You ARE Appreciated!

Have you heard?

There's going to be another BIG sale on TPT. Everything in my TPT store will be 20% off and you can get another 10% off at checkout by entering the code TAD13. That is a 30% savings on all my products! BIG savings. If you already know what grade you are teaching next year, this could be your opportunity to get stocked up on back to school stuff or if you're like me, and you just are hoping to get through this year, you might want to focus on activities and lessons that will get you to summer.

I'll be joining you at check-out on Tuesday and Wednesday!

SPARKS! Lighting A Fire

I had the absolute pleasure of attending SPARKS weekend last weekend, hosted by my union, NJEA. It was a big mystery and that remains part it so I can't spoil much, except for how beautiful Cape May, NJ is. There was great bonding time with other young teacher and new tips I learned - which I began to implement in my room and will show off soon!

Happy April Fool's Day!

I pulled two pranks on my kids today! Before spring break I promised them brownies if they brought in their report today; well they did … and so did I!

I left the brownie tray on my table on day and the kids kept bugging - well when I was ready I handed out the word search … the one where none of the words were in the puzzle. After about 5 minutes of struggles and moans they figured it out. I apologized and said they deserve brownies for falling for my prank … when I opened the tray, they got mad but got a good laugh at the Brown-Es. I won today!


Oh … and my Principal fell for the Brown-Es too, she made me feel bad because she was hungry!

Spring Break

I've finally had a few days off - the first since winter break way back when. I enjoyed my week off although I didn't do much! Let's see; I joined Six Flags for the season, celebrated Passover with my family, and visited my college.

I guess my favorite part was visiting my college - I spoke to a group of students about finding a job and the woes of first year teaching. The best part . . . the gift I walked away with!


I also spent some time uploading some new freebies to my TPT store so pay it a visit! Enjoy your Easter weekend and what is left of Passover!
