Mrs. Wheeler's Linky

I am so excited to be linking up with Mrs. Wheeler's First Grade! 

First of all I cannot believe how fast this summer went. 

This will be my second year teaching and I cannot wait to embark on another adventure!

Last year I did a superhero theme, however there were not many superhero things like there is now. 

But I wanted to change it and do a chevron theme.

I saw these beautiful chevron borders on Creative Teaching Press, however I also found them at Lakeshore. I can't wait to put them up, but I am still thinking on what color I can use as the background...any ideas? 

Continuing on my chevron theme, I searched all over Teachers Pay Teachers, and I LOVED the chevron products made by A Cupcake For The Teacher. Here is my favorite product that I purchased from A Cupcake For The Teacher's Teachers Pay Teachers site:

Can't wait to get into my classroom to put all of my chevron things up!

Sweet Summer

I can't believe it is already the middle of July... this summer is flying by!

Since the last day of school, I went back to school at San Diego State University to do the second part of my masters program. I am enrolled in a 3 summer Masters of Education in Reading program. I have been busy with that (even though I procrastinated like crazy!), but now I can finally relax and do things for my classroom. But I am excited that next summer I will be getting my masters! Woo hoo!

I know my Rocky has been happy that I am on summer vacation!

I am so happy we adopted him, because he is always there to keep me company and put a smile on my face.

Slowly I have been going Back To School shopping.

On Instagram I follow a lot of amazing teachers, and one of them said they buy their library book bins at Big Lots. So I went down to my local Big Lots and I was so excited to see them there! These bins are big and sturdy, so I had to get them. Plus they come in great colors! I think the colors I am going to be using will be blue, pink, green. And I am going to do a chevron theme as well. 

I have seen this frame all over Pinterest and I wanted to make one, so I finally got the things and did it! I went to Michael's and bought a foam board, cut out the middle, and taped the ends with a bulletin board boarder (which I also found at Michael's). The words I got from Teachers Pay Teachers. 

It turned out super cute! I can't wait to take pictures of my kiddos with this.
