Crate Seats

Hi everyone,

I have been getting very anxious lately since school is about to start in just 2 weeks, YIKES!
This week I am trying to organize all of my school things.  I did not get a chance to see my new teaching space, and since I am switching jobs I have everything piled up everywhere : / However, I still found some time to create these beautiful crate seats to go with my classroom color scheme.

No Sew Pillows

Today, I have also finished my no sew pillow shams.   I was thinking of purchasing some pillows for my classroom library area but I did not want to spend a fortune.  After looking for different ideas I finally found this great tutorial on pintrest  http://www.livelovediy.com/2013/04/how-to-make-pillow-with-glue.html
 
I went to Hobby Lobby and bought chevron colors to match my classroom theme. 


 
After some time cutting and gluing my pillow shams turned out great!
 
I have 12 pillows shams from 6 yards of material. 
 
I saved some $$, by making my own and they match my theme! What more can I want : )
 


 
I will post another picture of what they look like after I purchase the inner cushions.  Found some at IKEA for only 2.99.

No Homework Log Binder

I am proud to say that I have been very productive on this very rainy day!  I just finished creating a No Homework Log binder.  Got this GREAT idea from http://secondgradeparadise.blogspot.com/.
This log will make the kiddos responsible to explain why their homework was not done.  It will be great to show parents at conference time.
 
This is the cover page of my binder, I love the picture of the dog!

I have numbered tabs in the binder, each student will have their own number and a missing homework log.  When their homework is not turned it, they will be responsible to fill in the log with the date, assignment, and reason why it is not complete.

Lesson Planner

So today, my Lesson Planner from Erin Condren finally arrived!  I absolutely love everything about it.  It looks amazing and I am looking forward to the new school year so much more because of this new planner!  I was even more excited about getting this planner then purchasing my laminator : )
