<span style="color: red; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Personal: <span style="color: blue;">I have this awesome room in my house that would make the perfect master bedroom. However, it is full of junk. My goal is to clean it out this month and use it as a bedroom. I am wanting a shabby chic design bedroom so bad. Another personal goal of mine is to quit worrying about stuff so much. I worry myself sick over everything. I seriously need to get over that....</span></span></div>

<span style="color: red; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Family: <span style="color: blue;">My 11 year old daughter and I have a tradition called "Mommy and Katie Day." We have had this special day ever since she was 2. I want to spend a special day with her this month doing something really fun! </span></span></div>

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: large;"><span style="color: red;">Health:</span> Last summer I lost 20 lbs and felt so good about myself. I let my diet go through the Winter months and gained almost all of it back. I want to at least lose 10 lbs before school starts back. I also want to start Zumba classes in my area. It sounds like a lot of fun. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: large;"><span style="color: red;">School:</span> I am in the process of making as many Math and literacy centers as possible before school starts back. I have already made 3. Yay me!!!! I have a center wish list a mile long and hope to at least get half of them made this month. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Verdana; font-size: large;"><span style="color: red;">Blog/TPT:</span> I really let my blog go this year. :( I was so busy that I never had time to blog. My goal is to at least blog once a week. I also have made a few things that I want to try selling on TPT. I hope to add my first TPT item to my store this month. </span></div>

It has been way to long since I have posted. :/ I was so busy at the end of the school year that I needed just a few weeks to unwind. I also started tutoring two awesome, soon to be 1st graders, at the beginning of June. I am having a blast with them. I am enjoying the fact that I can try out my new centers during their tutoring time. So far this has been my most productive summer vacation ever. I have linked up with Farley over at <a href="http://ohboy3rdgrade.blogspot.com/2013/06/currently-july.html" target="_blank">Oh' Boy 4th Grade</a> once again for the July currently. Here is what I am currently up to.....</span><br />
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Do any of you watch the show "Supernatural"? I am totally addicted to this show!!!! I have such a crush on Dean. He is a hottie, lol. I started watching it on Netflix in the beginning of June and I am now on season 6. Yeah, I have spent many nights watching the Winchester boys, lol. I kinda feel guilty. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">I am loving this summer vacation! School got to be very stressful at the end of the year. I needed to get a break from it all. Thank goodness for summer vacay!!!! If we didn't have it I think that teachers would totally crack, lol. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">Does anyone else have a back to school "TO DO LIST" about a mile long? Mine is so big I don't know if I will ever get it all done. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"></span> </div>

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">I am so ready for my Beach vacation! Our school is starting back later this year and I have a vacation planned for the beginning of August. I am so totally excited! I get to go to the beach the week before school starts. I am so ready!!!!!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">My teacher tip is to always leave your home life at home!!! My job is like my therapy. When I am in my classroom teaching, I let go of all personal problems and focus on the children. Kindergarten is my out and I LOVE it!!! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I am currently watching "Two and a Half Men." This show is so funny. My hubby and I just love watching it. I am itching to watch tonight's American Idol. I skipped the last two seasons of this show. It got boring to me. However, this year is special!!!!! A good friend of ours, Janelle Arthur, is in the top 20 this year!!!!! Yay Janelle! She is an amazing young lady. My daughter and I got to know her from pageants. Janelle is from Tennessee and was the International Cinderella Teen a few years ago. My daughter competed in the Cinderella Scholarship program for a few years and we got to know Janelle. She is an amazing young lady and a wonderful role model for young girls. We hope that she makes it all the way. She is definitely what an "American Idol" should be! </span></div>

I have my teacher fingers crossed! I would love just one more snow day..... please mother nature grant my wish!!!!!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">I am seriously stressing over the skills that my students need to master before our dreaded T-Cap test in April. Yes, my county gives standardized assessment test to our Kindergartners. :( They are having problems with addition and subtraction so I am searching for ways to teach them that are also fun and engaging. I always start the panic mode this time of year. I think I get more stressed over the test than they do. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">I am needing to get dinner started and make a new batch of green play dough for our play dough center at school. I dread getting off the couch. It has been a WILD two weeks plus I have a cold that I can't seem to get over. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">So for the last part of my currently.... I like (love) snow and hope that we get enough to miss school tomorrow, I LOVE my family so very much and I HATE drama!!!! There seems to be a lot of it lately and I try to run from it.</span></div>

<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Hello everyone!!!! Today was a snow day for me! Yay me! I decided to catch up on my blogging and update a few post. I have been a bad blogger. ;( Now that I have updated some of the post that I wanted to catch up on, I have teamed up with Farley over at <a href="http://ohboy3rdgrade.blogspot.com/2013/02/currently-february.html" target="_blank">Oh' Boy 4th Grade</a> once again for the February Currently.

<span style="color: #ea9999; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I am watching and listening to Twilight New Moon for about the 100th time. I love the Twilight series. I wish I had a hunky Vampire romantic to come and ...... well you get the picture, lol. I read the books way before I watched any of the movies. The books are so much better than the movies. Why is that???? It seems that every movie that is made from a book never does it justice. I do however like the Twilight movies better than the Harry Potter movies. They really ruffled my feathers..... I really don't understand how anyone would know what in the world was going on in any of them if they didn't read the books first. Ugh! Anyway.....</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #ea9999; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">I am loving being at home today. We had our 100th day celebration in my class yesterday and it flat wore me out! I don't think that I could have made it through the day today, lol. I am wanting to write my lesson plans for the month of February this weekend so that I am ahead of the game. I so hope that I get this done.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #ea9999; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">I am really wanting a huge snow. I am a snow lover but a cold weather hater, lol. Makes since huh? My dream is for a big snow that last a few days then for Spring to magically appear. I am so ready for warm weather and sunshine. I needed to go to the store all day and keep putting it off. I am finally warm and don't want to go out and get cold again. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #ea9999; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #ea9999; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">My pet peeves are politics and two faced people. I feel that politics ruin so many things that could be wonderful. Why give someone a job because they are related to so and so or who their parents are???? Why not give it to the person that is really qualified for the job? Wouldn't the qualified person be so much better at it? I also can't stand two faced people. I strive not to be this way and to stay away from people that are. Anyway.... I could go on and on about my peeves but will spare you from it, lol.</span></div>

<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">This week my class celebrated our 100th day of Mrs. Janelle's class. I named our 100 day this because we only counted the physical days that we were in class. We began counting the first day that we were together in my class. We had three days of testing and phase in before the students were actually in my class. I also did not count missed days for weather. Each morning we would add a straw to our place value chart and change the number. I would also write the number on a 100 chart. We would then sky write the number and count to that number. We will continue doing this for the rest of the year and then have a last day of school celebration. </span></div>

<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">We began our 100th day of Mrs. Janelle's class by writing our numbers to 100 for morning work. During our morning meeting time we did our daily pocket chart and finally had 100 straws for the 100th day that we were in class! We also danced to the song "Techno Counting to 100" by Dr. Jean Feldman. </span></div>

This year my class named our elf Chocolate. Chocolate came to us after Thanksgiving break and stayed with us until our last day of school before Christmas break. There were times when I thought that Chocolate was going to have to leave us early and go back to the North Pole because of behavior, lol. We even had a horrible event occur when I was out sick one day and our elf was touched by a student. :/ However.... Chocolate made it until Christmas and the children really enjoyed having him in our class. Here are a few pictures of some of our elf fun! </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">My daughter is having a sleep over tonight and I am enjoying listening to the girls singing and laughing at midnight. It is the most beautiful sound that I have ever heard. It makes me so happy. :) </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I have loved having time off during this Christmas break. I was just a tad to lazy. :P I spent the majority of my break lying on the couch and watching Netflix. My husband and I starting watching the show Revenge. We are totally addicted, lol. However, we finished watching it the other night and now we are dying to find out what happens. Ugg! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I am thinking about all of the things that I need to get finished before school starts back on Monday. I had full intentions on working on school stuff during the break but my couch/Netflix addiction got the best of me. I really needed the break so I don't really feel that bad, lol. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I am really wanting just a few more days off, lol. I have enjoyed it so much. Time just flies by when you are having fun. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I have noticed lately that I feel so unorganized. I am a planner kind of gal and have found that I tend to get about 80% more done when I plan it all in a planner. I have been in search of one for awhile and I think that I have finally found "THE" planner for me. However..... It cost $50.00. :P I guess that I will have to wait until payday to get it. :( Counting down the days.....</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">My OLW "One Little Word" that I am going to live by in 2013 is FORWARD. I am going to look forward to the future and quit worrying about things that I cannot change. So 2013 for me is going to be moving forward. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I am still in shock (like most of you) that it is December already. It seems like this school year is flying by! I have linked up, once again, with Farley over at <a href="http://ohboy3rdgrade.blogspot.com/">Oh Boy 4th Grade</a> for this months currently. Here is what I am currently up to.....</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I just love the Griswold's! I have to watch "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" every Christmas. It just cracks me up. I never get tired of it. I was so excited when I saw that it was on TV tonight! Yay me!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">I have finally finished all of my indoor Holiday decorating this weekend. I just love my Christmas tree. I have spent the last few years collecting gingerbread ornaments and my tree is now complete thanks to the Cracker Barrel and Hobby Lobby. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">My parents have both passed away and Christmas is now kind of a lonely holiday for me. My husband's family have all moved away and my Christmas wish this year is for all of us to be together this year. I don't want any presents. I feel that God has blessed me with all of the material things that I need. I just want to have fun and celebrate with the friends and family that are still on Earth. That would be the best Christmas gift ever! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">I really need to start my Christmas shopping. I haven't bought the first thing yet and it is killing me. Last year I went black Friday shopping and was finished that day. This year I decided to stay home and now I regret it so bad. I hate waiting until the last minute. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">My random act of kindness is buying a stranger a drink at Starbucks. I am also planning on taping a dollar to our drink machine at school so that the next person to buy a drink gets one for free. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"></span> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and reading my currently. I hope that you have the best Christmas ever! Happy Holidays! </span></div>

<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">What a busy month November has been! I got to attend SDE's Tennessee Kindergarten Teacher's Conference. I learned so many new and awesome ideas. I am so excited to start using them in my classroom. I got to go to workshops given by Heidi Butkis from Heidi's Songs. I just loved her ideas and songs. I ended up buying 4 Cd's, 5 DVDs and her amazing word family book. I started using them this week and the children love her songs. The week following the conference was a short week due to Thanksgiving. We celebrated Thanksgiving by having a Thanksgiving lunch and invited parents to attend. It was a huge success. Almost all of my students had a parent or grandparent come to eat with them. We also made this awesome "Turkey Pie Graph." I asked my students the question, "Do you like to eat turkey?" Our graph turned out awesome and the children were so proud. </span></div>

<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Okay.... so I am totally addicted to the show "Sons of Anarchy." That Jaxs is a total dreamboat! He is so bad yet good at the same time. Wowzers!!! He is my new crush. My facebook friends kept posting about this show so I started watching it on Netflix to see what the fuss was about. I am now a SOA addict. Is there a support group for this????</span></div>

<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">I am super excited about the time change. I know that a lot of people hate it but not me. I do so much better in the Winter and Fall. For some reason my brain believes that I am getting extra sleep and I do so much better about getting up for school. I know... crazy huh? </span></div>

I can't wait!!!! </span></div>

<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">I am really wanting to start my own Teacher's Pay Teacher's store. I am going to start my first unit this week and hopefully finish it before Thanksgiving. I also really need more time in the day to get all of this stuff done. That's not going to happen is it?</span></div>

<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">In my classroom we listen to Dr. Jean Feldman Cd's all day. She is awesome and one of my idols. At home and in the car I am totally digging Coldplay. Their music is so chilling and soothing. </span></div>

<span style="color: red; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;"><span style="color: blue;">My principal recently purchased a set of Elements of Reading vocabulary cards for every classroom in our school. At first I was wondering what in the world I was going to do with them. I then brainstormed and decided to start using them for our vocabulary journals. Here is a picture of what the vocabulary cards look like.</span> </span></div>

<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Halloween went great in my classroom this year. Our Halloween school days are always crazy! Kindergarten students in costumes always make for a wild day, lol. My kinders were really good this year. The events of the day wore me out. Here is a group picture of my sweeties in their costumes. </span></div>

<span style="color: orange; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Are they not just too stinkin cute???? I decided to devote the entire day to the holiday. Their minds were in Halloween mode so I decided to play on that. We read several Halloween stories and then I read them my "Bumpkin the Pumpkin" story. They loved it! During center time we made our very own pumpkins out of toliet paper and orange table cloths. </span></div>

<span style="color: purple; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">With Halloween on its way, I decided to read my favorite Halloween book to my Kinders <em>Where's My Mummy? </em>My class LOVED this book. I have had to read it to them 3 times since Monday, lol. First we read the book and then made our text to self-connections by drawing a picture of Baby Mummy when he was scared in the story and then of a picture of what we do when we are scared. They turned out so cute. </span><br />

Long time no blog, huh? I have been so super busy since football season started. I am the director of my area football cheerleading league and also a coach for one of the three squads. August and September were super busy months for me due to the new school year starting and cheerleading season. Our last ballgame was today so I will now be able to be a good little blogger again, lol. </span><br />

I am so sorry that I haven't posted in awhile. I have been super busy lately. We started back to school on August 1st with Teacher inservice and had our first day of school on August 3rd. I have also moved into a new classroom and have been working hard on getting ready for the new football cheer leading season. I have teamed up with Farley over at </span><a href="http://ohboy3rdgrade.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size: large;">Oh' Boy 4th Grade</span></a><span style="font-size: large;"> for the August Currently.</span> </span><br />

<span style="color: magenta; font-family: Verdana; font-size: large;">I am very jealous of my blogger friends that still have weeks until their new school year begins. Don't get me wrong.... I love school, I just wish I had more time to get school and cheer leading stuff finished before school begins. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta; font-family: Verdana; font-size: large;">I am having a hard time with my only daughter going to the 5th grade this year. I can't believe that she has grown up so fast. It seems like yesterday she was a student in my preschool class. :( I don't know why 5th is bothering me so bad. I seriously have never felt this way with any other grade. I was even fine with Kindergarten. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta; font-family: Verdana; font-size: large;">Okay back to my currently.....</span><br />
<span style="color: magenta; font-family: Verdana; font-size: large;">1. I am in serious need of ink for my printer. I went to Walmart today and bought another pack. I have already went through 1 pack in a week, lol. I have found tons of blog freebies this summer and am itching to print them off.</span><br />
<span style="color: magenta; font-family: Verdana; font-size: large;">2. I have the best coffee mug ever. It will hold an entire pot of coffee and keeps it warm all day long. However, it has a dent in the side of it and has started leaking. I am in search of another one for this year. </span><br />
<span style="color: magenta; font-family: Verdana; font-size: large;">3. I am a huge cardigan girl, lol. I stay cold all the time at school and always have a cardigan or hoodie handy to wear. I would love to have a few new cardigans for this school year. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: magenta; font-family: Verdana; font-size: large;">Now I am off to complete Farley's rule of 3 and then get some rest. Thanks again for stopping by! :) </span>mrsjanellebushhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02616966898150040257noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5314097649878414594.post-20426495292849756262012-07-08T20:15:00.001-07:002012-07-08T20:15:59.201-07:00Behavior Management<span style="color: magenta; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I have used a behavior management technique in my classroom for years now that really works for me. I used this method when I taught preschool, first grade and now kindergarten. I use the smiley face method. When a student breaks a rule or misbehaves they have to pull a smiley face. I use four colors: red, yellow, blue and red. Here is a picture of my behavior chart.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="color: magenta;">I have a sheet that I put in the students homework folders every night. I color what face they got for the day and check mark underneath the rule/rules that were broken. The parents have to initial this sheet every night. I am attaching a copy of my Weekly Behavior Report for you to use in your classroom if you wish. This method has worked great for me and I hope that it can help you too.</span> </span></div>

They were a steal at $1.00 each.</span><br />

<span style="color: magenta; font-family: Verdana; font-size: large;">While I was driving home the gears in my brain were turning. I decided to come home and make a game for them. Last year I would project sight words onto my whiteboard using my document projector. I would call out a sight word and my students would take turns swatting a word with a fly swatter. They loved this game and begged to play it all the time. I made a game last night using our Kindergarten sight word list. I plan on using my game "Splat!" as a large group activity to introduce and practice sight words. I am including a free copy of the game for you to use in your classroom. I am so excited to offer my first freebie! :)</span></div>

I also bought the Pete the Cat unit from <span style="color: purple;"><a href="http://mrsjumpsclass.blogspot.com/">Deanna Jump's</a> </span><span style="color: red;">TPT store. I love it and so do Kinders. Highly recommended! </span></span></div>

<span style="color: red; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I came across this book in college and have found it to be very helpful. Harry Wong has a lot of wonderful strategies to use in classrooms for organization and management. I refer to this book often. I actually have acquired 2 copies of this book over the years. I am thinking about sharing one as a give-a-way if I can figure out how to do it, lol. Baby steps..... </span></div>

I have decided to start my daily blogging by adding a few pictures of my classroom from last year. I am moving across the hall to a larger classroom this year and I am really not that excited about it. It is going to be a lot of work. For a few weeks I have been dreading the move but I have decided to look at it as a positive. I get a larger Kindergarten classroom and get to decorate from scratch. It is going to be a lot of work but I am up to the challenge. I have searched many (and I mean many) Kindergarten blogs this Summer and have tons of ideas swimming in my head. I have decided to start next week and get my NEW classroom ready for the new year. So....... here are a few pictures from my old classroom. </span><br />

<span style="color: magenta; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;">This is a picture of my meeting group area. This is where the magic begins! My students begin the day with choosing classroom helpers, exploring the daily calendar, singing our favorite Dr. Jean songs, etc.... We visit this area several times a day. What in the world would I do without my carpet???? I wouldn't be the same without it. </span></div>

<span style="color: magenta; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">This is an up close picture of my special helpers section of my meeting board. Each student in my class has their own apple with their picture and name. I move the apples in a clockwise pattern each morning so that we have new helpers each day. I have decided that I am going to try to use a "bee" theme this year that will match my carpet.</span></div>

I think that these tables were used in Kindergarten when I attended Kindergarten at this school. I am 33 so........ anyway, they served their purpose. I am keeping my fingers crossed for new tables. They are on my wish list. :)</span></div>

My goal for this summer is to update my blog. I started this blog last year and got so busy during the school year that I didn't have time to update it on a regular basis. I have decided that I am going to do better at blogging. I borrow ideas from other blogs all of the time and I need to share my ideas with all of the wonderful teachers that blog. </span>mrsjanellebushhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02616966898150040257noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5314097649878414594.post-84351831181657362872011-09-12T20:48:00.000-07:002011-09-12T20:53:36.556-07:00Mrs. Janelle's Bee Binder<span style="color: magenta; font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">This year I decided to change my old homework folders to the Bee Binder.
