Top 10 Things I Want To Do This Summer

I am linking up with Mrs. Jump's Class to bring you...

1. Get Fit for the wedding: Okay... I admit I LOATHE running and dieting and going to the gym but I need to suck it up and start working out and looking good for my wedding next May. We are going to go wedding dress shopping this summer so I will be starting as soon as my summer starts on June 5th! 

2. ORGANIZE! If you saw my last post you know classroom organization is my mission for the summer! I cringe every time I look at the closet in my room and my desk area! I just reorganized it in January and it already looks like a tornado hit it! I want to organize all my paper stuff into monthly binders and my centers into labeled shoe boxes so when I am ready for them all I have to do is pull it and GO!

3. Find a new TV series me and my fiance will watch together.  He works ALL THE TIME and during the school year we get to see each other about once or twice a week for a few hours. He records our favorite shows and waits until we can both watch them together.Our favorites, Sleepy Hollow and Grimm don't start again until the Fall. If you have any TV shows you love please share!

  

As you can see we like mystery thrillers :] 

4. Learn to cook more than just spaghetti! I can cook a few things but I want to expand my cooking knowledge this summer. I also want to learn how to cook more healthy dinners. When me and my fiance get married I want to know how to make some really great but healthy dinners instead of just grabbing fast food or pizza every night. 

5. HAVE FUN! We bought season passes to Six Flags over Texas and Hurricane Harbor this year! So we planning on going to those places as much as possible but we would also like to go other fun places such as the beach, a few Texas Rangers games, the movie theater as well. Anything to beat the Texas heat!

6. CRAFT! I love to craft, paint and glitter things! My fiance will not go with me to Hobby Lobby or Micheals because He know I have to look at everything and I can not leave with out buying something! Most of the projects on my craft list have to do with either my wedding or my classroom{I know I should be even thinking about next years classroom but I can't help myself:]}. 

7. CREATE!  I want to grow my little TPT store there will be days where I will have nothing planned and I can just sit down in front of my computer and create all day{hopefully!} I am planning to do a big back to school unit and getting a jump start on creating things for the fall season.

8. Growing my Jamberry Nails Business: I have ventured into the world of Jamberry Nails. I love this product because it is so easy to use, there is no dry time, no messy polish you have to deal with, and they last with out you having to mess with them during the school day. You just stick them and forget them! The last couple months of school is always crazy and this business got put on the back burner for a while, but I am ready to get back at it! Check out my Jamberry Facebook page and like it for exclusive news and special deals from me about Jamberry! Check it out here!

   

9. Grow to be a better teacher: I really want to read and visit some great PD this summer. I am finishing up my second year of teaching kinder and I know there is so much more I can learn about this whole teaching thing! I am not able to make it to I TEACH K this year but hopefully I can go next summer. If you have know or have a read a great PD books recently, let me know! I would love to know and try your favorites!

10. RELAX and SLEEP: Looking at my calendar for this summer, It looks like it will be a crazy busy summer with all the wedding planning, crafting, etc. so I want to have some days to just RELAX and waste the day away napping.

That's all for now! I would love to hear your plans for the summer as well! Maybe I can add some of your ideas to my list!

My Summer MISSION!

Hey ya'll! Things have been crazy around here lately, planning my wedding, starting my new Jamberry Nails business, and most importantly TEACHING! I apologize for the leave of absence but I promise I didn't forget about yall!

With summer just around the corner ( 13 days, but whose counting??) I thought I would share my summer plans with ya'll. I am already thinking about how to make next year awesome and to do that I HAVE to get myself organized! I have a bad habit of just putting papers into piles or placing stuff just anywhere on the shelf. Then when I need something I don't know where it is. SOOOO... I have decided to make this my Summer Classroom Mission( sounds important, huh?). Most of my projects and time will be spent on things to make my class more organized. Here are some things I have found on Pinterest that are on my Summer Mission to do list:

This is something I wanted to create last summer and ran out of time to complete. I love how is can be use as a seat and a storage option. I want to make a couple benches for center seating like in the library center and individual seating for my guided reading table.

Need to make me a sub tub!Although I do have a sub binder for planned absences,  I do not have an emergency sub tub because I almost never miss but I know one day when I get sick or my car breaks down I'm going to wish I had one!

This was also on last summer to do list! It is perfect for also those teeny little supplies like push pins, paperclips, and post its.

 

I also want to organize all my papers into binders. I want to do monthly binders with all of the months academic themed printables, parent letters, craftivity pieces and instructions will go in that binder. I think this will help because I can just grab the binder a go and put it back with the month is over.

That's all I can think of right now but as I complete a project or find other ways to organize objects around the room I will surely let you know!

What your Summer Classroom Mission? I would LOVE to hear all about it in the comment box below!

To help keep YOU organized this coming school year I have two NEW sets of a Teacher Organizational Binder for sale in my TPT store. One is a chevron owls which you can grab here or a monster them here. They are both on sale for this weekend only! I hope you enjoy!
