We Will Never Forget... It's true. Forever and always we believe most of us will wake up on this day remembering exactly where we were. What we were doing. Who we were with. It is a day we saw horrific tragedy no matter how close or far we were, but from it came incredible strength and courage and triumph. Each year that passes, we realize our little friends were less a twinkle in their parents eyes than the year before, yet it is something we must discuss. It has become history to them, but ...

We Will Never Forget…America, the Beautiful Freebie
Meet Me Mystery Bag
Building a class community is as important, if not more so, than all the reading, writing, and 'rithmetic we can cram. If we don't get along with each other, it can make for one extremely long school year, and we're NOT about to let that happen! Seriously, if Day 7 feels long, than we are in for a lot of grape feeding and fanning heartache come Day 177. But, fortunately we're off to a fabulous start! They are motivated, and kind, and they love to talk! A lot! Like us! So, guess who's winning ... VIEW POST

Love at First Day Sight…
They are wonderful, delightful, adorable and ooohhh so little. How soon we forget having just parted ways with 2nd Graders a few short months ago. It was love at first sight. But, it was Day One. We know. It was a whirlwind of day and we're beat, but it was a fun first day! Our school bell rang at 8:25am. We started the day off with a chuckle when our Firstie Friend next door delivered some "mid-morning" chocolate. We giggled because it was only 8:15am, but apparently felt like mid morning ...

First Day Jitters & Classroom Quick View
What a week... We don't know about you guys, but we are T-Minus 9 hours and 8 minutes from the first school bell of the year, and we can hardly wait. We're so excited to meet our new batch of fantastic first graders, but we're totally nervous too. It doesn't seem to matter how long we've been teaching, we always get the first day jitters. Do you get nervous for the first day? Typically, Christy's brain is so full of ideas tonight, she crashes. Tammy on the other hand, sits with a brain so ... VIEW POST
Technology Tip Tuesday…Tardy
We spent Technology Tip Tuesday buried in our completely cluttered classroom. But, we're making progress AND they finally turned on the air conditioning! Ahhhh....We can do this! Sorry for the Tardy Technology Tuesday link up ~ We love technology like the next teacher, and were so excited to share a few gems we enjoy using with our friends. We use each of these free online programs in our classroom and in the computer lab when we have a chance to teach whole class on the smart board. We are ... VIEW POST
