So, now I plan on enjoying the last couple days of summer vacation!! I cannot believe how fast the summer has gone 🙁 I sure will miss sleeping in a little bit and mornings at the park with my girls.
I’ve really been brainstorming ways to make working on fluency more fun lately. Just having students reread a passage over and over again is sooooo boring…
I have a love/hate relationship with homework. As a teacher, I want the parents to know what we are working on in school. As a parent,…

LOVE the new classroom!! I just have a question about your Cameo- when you purchased it did you apply for the educators discount? Also, how much was it afterwards? I am seriously thinking I need one after seeing your awesome creation!!
Your room is absolutely fabulous Jodi! And to think you set it up twice-I am bowing down giving you major respect right now! Wowsers!
Love your lil craft night with the girls-such great ideas. They all turned out so cute. The clipboards are on our list.
So we just bought a Cameo yesterday because all of you are posting such fun lil ideas that you've made with them. Any words or wisdom or must haves for it? Thanks for sharing your night and your room!

TpT is having a back to school sale and I am having a linky party for bloggers that are also hosting sales in their store. I'd love you to come link up if you are planning a sale!
You had me at Pinterest Party!! But your room looks fantastic! I can't believe you had to do it twice you poor thing. Thank goodness for family helpers!!
I love all the natural light. So nice. That hallway is fabulous, too. I just want to say how jealous I am. You have finished your room twice and I'm still not done with my room once. 🙂
Love the room, it looks great and what a hallway. So excited for you. Almost finished with mine. Also love all the stuff made with the cameo, I am wanting one know too.
