Preschool Themes

I have always loved being able to do themes based on the interest/need in our classroom. My first year in the classroom in a school setting, I changed themes weekly. I quickly decided I didn’t like that. My nuggets had 6 hours of school a week and it was SO much work to change everything […]

Year 3. Month 2.

Month 2✅ I’ve never been asked “can I smell you?” (or some variation) so much in my life🤣 This teacher survived Halloween 2019 as a mint-scented Mr. Sketch marker! October was a little better than September. Still hard. Still exhausting. But I think we are finding a little groove🤞 I don’t feel so much like […]

Being real about preschool Year 3.

Here’s to being real (and a better October). September was HARD. Like my first January, hard. I questioned my sanity on a daily basis, did nothing for school at home, slept any time I wasn’t upright, left school as fast as I could, and even had to ask for help. A lot of help. I […]

Teacher Planner

Now that it’s almost time to go back to school (we start Sept. 3rd), I thought it was time to get my teacher planner ready! It has taken me several years to find “planner peace.” I started with an Erin Condren teacher planner and it was beautiful, it just didn’t work for me. Last year, […]

Classroom Tour 2019-2020

The classroom is as ready as it’s going be for Year 3! There will be a few changes coming in the next couple of weeks like adding my nugget’s pictures all over and getting a cabinet put up to store those cups and paper towels. I am so excited to start our year and get […]

Preschool Bulletin Boards: Year 1 – Year 2

I have always loved looking for bulletin board decoration ideas for my classroom (at one point, future classroom!) on Pinterest. I have also gained many ideas from the teacher Instagram community! I cut out all of my letters on my Circut Expression. I purchased it my first semester of college, Fall of 2014. That machine […]

Preschool Classroom Door Decorations: Year 1-Year 2

I have always loved looking for ideas for door decorations for my preschool classroom (at one point, future classroom!) on Pinterest. I’ve also gained many ideas from the teacher Instagram community!   I cut out all of my letters on my Circut Expression (that I purchased it my first semester of college, Fall of 2014). […]

Year 2✅

What a year this was! Way less stressful than my first, continuing to learn all sorts of new things, still trying to find balance with school/farming/life. May was busy! Our concert, finishing up end of year memory books and portfolios, and trying to keep our room as “normal” as possible. It was a little less […]
