It's Back to School...Yep!

Thank you, readers, for remaining loyal and continuing to read my poor blog while I try to get back into the swing of school.  Sometimes my blog is the first thing to be neglected when school is back in session.  I want to make a goal of blogging at least once a week.  Maybe if I write it...it will happen ;)

So, what have I been up to?

Well...school started on August 6!  So early!  It has been an amazing two weeks in though!  I am loving my new school home and the teachers and staff in this building are awesome.  (Not knocking my old teacher buddies...they are equally as awesome, but I sure do love my new colleagues and I especially love the new commute!)

My days have been spent adjusting schedules and building relationships with my new students.  Everything is really coming together.  I plan on sharing my special ed binder with all of you very soon.  I would love for you to see how I organize all of that wonderful sped paperwork and maybe you can give me suggestions too!

After school...easily could be called a whirlwind!  BTS means new soccer teams, new gymnastics schedule, Boy Scouts, choir, Wednesday night Kidz City @ church...and the list goes on!  I really wouldn't change a thing.  I enjoy watching my kids do activities that they love and are good at!

Well, friends... help me keep to my once a week blogging promise!  I will be bringing you "meatier" posts very soon.  Well, as soon as my mind and body get back to school routine!

:)

New Room Pics & BTS Freebie

I have been so, so busy lately.  I finally finished decorating my classroom!  We had open house last Thursday and school begins on Tuesday.  I was so excited to meet some of my new kiddos!

Take a look around my room!

Cheesing for my mommy!  She brought her camera to open house and took several pictures of us! It was like I was a kid again!  Here's me and my desk!

Bubba says he is the teacher!  Chloe made it so! :)

My very own classroom!! First time in 10 years that I've had a room all my own!

The board and alphabet!  Thank you LadyBug Teacher Files for the cute alphabet!

Just a little organization and my "safe" & sensory corner.

The new library!  Beautiful!

My book worms hanging out in the library!  

New computers in the library/media center!


New room collage!

And because I love my readers so much and I have been a rotten blogger because of the big move...here is a Back to School Freebie for you!  
I am going to use this scavenger hunt to help my students get familiar with my new classroom and with their new friends!  Click the picture below to download from my TPT store.
