August Currently

I maybe 3 days late for currently with Oh' Boy 4th Grade, but it is technically the first Monday of the month.  Plus I am still on Summer Mode until Thursday. ;)


Listening:  I am a bit obsessed with the news.  I try to watch it every night at 5:30 Central time.  I am a big fan of ABC World News.  I also have started listening to NPR.   They tell some really interesting stories. 

Loving:  This sweet face is my new puppy Lola!  She has been with me for about a week now.  She is adjusting great and beginning to show her personality.  She is so little right now, but soon she is going to be a big girl.  


Thinking:  This morning I bought football tickets to the Mississippi State vs. LSU game.  I am going with a couple of my roommates from college.  Its going to be a sweet reunion and a good football game,

Wanting & Needing:  These go together.  I only have days left of my summer break.  Two to be exact, so of course, now I am wishing I had a few more days.  Don't get me wrong!  I am really excited to go back and meet my new kiddos.  My classroom is coming together very nicely.  I can't wait to share it with y'all! I just need to get motivated to work on the list I have going in my head.  Or I can at least create a list.

B2S RAK: The first day of school is always stressful.  I think anyone who is a teacher can agree.  Our job that day is get the child in the correct spot, feed them, and make sure they go home to right way.  If we can do that then the first day was a success.  I really want to make a treat for my fellow second grade teachers to have on the first day.  I am thinking something easy like homemade cookies.  Just a little something to say we made it through the first day!    Because every teacher knows during Back to School time it is important to celebrate the small victories!
