Everyone has a story to tell. What is yours?
Sterilite Drawers have been a key organizational tool in my classroom for years and they work well in my home office, too! I love that I can keep all of the mess separated, contained, and still keep everything looking good just by adding labels to the front of the drawers. After sharing some pictures of my Sterilite drawers on Instagram,… Read More
Every year I am amazed at just how much time and effort it takes to get a classroom ready for students. I’m not sure if it has anything to do with how much stuff I have accumulated after teaching for so many years, but let’s pretend it doesn’t! It may take a lot of work, but it’s something I enjoy… Read More
If you’re like me, you get curious about what happens in other classrooms throughout the day. I saw this linky party hosted by Where the Wild Things Learn & had to stop by and check things out. 9:00 – 9:40 Morning Routine, Corrections, Math Facts As part of our daily routine, students complete a Daily Math Review page. Our second… Read More
Okay, I feel like I’ve dipped my toes in the water today. We had our annual Meet the Teacher night. This gives us a chance to meet our students and families the day before school starts. This was probably the first year I’ve met 100% of my students. I don’t know who is more nervous – me or the students…. Read More
So I was planning to share this yesterday, but I got swept up in my classroom projects, a meeting that ran longer than planned, and my soccer game. I know Tara isn’t doing her Monday Made-It series weekly now that summer is almost finished. However, I thought I’d keep up in the spirit of things and share with you what I have… Read More
I finally crossed the threshold. I’m not sure many families know just how much time it takes to set up a classroom each year. Even after doing this for more than a decade it never seems to get any easier for me. Here is the state of the classroom I walked into: View from the inside classroom door: All my… Read More
Every student can be an entirely different person in your presence! ❤️Love this!
I absolutely loved Cece Loves Science, so when I heard the sequel had been released, I couldn't wait to grab a copy!
Cece can’t wait to earn her camping pin as an Adventure Girl! She prepares for her trip by packing everything on the list, plus a few extras. After the girls put up their tent, they head out for a hike. When a storm rolls in, Cece puts her science skills to use to save the day.
I love how this story combines an outdoor adventure with the importance of STEM skills - such a great message for kids!

I love these two books I picked up at the BOGO Scholastic Book Fair!
The Three Little Superpigs tells the story of what happened after the the pigs defeated the Big Bad Wolf. In this story, the Three Little Superpigs are enjoying their new found fame and life of fighting crime around Fairyland. Little do they know, the Big Bad Wolf has been plotting his revenge. After the Big Bad Wolf escapes from Happily Never After Prison, he goes after the Superpigs. Will he catch the Superpigs once and for all, or will the Superpigs outsmart him all over again?
The Three Little Superpigs: Once Upon a Time tells a more traditional, yet slightly varied version of the original fairy tale. This one would be perfect for comparing and contrasting two versions of The Three Little Pigs!
You can find both of these books on Amazon (affiliate links):
