Here we are at Friday again! This summer is flying by! YIKES! However, I am enjoying every bit of it. I love this weekly linky because I get to stop and reflect on my week! Sometimes it just flies by and I don't take time to think about ALL I have done in just one week. Especially in the summer because...what day is it again? Haha! Anyways, here we go...
I totally redid one of my very first products this week. The product was the "This is Me this Month" journal. I love doing this with my class. The kids do a page at the beginning of each month. I save them in a folder and put them together in a booklet for the kids at the end of the year. It is so cute so see how their drawings changed and how their responses changed throughout the year! I love this even more now that it is a bit spruced up!

I also finished my TpT Seller Challenge #3 this week! I have been meaning to make a vocabulary packet and this challenge gave me the motivation to finish it! This packet includes 4 games, 4 response pages, and a home-school connection! I know this packet will give me the perfect combination of activities to do with my kids this year and will help them develop a deeper connection to their words. Hooray!
Visit my previous post for a FREEBIE from this packet and to see more! Or just purchase it here!
Also, if you would like to help a new girl out...I would love some more followers! |
Lastly, I feel compelled to share to this lady with you! I watched her show on Bravo "Jersey Belle" a little bit and thought she was funny. Then I found her facebook page and started watching her morning "cawfeetawks." Y'all (there is the TN in me)...she is seriously great! She is so realistic, funny, and wise! She does a talk everyday and it ranges from anything to marriage, kids, family, friends, or a little pop culture. Today her talk was about learning from failure and always going for what you believe in. I related that to starting on this blogging and TpT journey! If you want a daily dose of awesome, check her out. Oh...and she blocks anyone that isn't supportive or positive! I think it is the only place on the internet (besides teacher blogs) where everyone is 100% positive!
Cheers! Have a great week!
Kristen,

I'm hopping over to TPT now to follow you! I have been thinking of a Fitbit! My birthday is next week, so it might be the perfect present! I was reading your profile tab on your blog - I am leaving the inner city, teaching 3rd graders, to a school and district *much* closer to home. :( I'm now going to teach 8th grade - which is exciting! - but my heart is broken to leave the students I was blessed to teach the last two years! I agree - God is good and He is moving me and putting me where He wants me. All in His time. :)

I love having a fit bit. I'm on my second one after my hubby wanted to use it and accidently washed it. I try not to login to fit bit for a whole week and then I love to see all the steps suddenly appear. :)

What day is it, you ask? My 6-year-old just asked me if it was Friday. I love summer! I'm glad I discovered your blog. I'll be heading over to follow you on TPT. I also plan to take a look at your vocabulary packet! It looks great, and I want to improve my vocabulary instruction this year.
