So, I started back to work last week and can I just tell you how ECSTATIC I am about this new school year? So. Ready. My kiddos don't officially start until Wednesday though, and there are still a zillion things left to do today. I am linking up with Tara at 4th Grade Frolics today to share with you one very small Monday Made It project. But, I am so happy with how it turned out. Last year, I found these adorable little notebooks at Walmart during the summer. I grabbed them up along with some mechanical pencils and whipped together this cute little tag for my student "back to school" gifts. I liked it so much that I wanted to do it again this year, but I didn't want to use the same saying. Remember the Beatles song "I get by with a little help from my friends"? That couldn't be more true! This project happened thanks to some very special ladies on Instagram. Megan from A New Box of Crayons wrote an adorable poem for me to use on my new, ...
Monday Made It
Monday Made It- Sprucing Up My Bookshelves!
Hello friends! Happy Monday! I am presenting at one of our summer staff PD sessions today on the technology tool Thinglink so I am probably a nervous wreck(sweating, shaking, and freaking out) while you are reading this. But...keep reading. I forgive you. I am semi-joking. But really... I LOVE presenting. It is the best thing EVER, but I still get so dang nervous! If you follow me on IG then you saw this...if not...... Ms. Young got engaged! Pretty excited! Last year as "Ms. Young"...is it weird that thinking about that makes me sad? It's a good sad though. OKAY-enough random. I am hopping on the blog today to share my rain gutter bookshelf makeover for Tara's Monday Made It Linky! I wanted a unique way to showcase books without taking up a lot of room. Last year, I had some rain gutters cut and installed in my room. Then, I saw Amanda at Teaching Maddeness post about her "spray painted" gutter shelves. You can read all about them ...
Monday Made It-Cameo Style
Happy Monday! Good news? I leave for VEGAS in the morning. Bad news? I only have 4 more Mondays before school starts. :/ Don't get me wrong- I LOVE my job, but I am just so in love with summer this year. It is going to be hard to get back into the swing of things. Anywho- I am blogging today to share with you some classroom projects that I have completed over the past week. I am pretty excited about how well they turned out! Tara's linky is seriously my favorite! All of my projects where made using my Cameo Silhouette. I have had it for over a year now, and can honestly say that it is one of my favorite craft/teaching purchases ever. Recently, I started to experiment with how to use transfer tape to help me place vinyl ...
