Target Friday, Teacher Goodies, and Barbs!

I love Friday's. Even in the Summer, because that means Matt is about to be off for the weekend! Plus, I go to Target every Friday. It just happens, whether I'm home, in Valdosta, or Atlanta. I think Friday will be my Tallahassee shopping day for the last precious few weeks of summer. I was on the hunt for some dollar spot items, but they didn't have what I was looking for. I made up for it at Wal-Mart (they have a good one) and even popped in Sweet Blue for a minute. I saw one of my favorite babies of all time there today and her sweet family. It made my day, I was completely blessed!

I got my lesson plan notebook/calendar for mapping out curriculum. I think it will be nice to have it all in one place.

A notebook for BST leader meetings.

A box for RTI/IEP (speech, gifted, special education) meetings. I have a feeling I will be attending a lot this year. I LOVE meetings! Plus some new Flairs for my life planner.

Some stickers, name tags, and postcards.

Glow bracelets for Open House, straws for birthday balloons, and highlighters to highlight their name after they turn in their morning work/SRA practice sheets.

Last night I sat down and started creating labels for the new things I'm adding this year. If you've ever stepped foot in my classroom, you will notice a few things about me. I label everything. I like bright colors and patterns. I love baskets/tubs. Velcro and magnets are my best friends. :)

I have had Matt Redman's song, 10,000 Reasons, stuck in my head all day. So now I'm listening to it on replay.


I'm excited about a Barberito's date tonight, hanging up my prayer board, and getting ready for our company that's arriving tomorrow! Happy WEEKEND!
