Happy President's Day to ME! :)

Happy President's day... and HAPPY DAY OFF to other teachers in my district!  A lot of my teacher friends in other districts do not have the day off.... this must be what it feels like when THEY have a day off that I don't have....  it's epic!

Today's mission: catch up on organizing my out-of-school-life.  Things aren't too crazy, but there are projects unfinished... errands that have not been crossed off the to-do list... and here I am: blogging. :)  I will say my lesson plans rock for this week {maybe there is a field trip scheduled for Wednesday... hello even short-ER week!}

I am so in love with Scrappin' Doodles.  Ever since I have started purchasing A-DOR-A-BLE clipart from them, I am a happier teacher {it's the little things in life}.  I have even CUTER workstations than before and my kiddos LOVE my anchor charts and other activity pages with a l'il clipart surprise on them.  {anything for engagement.... right???}  Check 'em out if you haven't!  President's Day stuff is a tad on sale - well worth it!

How nerdy am I that I am PUMPED about reading my new Abe Lincoln book tomorrow?!?!?  My students grew an obsession last year, and while they don't need me to read it to re-learn facts.... I cannot wait to see their excitement when I pull it out of the book back for social studies tomorrow.

Okay!  Back to cleaning up my orphan room so I can stop and make me some lunch in a little bit! :) :)

Happy President's day!  I am truly thankful for the leaders of our country.  Sometimes I do not agree with their decisions, but I believe in a God that is moving in all areas of the world.  He is in control and we are not alone.
