Anyone else missing the Disney parks?! With everything that’s happening in the world around us, my classroom is definitely gonna need a lot of magic this year! So I’ve decided to join the tribe and I couldn’t be any more excited about it!
The 2020-2021 school year will be a lot of learning with a little magic along the way! ✨🏰

As teachers, we LOVE classroom decor! Drop your Disney Classroom decor ideas in the comments!

Last classroom selfie for this school year! It felt so eerie cleaning and closing my classroom with the uncertainty of when it will be full of learning & first grade love again. However, it gives me peace knowing that my kiddos are home safe with their families! Year 3: COMPLETE! ✅

Don’t y’all love my shirt?!

Interactive writing in full effect! We were so excited to pass the pen to draft a letter to the SSDA to inform them of our progress on the case of the silent e! 📝🕵🏽‍♀️ Circling the snap words within our letter during the share was the icing on top!

What better way to wrap up the semester than giving read aloud’s of informational texts to our kinder friends! My students loved being experts and sharing the information they learned with others! Check out their sticky notes! They are pros at marking their text!

My writing workshop is now color coded!! ❤️💛💚💙🧡
My students are able to use their writing process chart, which is kept in their writing folder, to help them create explicit next steps for their writing each day! I can even peek at their writing and immediately see where they are! This idea was heavily inspired by an amazing teacher I observed while on a school visit at Ps 249 The Caton in NY!!

Today we had our first writing celebration! 🎉 To see my firsties so excited about sharing their writing made me so proud of each of them! They worked so hard on their stories each week and to celebrate them was such a pleasure! The biggest victory is knowing that by celebrating their writing, they will be so eager to continue writing! WINNING!! 🙌🏾

This school year I’m in a new district, new school, teaching new curriculum, and of course new students. As a teacher, I am obligated to be a lifelong learner so I couldn’t be more grateful for the opportunity learn and grow as an educator as well as be a part of a district and school that promotes that!! (Cue Hallelujah choir 🎉🙌🏾) Year two will be a year of G R O W T H! Let’s do this!!

Check out the gift bag I received from at her Sip & Plan ATL event this weekend! The best gifts are the ones that set you up for success and this bag is loaded with everything needed to plan for an awesome school year! Thank you !!

P.S: I can’t wait to create goals with my firsties using Goal Setting & Tracking sheets!
・・・
How 🔥 is this gift bag? Shoutout to for including her Goal Setting and Tracking calendars. I love the concept of W.I.G. Wednesdays and it works for any grade level! (She teaches Kdg.) I also included one of my Engaging & Meaningful Lesson Plan Notebooks which is an amazing resource for quickly including engagement, integrating subjects, differentiating, and data tracking. The cute pointers were courtesy of the unavoidable dollar spot and came through with some teacher friendly hand sanitizer.

You can find both resources via the link in our bios.

Today was our class Skyzone Summer Meet Up! We jumped high, leaped into foam pits,made a shot or two at the basketball goal, and even circled up to catch up and share what we’ve been up to this summer. To say we had a blast is an absolute understatement! It was so heartwarming to see my class again after two months. Looking at this picture I am so grateful to have been their teacher! They are an amazing bunch. It’s true, you fall in love with your first group and they are forever a part of you. My heart is FULL! 🤗❤️

P.S: If you have the opportunity to meet up with your class over the summer, DO IT! You’ll be glad you did!

I’ve been wanting to do an updated introduction so the tag is right on time! Thank you ! Here are 5 things about me! ☺️💕
1️⃣: Teaching is my dream job! I’ve always wanted to become a teacher. In my childhood home my parents allowed me to convert the unfinished bedroom into my very own classroom equipped with an overhead projector, whiteboard, and anything else my mommy could find at a yard sale!
2️⃣: ✈️🌎Traveling is my favorite hobby! I cruise every summer and I’m planning a trip to Barcelona, Spain for my birthday in April!
3️⃣: Gospel/Life music is a DAILY STAPLE in my life!!!! 🎼🙏🏾The praise & worship that took place in my car everyday during my first year of teaching was absolutely necessary! If you’re riding with me these days it’s a guarantee that from my all time favorite artist is blasting through the speakers! I got tickets to his show in Atlanta in September and I am ECSTATIC about it! 🙌🏾
4️⃣: I’m the oldest of three children. I have two younger brothers (yes I’m the only girl 💁🏽‍♀️) and our parents have been married for 26 years!!
5️⃣: I cannot go to bed without a night snack! Blame my daddy, he started the tradition! 🤷🏾‍♀️
