August Currently

Oh' Boy Fourth Grade is hosting a Think Write Share linky party about what we're doing currently! Here's my list...
After I wrote it, I realized that I didn't say how much I want one of Hadar's signs from Etsy! I especially want this one:
Also, I wanted to share a few pictures from my adventures in my classroom today. My goals for today included emptying out a few cabinets and file cabinets. I didn't get everything done that I wanted, but I definitely made a dent. While I was emptying one little cabinet, I found a huge stack of records. What this tells me is that clearly no one has cleaned out my classroom in like 30 years!
In that huge pile of books I shared yesterday, I also came across this old science book. Can I just say: why do photographers have kids make these stupid faces??
And lastly, when I was about to leave, I realized that I couldn't find my phone in the big mess that I had made. I ran to the office to call myself so I could find it, and while I was in the office I found my basket for next year, along with my next-door teacher friend's basket!! This made my day; I feel like a real teacher now!! Yay!
I think tomorrow I might try to tackle the library... wish me luck!! And link up with the partay!

  2. Dollar Tree for book baskets or any "true" dollar Store, of course $ spot at Target.

    About those records, A gal I know found some, and sold them (via ebay, etsy or consignment store) and made $$$$ for her classroom...just a thought, same with old textbooks ....

    Just a thought ....keep us posted !

  3. Just found your blog and became your newest follower!! I will have to link up. First I have to think of all of my answers!! It is such a great feeling to get rid of stuff in our classrooms, but it's hard to throw things away that you think someone else might want or make a great discovery on how to use it!!
