Monday Made It {FINALLY!}

July 28, 2014

I am SO excited I can actually link up with Tara this week for Monday Made-It, and I have SCHOOL related (not just house) made-its to share!!!

I worked in my classroom for the first time all summer this week, and only for a few hours. They did some serious carpet cleaning, so…….. there is a lot of rearranging to do.

Working in the classroom with Ideas by Jivey

I decided in all the rearranging of furniture that I’d get rid of my teacher desk. (GASP!) So you know what that means…? TEACHER TOOLBOX TIME!

I ended up not using the big chevron paper because the print was sooo big. I printed the labels and taped them onto the paper, then taped it into the drawer. (If you could use these labels, you can grab them for free here!) I also used teal “Duck Tape” duct tape to cover the outside. I’m super excited about getting it into my classroom!

 My second made-it has been a work in progress ALL SUMMER. Many people have been asking for it and thankfully, patiently waiting for it.

All 40 of the books I made mentor sentence units for are included in this 300+ page pack! Basically, your reading plans are done for the year, and you have a weekly writing prompt!

Thanks so much to Kristen at Ladybug’s Teacher Files, I was motivated to make my own Pinterest board covers!

Aren’t they cute? I made them match my blog design. :o) Do you follow me on Pinterest? I have 4 main teaching boards of my own, but I also pin a lot to collaborative boards.

Lastly, I decided to make some cute covers for my binders at school. (I *try* to keep all of my unit plans, games, and activities together in binders… stacks still accumulate though.)

This might have been my most productive week so far… but today is my first day back at school, so be ready to see lots of pictures of room organization and getting ready for the first day! (August 5th!! EEEEEK!)

Well THIS is awesome!! The Bender Bunch buried a pumpkin full of trash in October and dug it up today... what a great way to show students what happens in a landfill! Happy 🌎 Day!We dug our pumpkin up today that we buried in October and all that was left was this pile of trash!! πŸŽƒ This is the greatest Earth Day 🌏 experiment for teaching students all about the importance of recycling and what happens to our garbage!! Students are just amazed to see that all of the food we put in, including the pumpkin have turned to compost, while their garbage still remains!! 😲 ... See MoreSee Less
