Anyways, here is a little about me! Place in heaven for MS teachers! Someday I will kick the habit, but I’m not ready yet. School suppl...

Ramblings of a sleep deprived teacher. Mother’s Day Silhouettes. July 3, 2015. July 3, 2015. Of being that creative Pinterest teacher. You know the one-everything is always in order, every art project is created with intricate details as if created by an angel, but let’s be real…that’s just not me. As much as I try, I’m just not there. And I have very. Students who are very good at putting their own touch on things. So I like projects that a little abstract means a lot of extra beautiful. When we are don...

https://buildingbrilliance.wordpress.com/2016/05/11/we-all-could-use-a-little-encouragement
Ramblings of a sleep deprived teacher. We all could use a little encouragement…. May 11, 2016. September 6, 2016. I’ve been in kindergarten at a private school the last 5 years. I’ve heard the horrors of standardized testing, but never really had to deal with it. It sucks. Big time. I have had more students cry in the last few weeks than in the entire year combined, and yes, there have been days where I shut my door at lunch and cry too. It just sucks. I’ve given up so many lunches lately! If you are int...

Ramblings of a sleep deprived teacher. It’s a CELEBRATION! 8211; Dollar Resources ALL DAY! July 20, 2015. July 20, 2015. What if I wasn’t really that great of a teacher? What if I made a really bad error and didn’t catch it? I had these huge fears, but I had two beautiful, amazing friends who gave me such encouragement to put myself out there. My sweet friend, Amy, had just started a small business and I was inspired by her drive. Another beautiful friend, Lindsey. I am so grateful for them! Here are the...

Ramblings of a sleep deprived teacher. How to Make an Animated TPT Banner. September 22, 2015. September 22, 2015. Oh friends, I can’t be the only one who noticed these animated header boxes popping up all over, can I? No, that’s absurd. Someone else has noticed it too, right? Well, I wanted one. Who wouldn’t? Problem was, I didn’t have the slightest fancy how to make one! I’m not going to claim perfection, but I’m definitely please with how it turned out. Want to make your own? Once there, change the pi...

It was such a great time of relaxing and getting away…something we probably should do more often.

Here is a little preview of the activities put in the packet:. And Erin at kinderdragons.blogspot.com. If you wan...

This week, our goal was to create our own masterpiece. I have been working on this Community Helpers unit throughout June. And I just kept making it bigger, and bigger, and bigger, because I don’t really like editing and was procrastinating on it (anyone able to empathize with me?

Classroom Organization – Building Brilliance
https://buildingbrilliance.wordpress.com/2016/04/28/classroom-organization
Ramblings of a sleep deprived teacher. April 28, 2016. April 28, 2016. I’m not about to pretend to be the most organized person on the planet (because trust me, I’m not even close! But I am one of those people that needs my environment to be organized in order to feel like I have some semblance of control…especially in my classroom where my life too often feels like umm…kind of, semi-organized chaos (am I right? I might have temporarily lost my mind. It wasn’t pretty. I wish I had a before picture, becau...
