Back to School 2015

On August 24, the three of us went to school. Back to school for the girls and first year of teaching for me.

I started out in 5th grade. This was my classroom. I had lots of fun with the school's social media theme this year. 

Then, I was transferred to second grade at another school because there weren't enough 5th graders for the school to have four 5th grade classes. Below is my new classroom where I am now. I am the small group teacher so I see 108 kids throughout the week in small reading and math groups. I had fun with a more cutesy theme with birds for 2nd grade.  

 

Update

My 2nd graders and my mentor teacher gave me such sweet gifts and letters on my last day. I had so much fun doing my student teaching in both 5th and 2nd grade. I can't wait til the fall so I can do the same thing and actually get paid to be there! 

We found a very low robin nest in one of our crape myrtles. We hope to see chicks soon!

 As a parting gift, I made my students pretty decorated composition books. We had some friends of the kids over and they all enjoyed making one for themselves as well.
