OH-EMM-GEE!!! I can’t even!!! Friends, so remember that I told you that my job is changing a bit for next year?!? Anyway, I’ll be posting more about that soon. But, part of the change means that I need a new classroom. So, I had asked my super-talented friend (who also happens to be a teacher!) @timsmithart to make some custom artwork for my room. This is the first piece!!!! I am speechless!!! Isn’t it beyond amazing?!? Well, stay tuned because Tim and I will be doing a giveaway shortly where you could win a set of prints of the pieces he’s doing for my room!! So make sure that you are following both him and me so that you won’t miss the opportunity to win!! . . #iteachela #secondaryela #iteachmiddleschool #iteachtoo #yalit #yaliterature #iteachmiddleschoolers #iteachmiddleschoolela

⭐️Thursday Feels⭐️ In LA, we read and discussed the plot line for Thank You, Mr. Falker. Students recorded the elements of plot on post-it notes. Side note: I have been teaching plot line using this story for nine years and this story never fails to make me tear up while reading. #tearjerker Please tell me I’m not the only one who gets a little emotional reading books to their classes!?

“What happened to my sweet sixth graders that I know and love?”- I might have asked this question a few times today. We might have had a rough Friday. But, at the end of the day, they are my kids. They are awesome. They are loved. You can snag this tee from @whimsyandwhiteboards and receive 10% off using this code: SIXTHGRADETEACHERS

Our new office set up ⁣ ⁣ This transition from being a teacher (which I absolutely love(d) being) to working on online Professional Development opportunities and free masterclasses and workshops for all of you is going to be an interesting one. ⁣ ⁣ I’m nervous about it to be completely honest. Nervous that I won’t enjoy it and that I’ll desperately miss being in the classroom. Especially come August when the kids are all going back to school. ⁣ ⁣ But YOUR words of encouragement and words of kindness and words of empowerment have allowed us the space to breathe into this new role. ⁣ ⁣ I cannot tell you how much your messages mean to us. ⁣ ⁣ So thank you, truly ♥️ ⁣ ⁣ And this new office set up ... well, you’ll be seeing a whole heck of a lot of it from now on. ⁣ ⁣ At least it’s cute!

Happy mail has arrived! Not sure which one to read first but I’m definitely looking forward to reading before bed every night.

Double tap if your end of the year looks just as pitiful ‍♀️‍♀️ I had EVERY intention of this being an awesome and interactive Greek + Latin Root Words bulletin board area ... really, I swear! But then May came hurdling down the runway, and here we are Two Monday’s left, friends!
