Have you ever started ten projects at once and felt your head spin around like your brain is going through a very intense wash cycle? That's where I'm at right now. My brain is MUSH. :) I spent all day yesterday working on classroom projects and re-organizing binders. It kind of looked like a file cabinet spontaneously combusted all over my home office. Just keepin' it real! I made significant progress (thankfully), and I should be able to finish up today! Tomorrow is the first team meeting of the new school year, so I am hoping to work in my classroom after I spend some time catching up with everyone at lunch. I would like to be able to drop all of my binders off and scratch that major project off of the list. As you can see, I've made some progress. I pulled some goodies back out of storage totes to snap a few pictures of some finished, half-way finished, and not even close to being finished projects. Is it bad that I just can't wait to get this stuff out of my house? The neat freak in me is crying. :)
Fortunately, I have been able to peck away at new back to school centers in the midst of all of my projects, and I am so excited to start out the school year with them! I am also happy that I can use them year-round... even if I can't fit all of them in during the first month! :) This bundle covers lots of skills like ABC order, regular verb tenses, plurals with -s, -es, and -ies, comparatives and superlative adjectives, vowel digraphs, VCCV words, and the prefixes un-, re-, and dis-. I always feel terrible posting these kinds of posts, and I know I've apologized profusely throughout the summer for turning ,my blog into QVC, but I know how the beginning of the school year is, and if you think you can use them, then I want to be able to make them available as soon as I can. :) Super sorry, friends! If you are interested though, you can check out the file HERE. Since it's a newbie, I'm also marking it down 20% through tomorrow ONLY! Have a fabulous afternoon! Don't work too hard! ;)

Looks amazing, Amanda! Love that you aligned them with the CC. I seriously feel like a crazy lady right now with all of my projects. I have become SO ANXIOUS (I know my lack of sleep and insane coffee addiction doesn't help)!

Learning Is Something to Treasure
you've gotta watch sprint cycling! weirdest/most entertaining thing EVER!
ReplyDeleteI love the book boxes with the ribbon!
ReplyDeleteA great site to use in your centers is JogNog.
JogNog is instrumental in my classroom by engaging my students in learning. I, also, do some consulting with JogNog.
