I started this blog several years ago when I uploaded my first products to TPT. When life got busy as my daughter got older, I began blogging less and less. Two years ago my family went through one of our darkest times and blogging was non-existent. At 12 weeks into my second pregnancy we were given devastating news. Our child had Trisomy 18 and was not expected to make it past the second trimester. We trusted God's plan for us and continued through pregnancy knowing our son would not survive. At 33 weeks he passed and we had a stillbirth. The next two years our marriage was rocky at best. I was depressed and didn't realize it. My husband had developed panic attacks and was suffering from anxiety, which led to self medicating with alcohol. Fast forward now... we are happier and healthier than ever! GOD is so good! One of these days I will blog all about that time in our life as I do think now part of my purpose in life is to share God's faithfulness during the darkest of times.
However, today I am SO happy to be back to the blogging world and to share all things school with you guys! I love to share and to get inspired from ALL the amazing teachers out there.
2018-2019 Classroom Tour
Several years ago I transitioned my classroom over to a flexible seating classroom after being inspired my some great teachers in my school. I will NEVER go back!
When my students ever the classroom, they choose each day where they sit. I love giving them choice and control over their learning.
You will notice LOTS of blank space. I believe in adding to my walls with my students throughout the year. This way they are more likely to use the resources that we hang up.
I do not have a traditional desk either. My husband built me this L shaped top to sit on top my two plastic drawer towers. This is where I keep my computer. Then, I work at the horse shoe table with my kiddos. I don't know about you, but I NEVER had time to work at my desk. It just became a spot to pile up stuff.
Below the "Your Mindset is Everything" we put up all the quotes we learn for Growth Mindset.
