Happy Birthday Sweetie!

School is back in full session and I have celebrated 3 birthdays in my class already. This year I have mostly end of the year babies. In celebration of their birthday, I made the following card. I used TGF's Annika for this one. Isn't she adorable? She is one of my favorites.

I have also entered this card into The Greeting Farm's Garden Variety Challenge - 3 or more layers.  

Crossing my fingers I get chosen. :)

Cheeky Lesson

Back to work (school) this week and let's just say I survived! It was tough in the beginning, but the helpful advice and psychological therapy from colleagues and friends really made a big difference. I'm so glad that I have them for support. Anyway, here is a card I made in gratitude of their support. Yay! Go Special Education Teachers!!! 

I am also submitting this card into The Greeting Farm's Fresh Friday Anything Goes Challenge.

Back to School Posters

My O My...where has the summer gone?! I got to spend my last days of summer at Manhattan Beach before going back to work (school). Below are some pictures of all the handmade goodies I created for my classroom; a Birthday poster to help remind my students which month and day their birthday fall in, a Days in School poster to count the number of days in a school year and to also teach placement value, and the Names of the Days in a week to teach time (past, present, future). I'm so excited to share these with my students...I hope they will love it as much as I do! Feeling excited & nervous for the first day...which will be next Tuesday (8/13).  

This is where I posted them in my classroom. :)
