Friday Freebie – Planning Pages
Happy Friday! This week flew by, and I’m not complaining about that but I would definitely love for summer to slow down just a little! Of course, this next freebie is sure to get you in back-to-school planning mode, so I suggest downloading these free Preschool Teacher Planning pages, storing them somewhere safe, and walking away from the computer before they suck you in. Enjoy your summer weekend and come back to them another day, like maybe when it’s raining!

Friday Freebie – Post-It To Do Lists
Happy Friday! We’ve almost made it to another long weekend, just one more week – and since I know that next week will feel extra long, I’m especially excited to enjoy this weekend. Did that sentence make any sense? I usually try to make sure that my Friday Freebie goes with whatever topics I’ve written about all week, usually. This week’s freebie has nothing to do with playgrounds, so if you want to check out those posts be my guest, after you download this super cute freebie! The list-maker in me could not resist sharing this editable To Do List for Post-It notes from Brooke Brown. I think I’m in…

Make your lesson plans work for you
I’ve always believed that your lesson plan should be more than just activities listed on a piece of paper. Your lesson plan should guide your day and help you feel more organized, confident, and prepared to start the day. To make your lesson plan work for you, it’s helpful to evaluate how it is formatted. Think about how you use your lesson plan. Do you follow it like a schedule? Do you pick and chose activities depending on your students interest levels, moods, and current temperaments? Do you use it like a checklist, ensuring that you complete the activities and meet specific standards? Do you make notes on it so…

Friday Freebie – New Year Organization
Happy Friday! Happy New Year! I hope that you’ve got big plans for your last weekend before you head back to reality. I’ve had a fun, relaxing little break, but I’ve also done some planning ahead for the coming year. It’s inevitable that I will spend part of any vacation I take planning for what’s coming next, it’s just what I do. I also created some planning pages to help me out a little, so I’m sharing them with you as today’s Friday Freebie! If your resolution is to be more organized next year, then I’ve got you covered. Download these free planning pages from my TPT store, These pages…

Friday Freebie – Planner Pages
Happy Friday! I usually try to make sure that the freebie I share with you on Friday is either related to the other posts I’ve written that week or seasonal. So I have to apologize because today’s freebie is neither of those things. I know it’s the wrong time of year for a new teacher planner, but I saw these free pages, and they were too cute not to share. Plus, they’re gold, which is apparently my weakness at the moment, although I suppose it’s better that I fell in love with gold planner freebie pages and not a piece of gold jewelry… Download your planner freebie pages from Student…

Friday Freebie – Summer Packing List
Happy Friday! I am psyched to share my freebie with you today because it’s to help you get organized for summer! Download my free summer packing list and start prepping. I’ve already got a few of my own filled out – I used one for the conference that I went to last weekend, and I need to do one for the camping trip I’m going on next week, and then another for my trip to Vegas in July. What will you be packing for?

It’s time for a new planner!
One of my favorite things about July (besides my birthday, and the Fourth, and the gorgeous summer weather) has always been picking out a new planner. Yep, I’m a nerd – and proud of it! In Jr. High and High School I would get my school-issued planner and immediately start filling in important dates and color-coding pages. In college, I started creating my own planners to make sure that the pages were set up how I wanted them and to make sure that I would have enough room to write down everything that I needed to do. Over the last couple of years I’ve gone through planners like water because…

Freebie Friday
It’s Friday! This week I am especially excited because we are finally going to get away. We are going camping this weekend, with our usual camping buddies – my sister, her fiance, and our two closest friends. We are only going about an hour from home, but it is on the lake shore, and on tomorrow we get to go to Put-in-Bay. If you aren’t familiar with Put-in-Bay, it’s also been called the Key West of the Great Lakes, so the atmosphere makes it feel like we are far from home. I’m looking forward to exploring island wineries, hanging out around the campfire, and laughing a lot! Today’s freebie is…

My documentation process
Documentation is something that has become a natural piece of my job as a teacher. I am constantly taking notes about what my students are doing. It’s one of those things that I do without thinking, those notes are so important because I can take my scribbled notes and turn them into a polished documentation, having the notes already written down cuts my panel-making process in half. Even though my notes save me tons of time, the role that I’m in at my new school doesn’t leave a ton of time for creating panels and other items that I really want to do for the classroom. I’ve solved this problem…
