The Countdown Begins...

The back to school countdown has officially begun! Twenty-five days until I meet my stupendous second graders. And I must admit that I am rather excited! My mind is full of wonder…as I think of the varying possibility of a new school year. In an effort to keep my anxiety at bay, I’ve been keeping busy with my back to school To Do List, which happens to be a mile long. I have so much to do prior to the first day, but I am confident that I will get it all done somehow. The first project that I am proud to say I have completed, is my teacher toolbox. I discovered this crafty idea through Pinterest. I love, love, love Pinterest! It’s a haven for creative and crafty teacher ideas. It was pretty simple to complete. After hunting for the perfect theme, I decided to use neon animal prints. I printed the labels and attached them to the scrapbooking paper using double-sided tape. I then attached each insert to the inside of a drawer. I also used the 32 drawer toolbox, so I have a few extra drawers. I really like the finished product. Shout out to Ms.Roja for posting her labels on TPT!
The picture is a bit blurry, but you get the idea!

    I had no idea you were a teacher :) I am headed overseas to teach secondary English and just finished my first year of teaching 10th grade English. I love your ideas and creativity! I am so excited to see what more you have and maybe be able to apply to my own class!

    Best of luck this year!
