I apologize for the lack of posts lately. My life has been quite busy, and I haven't had a lot of energy to spare on a blog post!
Here is an update involving pictures from my iPhone and some words to go along with them!
Here is my real live first teacher ID! I have to wear this around my neck all day every day at school. At least they only take from the shoulders up...
Yikes, it was a cold morning on my way to school. -11! Also, my car hit a milestone this past week: 200,000 miles! I wanted to take a picture but I was between Stewartville and Austin at 6:10am, so I didn't want to pull over to capture the shot.
Tony took me to Jenpachi for a celebratory meal for my new job! I would've taken this picture before the rice was gone, but I scarfed it right up! I can't get enough lobster sauce on my fried rice! YUM! Thanks Tony!
My first weekend as an employed teacher meant lesson plans, lesson plans and more lesson plans.....
here is my desk after some reorganizing. You should see it now, it's even better! I color coded everything. The kids think I'm a little TOO detailed....
I managed to host a jewelry party in the mix of all this. Here's my mom showing off how much free jewelry you can get as a host. I sure made out like a bandit!
My students decided to start a recycling program at our school. I was proud of their brainstorming list. They were excited that I would be proud enough to take a picture.
I made my first interactive Smartboard game. The kids had to tap each dice. Add the numbers they rolled and then multiply those numbers. They each had a BINGO card with multiplication facts on them. Whenever their fact was displayed, they crossed it off. The winner received a yummy Icebreaker Mint. It's funny how things like mints can motivate students...
Saturday night I headed out to Willow Hill to see Alan's lambs and spend some quality time with family. Here's Natalie and Simon.
Somehow this got in the mix of the Willow Hill pictures. Here's my Dad with his new DU sweatshirt! Stylin!
I didn't know where Natalie and Harvey went, but they suddenly popped out of here! BOO!
Petting Grandpa Alan's new lambs. They were quite cute!
Last night when I was putting laundry away, Luna popped her head through my clothes. What a silly kitty!
That's all for now! I have been pretty tired after all this hard work lately, but I'm still so glad I took this job. I love it thus far!
You always have such a nice smile!
