I decided to swing by my classroom to pick up a teacher's edition I needed to start my lesson plans for the upcoming school year. My team shares lesson plans and I am responsible for the 1st two months of school so I thought I'd get a head start. This is what greeted me (besides a mildewy/garbagey smell) when I walked in my classroom door. A book shelf blocking the entrance to the bathroom.

Right about that time Library2Play started and I joined in. I am really excited about Storybird. To have them create their own writing. Glad you enjoyed the trip!

Promo box 1 green. Promo box 2 yellow. Promo pic 3 blue. Why I Will Never Use a Behavior Chart Again.
