I'm linking up with Farley for her August Currently. Stop by Oh Boy, 4th Grade to link up! :)
Listening: After a long day at the zoo visiting the animals and running for shelter from the rain, it's wonderful to hear the sound of precious silence while I sit on my comfy couch. :)
Loving: After trying to grow my hair out for the past two and a half years, I finally asked myself, "Why?" I have curly hair, so short is simple. I'm loving my new haircut and a few highlights to brighten my look.
Thinking: I have so much to do before school starts, like organize the playroom, donate toys that are no longer touched by the kids and squeeze in one last camping trip!
Wanting: We have some new teachers starting at school this year because of additional sections of various grade levels being added. I'm fortunate enough to mentor 2 of the new teachers and 1 of the second-year teachers in our building. Looking forward to meeting the newbies on Monday, July 11th at the Mentor-Mentee Luncheon!
Needing: My previous Reading Room I shared with another Reading Specialist is now becoming a 2nd grade classroom. I'll be in a new, much smaller room this year. I need to get in there and organize ASAP!
1st Day You & Kids: I can't believe I go back to work two weeks from today for a Teacher's Institute. The kids will be returning close behind us.
Summer, please slow down!
Wow! You go back on a Friday and the kids come the following Monday??? I've never heard of anything like that! This is my 12th year, and every single year, I must be back at work for an entire week of prefessional development and meetings prior to the kids coming.

DeleteI love your blog. I am like you that summer is going fast, but at the same time, I love Fall.

Thanks, Kristin! I'm ready to get started on my room and begin the school year. :)
DeleteMy first inservice is THIS Friday, the 8th. With students on the 14th. Today I will go and work some more on my room. I couldn't sleep last night because I just wanted it to still be summer, but it really isn't. So much to do today!
