Clip Art Collections
I’ve shared that all 12 months of my preschool plans are now available (check those out here) – but I haven’t taken time to highlight all of my clipart sets! I’ve truly loved creating these and it’s so fun to look back at each set and notice all of the great seasonal details included. Here are all of the clipart sets that I have in both my TPT and Etsy shops. In pulling together all of these images I realized that I haven’t showed you my latest set – this is the Peppermint Wonderland bundle! I love the classic red and green for Christmas, but red and pink is definitely…

December Month of Preschool and A Major Announcement!
Have you ever gotten so into a project that you completely forget what day it is? Or does that just happen to me? I’m so sorry that I didn’t have a post up on Wednesday, but I promise I was working on something very special! All of the preschool resources that you need for the month of December are available now (and that’s not even the major announcement). This December set is truly so fun. I’m the kind of teacher who leans heavily into the holidays, so please note that this set is almost all Christmas related. If that isn’t a good fit for your classroom I completely understand! I’m…

November Lesson Plans!
It’s officially here! The November Month of Preschool set is available! This collection of activities just my be my favorite month yet. It can be tricky to navigate Thanksgiving and all of the different family and historical aspects that come with it. The learning experiences included in this set cover the holiday and related themes in developmentally and culturally appropriate ways, while still being tons of fun. There is a heavy focus on the holiday, including themes of families, gratitude and thankfulness, traditional Thanksgiving foods, and baking. I’ve added some brand new activities, and even a few that are only available as part of this set. Here’s a sneak peak…

Preschool Teacher Products 2023
I’m giving you even more ideas for your Amazon Big Deal Days wishlists today! Over the years I’ve narrowed down my absolute favorite products that I, as the teacher, NEED to have. Here’s my list: (all links are affiliates, your support is TRULY appreciated!) I use these zip pouches for literally everything. They are one of my all-time-favorite Amazon purchases. This size can fit a whole notebook or legal pad, so I can easily keep all of my notes, projects, and copies organized. I’m obsessed with my Bogg Bag and this leopard print one is definitely on my wishlist. I love the structure of this bag, and that it can…

September Plans are Here!
Every time I get to post another month of preschool plans from my Month of PreK sets I do a little happy dance because I KNOW how helpful these would have been to me, as a classroom teacher. Being able to offer all of these resources, planned and organized, is a game-changer for the most over-worked and under-appreciated teachers out there! All of the preschool lesson plans and activities for September are available now, here’s a preview of what’s included:

Buffalo Plaid Clipart
If you’ve read my post from Monday, then you know that I am feeling ALL the fall vibes. Working on this clipart set definitely added to that! Nothing says fall quite like buffalo plaid, so buffalo plaid school supplies felt like a natural fit. Now that these cuties are posted in both my TPT and Etsy shops, I’m giving myself full permission to lean into all things autumn – you should too (after you snap up this set of course)!

Expectations for the first week of school
TPT shared this image on their instagram this week and it really stuck with me – probably because it’s exactly the kind of reminder that I always need during the first week. There’s so much pressure to jump back into a full-on routine and do all the things, but that’s not healthy for us as adults, and it can create a lot of stress for our students. Setting realistic expectations for the first week of school makes such a difference! I’m a planner, you know that, so for me this looks like getting out my calendar and really assessing what each day will look like and what I can actually…

It’s that time…
Summer is as much a mindset as it is an actual period of time. It’s always about this time of year that the mindset starts to shift away from carefree sunny days and towards preparing for the next school year. While I may not always be excited to see summer go, Making the most of this opportunity to set myself up for success in the coming year is also something that I enjoy (that’s how you know you’re a teacher). If you’re considering making some changes, updating your classroom procedures, or introducing new methods, then here are some of my past posts that might offer some inspiration. Happy back to…

Summer Plans!
This summer is going to look very different for our family – it’ll be the first summer that my girl and I will be home together all summer long. The idea of giving her a fun summer while I’m still working stresses me out a bit, so I took some time to do the one thing that always puts my mind at ease, some serious planning! If someone asked me to choose ONE word to describe myself it would definitely be the word “planner.” I truly love to organize my thoughts, lay them out on paper and fill in any missing pieces. It helps me feel in control and gives…
