1 down.....11 to go!

Today, I started my second week. It's going to be hectic and long. We have benchmarks and gifted screenings everyday this week so the children are a little restless. I tried to break up the chaos but am not sure how well it will go. My goal everyday is to use a some type of kinesthetic activity to keep them active. I hope it works.

I was making my daily blog rounds tonight and came across a giveaway over at

What the Teacher Wants!

 for a $100 gift card to The Container Store! I've been in there and looked but have never purchased anything because I'm to indecisive. I love anything and everything organizational! This is my first time ever entering a blog giveaway so I'm keeping my fingers crossed :)

In the meantime, head on over and check out their blog! I just love reading their ideas on Management Monday!!!!!!

It's HERE!

I start the final phase of my Internship Monday. From now until the end of the year, I will be responsible for all lesson plans and classroom management. I'm excited but nervous at the same time. The transition from college papers and reports to lesson plans is well needed though. As I am doing more things in the classroom, I hope I have more time to add to this blog. Stay tuned for more in the coming weeks!
