December Currently!

Well, I thought about the Currently on the 30th… and then it didn’t even cross my mind until I was getting into bed the night of the 1st! The first day back to school after Thanksgiving break just wiped me out, but it’s only the 2nd so I’m not too late!


Happy to be linking up again with Farley!




Listening: I love Wheel of Fortune! It’s my dream to be on this show one day!!


Loving: I think I’ve used this one before, but I seriously adore my supportive husband. Today was a rough day with one of my students and the moment I come home and he sees the look on my face, he just wraps me in a hug and holds me tight. Makes everything better!!


Thinking: Thanksgiving break just messed me up! Not that I’m complaining about having a full week off…. but my sleep schedule is so out of whack now! I MUST go to bed at a “decent” time tonight!!!


Wanting: Wouldn’t it be awesome if dinner just made itself?? You’re probably asking ‘What about that amazing supportive husband you just talked about?’ Well… he had to leave for the evening so if I want to eat, I better get in the kitchen! (As I sit here doing the Currently instead…)


Needing: It was cool for about a day down here in Tampa-land. I’m not a big fan of cold weather, but 60’s would be nice! It would at least make it feel like winter is almost here!

    Cute word scrambles! I could have almost written your Currently. I have a wonderful husband. I certainly DID want dinner to cook itself. (It didn't.) I REALLY need to get to bed earlier. I had 4 days off, and I stayed up too late. It's cold enough for me, though. I'm here in Connecticut. It's been pretty warm for December (in the 40s and 50s). I hope the rest of your week goes well!

    So funny! You're wishing to have cooler weather and I can't wait to escape the sleet, snow and freezing rain to come to beautiful, sunny Florida next week. Maybe you can keep the cool away for just one more week! LOL

    Supportive husbands are the best! I am blessed with one myself! Wheel is one of my faves too! I'm not very good at it but it is fun to pretend to be!
    Happy December!

What's your go to coffee order?? ☕️ Peppermin What's your go to coffee order?? ☕️

Peppermint mocha was the first flavor of coffee I loved and it's still a favorite. And now learning to make cold foam has really elevated my coffee at home! Also, save those cups and reuse them because it's the perfect way to drink your coffee!!

》Peppermint mocha cold brew made in the French press (used Walmart brand coffee grounds)

》Cold foam made with splash of heavy cream, splash of milk, and peppermint stevia 
Added a splash of Chobani peppermint mocha creamer because I had it (but it's not necessary!)
For those of you wondering how the storage unit sa For those of you wondering how the storage unit saga is playing out... 

We went for a couple hours this past week and started going through boxes. My husband was a huge help!!
2 huge trash bags, a big donation box, and a couple boxes marked sell- we can finally move within the unit and reach things! 🙌🏼

This will be a process for sure but I'm glad I finally got started with it.

We all deserve a space to feel comfortable and to belong. I love the message this shirt gives and I love Kind Cotton and their continued mission to make a difference.

Today and every day we need to remember to be more than just kind. Listen to one another. Stop putting each other down. Help one another. Stand up for what's right. Use our voice. Let's build a better, kinder space for our students and children!

A new ✨️Osmo Reading Adventure✨️ was deliv A new ✨️Osmo Reading Adventure✨️ was delivered to our doorstep the other day and this 4.5 year old couldn't wait to get her hands on it!!

I absolutely love how these books help with reading, phonics, and sight words while being interactive and having fun. These new books are a bit more challenging for her and I have loved watching her rise to the challenge to try and learn these new words.

It's taken me over 4 years to muster up the courag It's taken me over 4 years to muster up the courage to go visit my storage unit. I spent more time just staring at all of this and muttering unkind words to myself about what a mess it is.
My husband was the last one to ever see this stuff since he finished packing it and closed the door on it 4+ years ago.

No, I'm not planning on returning to the classroom right now. But I need to offload some things so I can get a smaller unit because dang! storage units are ridiculously expensive.

I also want to see what I can find that my kiddo can use since she's in PreK and is starting to be at the level of the kiddos that I taught.

If you are not using @kwikstixpaint at home or in your classroom, you need to get some!!
The Narwhal and Jelly series is an absolute favori The Narwhal and Jelly series is an absolute favorite in our house! My daughter simply loves these books!! She has them memorized because we've read them so much and I love hearing her recite the stories. They are laugh out loud funny so I don't mind hearing them over and over.

We read them constantly, listen to the audiobooks, and we get them as read aloud Wonderbooks from the library. There's a few more in the series that we don't own- yet... I'm sure those will end up being Hanukkah presents!
Read-Trace-Write-Glue Sentences ✏️✏️ I lo Read-Trace-Write-Glue Sentences ✏️✏️

I love how these practice:
• sight words
• sentence structure
• handwriting
• cutting & gluing

These are perfect for independent work time, morning work, or those few minutes after playground time when you just need a quick & quiet activity!
🎃👻🧙🏼‍♀️ This is Halloween! 🎃👻🧙🏼‍♀️

I know it may depend on your school and students if you can do Halloween activities. But, this is also a fun one you can use at home if you have young kiddos who are learning their letters and sounds!

One of my absolute favorite resources is this parts of a plant notebook activity! 🌱I always brought in the food items for my students to build all of the plant parts and then taste each part. Then they would match up and label the parts of a plant and draw/write the food for each part.Have you tried doing this with your students??bit.ly/plantsnotebook ... See MoreSee Less
