Here it begins...

Okay so it is Tuesday, late, and I'm getting around to blogging from last week.  Today was the official day to report back, kiddos come on Thursday.  We may probably have to reorganize, which means I'm not sure what grade I'll be actually teaching.  The hard part is... what do I teach in the meantime...because I have a feeling probably half of my class will be different--hopefully sooner rather than later!  I am excited to start Daily 5 (only teacher on staff doing this), new "rules", and some new routines. 

I even participated in  4th Grade Frolics' Monday Made It: (even though its Tuesday)  PS Thanks Tara for teaching me how to do this but I think I'm missing a step.   :)

I made these cute "seats" that I saw here:  http://grade2happenings.blogspot.com/search/label/milkcrates

And a Bucket Fillers board that came from here: http://mrsshirey.weebly.com/bucket-filling-program.html
I used paper cups and tiny rope to make the buckets so I could staple them on my board;  of course the buckets still need names, but I don't know who will be on my final roster. 

Tomorrow I have tons to do and the workday always goes by so fast!  I better fill in my plan book so I can figure out what materials I'll need.  Goodnight!
