This week I was able to attend a Whole Brain Teaching Conference with Coach B!  What an amazing experience!  Which spurred me to complete an Average Google Spreadsheet for when I start off with this program this coming school year.

 So - since I was on this high of Whole Brain this and teaching this - I decided to start on my students' data notebooks.  This took a little bit of time, but I think it is about how I want it, so I put it on TeachersPayTeachers.  I am hoping to get the majority of the things that I have made throughout the year up there.  It is not as well made as blogs that I frequently visit, but I figured you can't get anywhere if you don't first try.  So try I will, and here is my first item on TeachersPayTeachers that actually has a Title Page!

So as I am just gearing up with my School Preparations I had a little set back and then almost with in the same time, I felt it as a blessing, that I am going to move classrooms again.  I had a break last year, but I moved the year before.  I am moving to the classroom next door to where I am at, but instead of the one window I currently have, I will now have TWO.  I am so STOKED about having more natural light.  I have missed that these past two years.  I have also figured out what my classroom theme is as well.  WESTERN.  Here are some of the things I am planning on doing!Perfect for my western theme---but too expensive right now :( Western-Themed Super Improvers Wall (Whole Brain Teaching) They used CTP's Western Hats 6" Designer Cut-Outs! Great classroom idea! Second Grade Rodeo | 31 Incredible Bulletin Boards For Back To School
Aren't these so cute!  I cannot wait to get going with this and make this happen!

So, as I said I have to move rooms, and I've done a little to get things going this past week, but I also started with my lists :(  YIKES I seem to be a Queen of Lists around this time of year.  This is only a small amount.  
I am just happy my district is putting on a District Pinterest Party this coming month.  Maybe I can get all of my centers and stuff ready to go, so that will be one last thing that I have to worry about when I have to move classrooms.

My new guilty pleasure!  I do love summer television (most of the times) especially when I get something like this.  I love these types of shows.  Something both my husband and myself can really get into together!

How was your week?

    1. That sounds like so much fun! - I love Giveaways, however I think if I was the only one to enter there would still be some glitch in the system and I wouldn't win :) I love the thrill of entering though, so I will definitely stop by on the 11th! Thanks for leaving a comment!
