3 poster prints worth saving that Walgreens FASTDECO code for in a 16x20 print, my fave!

1. Does the process know?
This wall will hold pics of our STEM challenge creations and escape rooms. I’m on a side quest to bring back the challenges connected to our texts at least once a unit. Plus! Students love asking me to take pics of their STEM bin creations. I made the poster in Canva.

2. Library Card Reading Trackers
Books read and shared out by students. It’s equal parts decor and a celebration. These are part of the brights collection included. Go digital, neutral, individual, or however it suits your class. Comment “link” for the trackers!

3. Famous Author Posters by Kaitlyn Edington 🤩
Sharing out the faces of some of our fave authors. I love the conversations and pops of color they bring to the room. This year I’m adding book covers with them.

I’m just a sixteenth year teacher asking for fresh ideas- the kind that aren’t repackaged, repurposed, or rebranded with a new label. I want to be struck so hard by an “aha moment” that I have to share it with my team and weave it into my plans the very next day. I’ve experienced it more often than not in professional texts, so I’m buckling down on these before school starts. What else do I need to add?

Join in on the reading binge. Link in bio to this set. I also included what I’m currently reading on my Kindle at the end! 😆

There’s always a little more to explore, and Gabby Torres Gets a Billion Followers is full of so many gems I want my students to look at even deeper. Some of my favorite topics mentioned in the book were baking, Diwali, and Jacques Cousteau. Connect the book to the reader and connect the reader to the world. That’s my goal!

This More to Explore Book Companion is growing to include more novels with connected topics students can explore further through print and go pages or with the digital version premade and prepped with links. I’m leaving it 1/2 off till school starts and as it grows.

I need my summers! I need my time to miss school and get back to who I am outside of that home away from home.

This summer I’ve said I’ll cross into teaching as far as it comes to hunting for books and signing up for virtual PD that I can come back to WHEN I’m ready. Material I can digest whenever I want.

Come join us at the Classroom Design + Environment Virtual Conference when you’re ready. 25 different presenters bringing you topics on the physical aspects of your classroom and the environment that comes with it.

I have some learning to do, and I love that the materials are available for life! You can join me as I share how to lean into creating a grade level family through tech infused lessons. Yup! We’re creating those connections they so need, and we’re throwing in , , and more while we setup the space for it. 👏🏼🎉

I am PUMPED to announce that I am presenting at this year’s Classroom Design + Environment Conference where I’ll be talking all about creating a grade level family that accepts and celebrates everyone through collaborative/tech infused lessons!

This conference goes beyond the basics of aesthetically pleasing classroom decor and dives into the importance of creating an environment and atmosphere that is safe, inclusive, and warm for every student who enters the classroom.
..and it gets even BETTER! A portion of the earnings from the conference will go towards a classroom makeover for one of the attendees. You’ll have an opportunity to put your name in a drawing to win a transformation from all of the presenters at the conference.

If classroom environment and design is your jam OR you’re looking for a way to improve your classroom atmosphere, this conference is designed for YOU. With 24 presenters, 7+ hours of professional development and 24 FREE resources, you’re sure to strengthen your skills in no time.

Tickets are live for 2 weeks only. Get yours now using the link in my bio!

When that first official Saturday of summer hits! 👏🏼🎉🥳🙌🏼

This was my tenth year on my campus and my fifth in this room. I hung things on the walls as a background for them and for some sense of normalcy for me.

I love this space, but it’s what I was able to create without it this year for my virtual students that I’ll hold onto. That classroom space and family are mindsets we had to create together, and I’ll carry this year with me forever. 🤍

When there’s really no other way to put it! I made this letter after I was a legit Mr. Feeny with students I moved with in 2nd, 4th, and 5th. We had come to the end of an era! I had grown as an educator with them, and an end of year gift in the form of words seemed like the only thing that could express that.

That’s all anybody needs at the end of the year to just hear or read and come back to. 🤍

If you want a good laugh, then turn those memories from the year into MEME-ories. This took about 15 minutes and the ideas just kept coming. 👏🏼

Our district provided the idea and a folder full of images in Google Drive. Students chose which ones to use and what to caption it with. That third slide got me so good! 🤣
