Today, was a ray of sunshine. I graded papers and my students did really, really well on both the punctuation paper, the greater than/less than math page, and their safety science test! Then this morning, I had a child give me a picture of her going to the beach with me...it just really made my day. I put it by my desk as a reminder of the importance of my attitude...wouldn't that have stunk if she would've drawn me handing out worksheets yelling. Oh, then my kids and I played "Sparkle." It was one of my favorite games growing up since I totally practiced my spelling words!
Here are some pictures of my classroom:
Before I could put my touch on the classroom, I was blocked out of my room by the giant toilet paper rack taken from across the hall and placed in my room for floor waxing! I actually helped lift this back into the hall so I could get in my room!
This is a before shot (this was even with some work done to it, too!)!
Reading/Language Wall
Forcing social studies on them! :)

Keeping up with the kids in the hall
My husband has excellent handwriting skills (I left it up and erased around it for days). Notice my handwriting in the second picture. Eeeks...practice makes perfect?
Aren't desk tags just the cutest thing ever?
Much love and a brighter outlook,
