As the first day gets closer and closer, I am slowly checking things off my never ending "to do" list! To go along with the bird/outdoor theme this year, I finally finished making the little birds for our classroom work display in the hallway! I had a hard time finding the right type of bird (they just weren't "Richardy" enough!) so I just decided to draw my own! *If you don't understand my made up word, Richardy, just see my post about Richard the class mascot!* It's getting exciting going up to the school--everyone is finishing their rooms, and the halls are starting to look bright and cheery again! Now my task is to find a cute picnic table for the writing station, organize my center baskets for reading and math, prepare for meet the teacher, plan for the first two days, finish my last bulletin board, make notebook labels, create new poem charts...the list goes on. Oh well. At least my birds are cute (and Richardy).
love your site! i have to know...where did you get those book pouches?
ReplyDeleteThanks Melanie! I got the book pouches from Really Good Stuff--they are the large ones! I think they are going to be great. I have used book boxes in the past!
ReplyDeleteWow- what great pictures! I also teach first grade and just discovered your blog!! Sooo cute!!
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely adorable. You are very creative. I just found your blog and it is a daily hit for me now. I was wondering if you could post a list of your "To Do List" for back to school. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWould you share the sheet you use for scrabble word work?
ReplyDeleteMy class is the "Brainy Birds". I love your little birds here. Can you tell me where you got the pattern? Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteaware...I drew the birds and colored them! I know, I'm crazy. I think I may have saved copies somewhere at school--if I find them, I will try to scan them to share!
ReplyDeleteThank you. That would be great!
