    I can’t believe that December 7th was my last post. I have been a very bad, bad blogger!! One of my goals for the new year is to take more pictures in the classroom and blog more- so hopefully, this blog will get more love! :o)
    I’m linking up today with a fellow Georgia Peach- Teachery Tidbits, to share my Top 10 Insta Pics!
    To get this information, I visited a website called Iconosquare (only because you have to pay for the app on your phone to get all access, plus, I blog from my computer) – it takes a few minutes for the site to gather all of your statistics but then, it gives you more information than you could probably ever want to know! LOL 
    (You follow me on Instagram, right? @ideasbyjivey)
    So, without further ado, here are my top 10 pics based on likes and comments!

    1/28/2014- Tagged by @collaborationcuties – I’m trying to GET HOME!!! We didn’t release early and the traffic is insane. I have a good inch of snow on my car! that is #widn – how about you @pinkadotselementary and @elizabethsupan?

    4/3/2014 – I mean really. There’s just no need to be ugly and rude. #tpt #netiquette #nastygramshurt #feedback

    Feedback is soooo important to sellers- we want to make sure what we’ve created is helpful and useful… but there certainly is a way to leave constructive criticism without being hurtful and nasty! I sure do appreciate all of the wonderful, supportive, loving followers that I have gained this year!
