HOOT Prize Pack


Hey everyone! I am so excited to show everyone my new product I made for my classroom! I have been going back and forth, back and forth about whether or not I want to do a treasure box in my classroom.

Here are the cons:
1. $
2. $$
3. $$$

If a treasure box didn't mean that I had to go buy the prizes, I would be all in! But seeing that it would be up to me to fill the treasure box, unless I could get students and parents to donate, I decided to come up with a different reward system in my classroom. I created some simple, easy to implement prizes that don't cost the teacher a cent. The cover says "Our Behavior is Something to HOOT About", but the prizes are not owl-themed. The prizes are in the form of coupons that you can print on colorful card stock, cut out, and distribute at your discretion.

You can check them out {here} at my Teachers Pay Teachers store.



I absolutely cannot wAiT to get into my classroom tomorrow! I haven't been able to work in my room AT ALL since last Wednesday and I think it may be adding to the stress of my new job. I have so many ideas floating around in my head, and without being able to implement them, it seems to be information/idea overload. My purse and school bag are filled with lists upon lists! Every time a new idea pops in my head, I jot it down. I was doing just this in the McDonald's drive through when I got honked at yesterday. Thanks for your patience, Mr. Rude Honking Man...

I have also been doing my homework and I plan on creating my own blog design FROM SCRATCH! Just waiting on my digital scrapbooking kit to arrive in my email. Here's the kit I purchased on Etsy:


I can't wait to get started :)

Moving in, Writing Posters, & a *FREEBIE*!

Is everyone having a great summer? I sure am! And now that I have my own classroom, the days until school starts seem to be ticking by at a rapid pace! For days I've been waiting to get into my classroom and begin the process of sorting through everything the previous teacher left me, and begin moving in my own belongings. My room was being worked on since last Friday, and I couldn't access it until today. When I arrived at school, geared up for a day full of sorting and organizing, I was informed I only had until 2 pm to get it all done, because they were going to wax the hallway! Don't get me wrong, I love a nice waxed hallway, but I sure have been anxious to start getting my classroom the way I want it. So nowI cannot get into my room again until Monday *sigh*, but this has given me the opportunity to shift my focus to my TpT store!

To go along with my Owl themed classroom {which I am loving more and more everyday, let me tell ya} I created some writing traits posters that will surely brighten up anyone's classroom. I sent these babies off to Staples this morning and couldn't believe how great they looked on the white card stock. It's almost a shame to have to laminate them...


If you would like to grab my Writing Traits posters, you can click {here}!

I am totally loving the bright colors! 

Now, to some of the awesome stuff I have found this week:

Since I have started my new job, a whirlwind of information has been coming my way, and as always, Cara Carroll came to the rescue. She has the best stuff, let me tell you! I am preparing documents for our Open House and wasn't sure where to start...so of course I went to Pinterest. Duh. There I found everything I needed, and they were from my favorite blogger. The fact she is a 1st grade teacher and I am a 3rd grade teacher didn't affect these documents in the slightest as they were mostly informational.

You can check them out on her blog, The First Grade Parade "Meet the Teacher Ideas and Downloads".

Now I know I love a good *freebie* so here is what I have cooked up for you. I created some simple yet cute Voice Level posters. I plan on cutting them out and gluing them to bright card stock that matches my writing posters {Staples loves me right now!} and then laminating them. They are only going to be free until the first week of school, they will then be listed for $1.00, so grab them while you can!
