Happy #SharkWeek! Their faces were priceless when they walked into the room today. I am so grateful for my students' parents who donated to my Amazon wish list. Here's to exploring and diving deep into the mystery of sharks! Hope your day is "fin-tastic!" NatGeoKIDS Shark Week

So good! Thank you!

Yippee…our little guy is three! Or “free” as he says 😆

Yay! Rooted for Jamal from the start...so deserving! What a great role model for his community and his students!

Thanks DonorsChoose for doubling donations for my birthday! How great would it be to have my project funded so that I can have more ease of access by moving wirelessly throughout my classroom. Feel free to check out my project, and thanks in advance! donorschoose.org/project/unteth…

“Camp Day” has been a blast so far! We’ve read spooky stories with flashlights, made forts, enjoyed s’mores, and “pitched tents.” Squeezed in some crafts and fun read alouds. “Scaredy Squirrel Goes camping” was a favorite!

Snippets from our sweet boy’s first Disney trip for his 3rd birthday. The character brunch and the monorail, along with the Aladdin magic carpet ride were his favorites! We enjoyed the family time!

You will be so missed, but they are blessed to be getting a fantastic leader!

When you’re a teacher on summer break and in the thick of potty training…you have to get creative 😂

Mixing some personal PD in between my Kindle reads this summer. Referring back to this one is a great refresher! #scienceofreading #everychildreads

We had the BEST time finishing the summer at the beach with Wyatt’s little cousin, and family. I love sharing my favorite slice of heaven on earth with this sweet boy. So grateful for the memories. ❤️ #stsimonsisland

Little teacher in training right here! He was very comfortable in my chair today!

Even the extreme heat couldn't stop this Open House from being a good time! Loved the sweet treat from the water ice truck at the end of the evening! I enjoyed seeing new and old Wildcat faces and families!

Prepping back to school goodies for my first graders and LOVING my wireless transmitter! #thankyoudonorschoose

Rocking our Goldilocks “just right” #flexibleseating choices by working quietly and independently on just day 3! Chipping away at our routines checklist a little bit each day!

One of my favorite authors/illustrators provided us some beautiful clarity when reading this book to our toddler last night. We miss our Callie girl, and are so sad our time with her was short. But we rejoice that she is dancing on heavenly dog beaches with endless raw chicken.
