Back to school

I've spent the last week with my daughter (and occasionally my son and husband) fixing up my room for the coming school year. Friday was our first "offical" day back as teachers. We had a "welcome back" meeting in the morning and then in the afternoon we worked in our rooms. My teaching partner and I mapped out our first three weeks of lessons and set our schedule for the year.

My room is nearly finished. I have a couple of little things to finish and I'll be ready for Meet the Teacher Night next Friday.

I do need to get out my Cricut and cut some shapes for magnets. My teaching partner had the best idea. Make magnets to match your room theme and put your name, school phone, e-mail address and conference times on it for parents to keep handy all year long. I have "Goin' Buggy" theme this year, so I need to look for something in my Cricut carts to go with that. Butterflies, maybe?

I'll take pics and post them of the finished room soon.

  1. Butterflies is a cute idea! I can't wait to see pictures of your room Karen. I hope you have a wonderful and successful school year!
