Boo’ed Linky!

October 15, 2012 By fancyfreein4th

I blogged a couple of weeks ago about Boo Grams and Cynthia from 2nd Grade Pad created a blogger version of the game so of course I am on board for this! This is what you do…  Choose a fellow blogger that has MORE followers, another that has about the SAME number of followers, and last, someone that has LESS followers. Highlight their blogs with links to encourage others to check them out and make sure to let your fellow bloggers know that you shared about them.  Lastly, leave them some love by offering them a goody from your store as their “treat.”

Here are my three.  Just click on their button to check out their AMAZING blogs.

I started blogging in the July and fell in love with Tara from 4th Grade Frolics  and her Made it Monday linky. I swear that she helped me stay on track and not procrastinate all my teachery duties this summer because her linky held me accountable! She still has this linky party so check it out every Monday, link up if you haven’t and share in the many amazing ideas out there!

Next is….  

Little Lovely Leaders
Bridget from Little Lovely Leaders, who is an absolute doll! You can tell she is one hardworking lady! I love all of her products and ideas.  She has such a cute and organized classroom!  Take a peek here. I love how she has little clipart pictures of the supplies that her students will need for the assignment/activity they are going to do- that way the kids can just look at the board and know they need their scissors, glue and crayons out.  Simple yet BRILLIANT idea!

Lastly is….

I Love My Classroom

Emily from I Love my Classroom .  She has a lot of AMAZING ideas to share.  I got the idea of my Whole Class Journals from her and adapted them to meet my classroom’s needs. She shares a lot of amazing, fun and creative things weekly. If you haven’t subscibed to her yet, go and DO IT!

Took a mental health day, and I don’t feel guilt Took a mental health day, and I don’t feel guilty about it at all.  We heard last week that we are remaining in distance learning for the rest of the year and I’m coming to terms with having to switch grade levels (and classrooms) next year 😬. So, today I took a day to myself, got a hair cut, finished a book and I’m feeling good. I’ll let tomorrow wait and enjoy the rest of today. To all my fellow teachers out there, keep on keeping on and it’s ok to take a minute (or a day off) for yourself.
Spending this lazy Sunday afternoon writing 💕Va Spending this lazy Sunday afternoon writing 💕Valentine’s to my students. I am writing different figurative language notes on each postcard. Then we are going to share them on GoogleMeets during our morning meeting and vote which figurative language is on each student’s post card! You can take the teacher out of the classroom but they will still find ways to engage; no matter the distance! This year I have to mail these to my students ((because of distance learning)) but who doesn’t love some good ole snail mail 🐌 💌.
This isn’t the best picture, but that’s not th This isn’t the best picture, but that’s not the point...

I love being a teacher. I am aways challenged and get to be creative (especially these past 11 months). I feel at home at my school, and I’ve missed it so much since working at home. My district is in a zip code that is highly impacted with COVID-19, and we have felt the effects tremendously. Everyday, I am amazed by how resilient my students have been since their little world’s 🌍 changed on March 13th, 2020. It’s been one, wild ride, reinventing teaching, trying to stay motivated, trying to keep them engaged while feeling supported and seen. Yet,  I’m hopeful this chapter soon will end. Amidst all of the unexpected and difficult things that have happened this last year... there’s still a lot of good out there. Look at this 💛 glimmer of hope and goodness. My uncle and Father in Law just made a class set of desks for my students (plus 30 more for other kids at my school). They used their stimulus money to give back to my school community. This desk will be their own special spot, and memory of the time we learned from home. I’m feeling really grateful and I can’t wait to see past the masks and imagine the smiles that my students will have when they pick these new family heirlooms up on Friday!
Sometimes it is all about the little goals you mak Sometimes it is all about the little goals you make for 2021. Ones like drinking more water and making sure to stand while distance teaching. I miss the days of walking around the classroom, running down the the stairs to grab my class after recess and hopping into a coworkers classroom at lunch.
Cheers to the New Year. I felt like I needed a lon Cheers to the New Year. I felt like I needed a longer winter break but as soon as the school day started, it was game on. I was so excited to see my students online, ready to learn. I am constantly in awe of how resilient they are and how even though we have yet to be together in person, we have created such a supportive and close community. We giggle, we work, we do the best we can and feel good about it together.
