Quicker Lesson Planning
I’m a firm believer in planning. I know for a fact that having a great plan laid out and fully prepped makes a massive difference in my week. At the same time, getting everything planned and ready takes so much valuable time. It can be really easy to sacrifice a calm, chill week in order to get back a few minutes right now. As we head into September, a month that seems to be the poster child for re-focusing on routines and schedules, I thought I’d give you some resources that will help make your planning super fast and easy. This way you’ll get the time now AND be fully…

Disney Cruise Countdown Workbook
I’ve been planning this cruise vacation for a year now, so I’ve had a lot of time to think and create. I knew that I wanted to have some kind of countdown to keep up the excitement and help with the “when are we leaving?” questions. It was also really important to me that my daughter learn a little about the ship and the ports we’re visiting so that she feels as prepared as possible, and also gets a little history and cultural understanding. Of course I couldn’t find exactly what I was looking for, so I made it myself. I created a workbook that accomplishes both of those goals…

Autumn Bucket List for the Classroom
Happy Friday! I have another freebie for you this week. I started creating seasonal bucket lists for my family when my daughter was very young. I was always looking for things that our family could enjoy and I would find myself saying “oh, we should have done that” after a seasonal opportunity passed. These bucket lists kept us busy and gave us plenty to look forward to. I realize that there are a ton of these available on pinterest, but it’s really hard to find options that work for the classroom. Most include a lot of outings, baking or cooking ideas, and movies. The one that I’ve put together is…
