The Teaching Bug: June 2013

I CAN'T believe it! My 1st Year teaching is over and I'm STILL alive!!!

Y'all are not going to believe the year I've had! I feel like such a bad blogger...but in my defense, I want you to STOP reading right now and take a trip down memory lane to YOUR very first year teaching. That should explain why I have been MIA this whole year. Now, back to the business at hand, I promise that I will try to make it up this summer with lots and lots of posts but I can't guarantee anything during the school year because *yikes!* it's going to feel like my second-first year all over again. You see, I have been notified that this coming school year I will be teaching 5th grade and since I have never ever ever taught 5th grade I am thinking that I am going to be super duper ooper shmooper busy again. But I will try my very very best to post every now and then so that none of you think that I have been captured by vampires and/or zombies. If I recall, I left off last summer promising that I would share my finished classroom pics. Well, drum roll please, here they are... I hope you like them and I look forward to reading all of your comments. Also, if you like any of my superhero stuff it is still available in my TpT store. On the last week of school all of the teacher's voted on a couple of themes and there was a tie between Candy Land and Around the World so as soon as I am told which one it will be you can expect lots of classroom decorations on that theme. I just wanted to give you a heads up so that you can check back for new posts and items in my TpT store. As Abby would say, I am *12 kinds of excited* to be teaching 5th grade Reading/Language Arts next year and I look forward to all of your advice and ideas about that as well so comment away! Oh, and for giggles... this was me this year during Mad Scientist week! Ha!
