Heading back to school can be completely overwhelming.

It's incredible we even make it through the month of September. Usually for me, the paperwork can be the most headache inducing part of Back to School season! One way to use Google Forms is to have parents fill out all of the Back to School information you need via Forms! I'll take ...

http://www.surfinthroughsecond.com/2015/08/ready-for-new-year.html
Ready For A New Year. Thursday, August 13, 2015. I am a little late in sharing my classroom for this year. We started school on July 29th and I have to tell you I WAS NOT READY! I seriously had so much to do and I didn't get any of it done. Instead of stressing about it and not having the perfect room I took Elsa's advice and Let It Go! Honestly the only person who noticed was me! My desk looks great with a fresh coat of chalkboard paint! New Reward Tags-Click on the Picture above to Grab this Freebie!

Step into 2nd Grade with Mrs. Lemons. Stock the Fridge for the Staff! Our teachers start back to school on Monday, August 17th. Although I try my darndest not to drink sodas anymore I decided that caffeine was a *must purchase* for our staff. We all know how hard it is to wake up AND get dressed after being in sweats with a messy bun for 2 months straight, right? So, we went to Wal Mart and loaded up our cart with sodas, water bottles, straws, and drink mixtures and filled up our staff fridge :). August ...

I go through this EVERY.YEAR. I used to send MORE notes home to replace the other notes that were lost/eaten/thrown away. It was dumb. Then I came up with a solution!
