Summer Bucket List

ByElizabeth S.

I’m joining in the fun to share what my plans will be in a few weeks!  I’ve got 13 days left.  Not that I’m counting.  I’m joining Hadar, April and Teri :

Here are a few things on my bucket list:

1.  Figure out who makes that border (the loopy one with the sewing stitches)…if you know, please comment below because I want it to make labels for my classroom library. {Possibly before summer break, so does that count?} 

2.  While I’m organizing…I’m going to organize EVERYTHING in my house:

I may even slap a label on my son.

3.  I’m painting two rooms:  Our 1/2 bath and our kitchen. 

The kitchen will be this lovely shade:

Not sure of the bathroom yet.  I’m also going to be making curtains for both rooms. 

4.  Recovering the pool lounge chairs.  I did this last year with Sunbrella fabric and it worked!  However, the fabric didn’t last the winter season.  This winter, I’m going to either put the chairs indoors or finally convince my husband to make me these:

5.  Spend time with my family and friends lounging by our pool!  Probably Definitely with a few of these:

6.  Travel-Our French Exchange student from last year is visiting us in July.  We will be going to the mountains to go camping or glamping  and then driving to Oklahoma to visit my husband’s family. 

7.  Possibly plan some bloggy meet-ups…like hopefully this one:

8.  Plan and make more things for my classroom.  I’m going to be studying the Common Core, too.  Advice?

9.  Read!!!!!!!!!!!  {all sorts of trash….what will I do when I’m finished with Mr. Grey?}

So, what’s on your bucket list this summer?  Go link up!

Reading Rotations

ByElizabeth S.

I’ve been as pleased as punch with my Math Rotations.  I’ve been implementing this “way of teaching” now for about a month and feel like I’ve worked out the kinks.  Mostly.

  4. I love those borders, too, and always wondered where they came from. Thanks for letting us know! Did you purchase them yet? I was wondering if it was easy to edit them because it says: A crisp, high quality, 300 DPI, 8×10″ PDF file featuring 8 EDITABLE 3.5″ x 2.5″ label/cards (as well as detailed instructions outlining how to use the editing feature).Thanks!Lori (luvyorkies@gmail.com)Teaching With Love and Laughter
