloggers have come together to share some of our favorite resources to get you ready for the new school year. It is never too early to start getting ready! I feel the need to explain about the category and the product section here. My post is suppose to be about a reading related product. But, I am about to talk about my back to school postcards. They ARE related...promise. Ready for the reason? Here it is..... YES, the product I am posting for the summer stock up IS my back to school postcard pack. I love sending notes to my kiddos at the beginning of the year welcoming them to our class.

While looking at this resource a few weeks ago, I started thinking about others ways that I could use postcards with my students. The idea of sending home postcards to students ...

TPT Seller Challenge Week 2: Dare to Dream
As I sit here writing this post, I am currently outside on my in-laws' deck watching the sun set over the beautiful lake. It's peaceful, calming, rejuvenating, and simply euphoric. The best part? The hubs and I have our own lot now right beside theirs which means the view could be mine one day. It has been my husband's dream to live out here, and I want to help make that dream come true to him. That's why I LOVE this week's TPT Seller Challenge. It has made me really reflect on specific goals and dreams. This week's challenge is all about dreaming big! My husband and I have so may goals and dreams and I really want to see all of that come to life.

I am so fortunate to have a profession that I LOVE, a husband and family who believe in me and support me 110%, and a community of educators who are the best cheerleading section a girl could ask for.

TpT Seller Challenge-Makeover Madness
Making products is NOT my forte', but I do enjoying creating some things to use in my classroom that might be beneficial to others teachers. Every year, I give my students a "Reading Interest Survey" to get a quick idea about how and what my kiddos like to read. This product was my FIRST ever TpT creation and I would like to use it for the new school year so it was the perfect product for me to give a makeover for the TPT Seller Challenge! Check out the small changes I made! I made a few changes to the cover page, main document, and my terms of use page. I am pretty exited to have had a few spare minutes to update this. Grab this FREEBIE if you feel like you might be able to use it with your kiddos in the new year. I am always grateful that I took the time to ask them about their reading interests. The survey gives me a beginning glimpse into the influence that reading plays in the lives of my students and provides me with a foundation to build off of ...
