Straight hair, don't care

Yikes! Where the hey has the time gone! Sorry I've been MIA lately. School has been quite busy with end of the year testing, professional development classes, and never ending to-do lists. Also, I've been suffering from horrid allergies over the past couple of days and have been feeling (and looking) like a hot mess! Hopefully I can get some new fashion posts up real soon!

Oh yeah..great, great news...I just found out that I will be moving on up to teach SECOND GRADE next year! Whoohoo! FUN stuff, huh? I am up for the challenge and excited for all that is to come! Change is good.

Over the weekend I...

...played, sang and danced with some pretty cool kiddos. Another play season has come and gone. Congratulations to the cast and crew of this years Methuen High School musical, The Fantasticks. You most definitely turned on the magic this weekend. Great job! See you next year...xo

Grade 1 Anchor Charts

All of my amazing teacher friends will appreciate this post...Here are some of the anchor charts I have hanging in and around my first grade classroom at the moment. Some of the ideas came from Pinterest and a bunch of other great teacher sites out there in lala land. Enjoy & recreate! xo

Game Time

During our Math Workshop today in first grade I overheard a huddle conversation between two students while playing a measurement game together. It went a little like this...

"Come on dude, focus! Calm down and get your head in the game!"

Priceless moments all while learning about centimeters and inches. Gatta love it. Wish I had a cute, little friend who would pump me up whenever I was slackin'. ;)
