Spring has Sprung Freebie!

It has been gorgeous in NY!! Love the 70* weather and it looks like it's going to stick around for a little bit longer :)

Here is a cute spring craft I did with my kinders. You can download it for free here. 

Kindergarten Screening Inventory Assessment

It's that time of year... you know, where we start thinking about next year!!

I finished working on my screening inventory that I am going to use to assess my incoming kinder kids. It can also be used in the beginning of the year (and even throughout!) if you don't have the luxury of meeting your students before the first day of school. 

I tried it out on a couple of pre-k students that I will have next year, tweaked it a little, and voila! You can get it here or here! 

Earth Day Freebie

Happy Earth Day!! You can download this freebie here :) 

Also, had to share.... definitely a great way to start the week :) This one is a keeper!

Field Trip Reflection

On Friday The Sara Marie School took their first field trip on the bus. Can you say EXCITED?! We went to see "The Dinosaur Petting Zoo" at The Egg in Albany. It was a fun hour long show. The dinosaurs were very realistic puppets. I think it's safe to say there were no criers! Except for *that one* student who can't handle not getting called to go on stage. Field trip = success and 2 tired teachers! 

When we returned to school we had lunch, recess, Spanish, then about 15 minutes to kill before free time. I whipped together this cute little reflection form that you can download for free here. 

Have a great week! We might hit 70 degrees here in NY! 

Office Make-over

I'm blogging from my new and improved office :)

Before shot. 

I *LOVE* the grey/yellow color combo. I still have a few more things to do with it. I have to fill those nice, empty shelf spaces with my teacher junk that you can't see piled up on the other side of the photo and oozing out of my closet! I also want to pick out a fabric to wrap my desk in and my husband is making me this Pinterest-inspired art piece. 

This office make-over is supposed to encourage me to actually use it and get back into blogging and creating super awesome resources again!! 

Anyone else's Spring Break ending tonight??! I'll leave you with this adorable photo to ease the Sunday night blues :)

And yes, I get *crazy-cat-lady* stares when kitty litter is on sale at Price Chopper while my husband walks behind me and pretends to not know me. ;)
