New School Year and FREEBIE!

I have 2 weeks left of summer vacation and am hoping to be able to get into my classroom by next Wednesday.  I am so jealous of seeing so many bloggers in their classroom working and organizing this summer.  I have moved classrooms AGAIN!  Yes, 17 classrooms in 16 years:(  Hoping this is it for a while.

Every year in a new classroom is definitely a fresh start.  This is the first time I am actually moving back into a classroom I was previously in. (This is a first!) Did I mention it has a huge walk in closet??  I will post pictures when I finally get in:) 

I am linking up with Amanda at Teaching Maddeness and sharing some of my New {School} Year Resolutions. 


1.  I will keep my teacher space (desk??) neat and organized.  I tend to be a stack and pile girl and need to STOP doing this.  Its not expected by others because I am super organized with files and bins and everything HAS a place. 

2.  I want need to become more computer literate! Jumping into blogging and, hold onto your seats, TpT, is REALLY out of my comfort zone.  I am truly amazed by the support of other bloggers.  I will continue to learn and grow (and promise not to throw my laptop across the room!) for myself and my students. 

3.  I would like to work on some Tpt products that are needed in my classroom.  As I have said before, I am resourceful and love to support the many talented teachers out there.  Why reinvent the wheel?  I don't intend to...  So to get off to  a good start, I have uploaded my first product to my TpT store.  Please check out my TpT store, upload my first TpT FREEBIE , and like my store while you are there:)

Ok, how can I copy this from TpT so its NOT FUZZY!!  See what I mean??

4.  Finally, I LOVE taking pictures, but tend to wait until May to print them and start class memory books.  This year, I have purchased (see, resourceful!) School Days Scrapbook by Run! Miss Nelson's Got the Camera and can't wait to get started.  I WILL NOT WAIT UNTIL MAY!
