Organizing Your Class & Incentives!

So we have 29 days left of school.  Is it too early to start cleaning up? LoL Well I usually clean up early because the end of year can get hectic with paperwork and filing.  I like to clean up early just to make sure I get everything done on time and don't drive myself crazy at the end of the year.  

I first start with my posters.  Here's what it looked like with all the posters finally down.

I usually throw my posters in my closet and hope they stay in place for when I come back from the summer.  Since they are laminated they usually get all clumpy from being in a closet the entire hot and sweaty summer.  So I went on a hunt!  I checked out my latest obsession Really Good Stuff to see what kind of storage they had up their sleeves.

And I was right, they did! 

No that's not me if your wondering.  But I love this idea of holding the posters nice and organized.

So yes, obviously I had to order it!

Okay so I couldn't help it.  This is me! 

LoL

If you notice the model and I have the same *Blending Posters* in the bag!

It really is great.  It's so easy and simple.  

If you think this is something you totally need, click HERE to take you there to grab.  It's only $14.99 and totally worth the money.  

Moving on.  

My students are hyper and I mean really HYPER.  We still have 29 days left and they are so excited for summer.  It's hard to stomp on their parade and let them know we still have work to get done.

So when I ordered the organizer for posters, I also bought these cute rewards for my little ones.  It's so cute!

These are bracelets that come with different praising quotes to let your little ones know they have done a great job.  What I love about them is that they are Scratch and Sniffs!  I usually don't go for those smelly pencils or scratch stickers because the smell is so strong. The smell on these is like heaven!  Some of them smell like cake.  Ugh it makes me hungry!

Isn't it too cute?  I love them.  I showed my little ones today and they were so excited to work for it!

I ordered 2 packs.  In a pack comes 90 loops!  Guess what!  They are on clearance for $2.99 originally $7.99.  If you want to grab these quick before they sell out, click HERE to take you to there.

I hope the looks calm my little ones down a bit. 

What are you doing for rewards and incentives with your little ones this time of year?

Classroom Updates!

Hope everyone enjoyed their Mother's Day yesterday!  It was such a great day in Jersey.  I had a lovely bbq with my family and ate so much!!  It was amazzzzing.

I originally wanted to post about my newest Father's Day Craft but that will have to wait...because I finally received what I ordered from Really Good Stuff!  I ordered it a while ago and was concerned as to why it took so long to come.  But yes it finally came and I couldn't be more excited to set it up!

 Remember my old library bookcase?  You know ...the invisible one?



LoL ... yes that one!

Well I recently ordered this from Really Good Stuff.  To get more info you can check it out by clicking HERE.  It was just $24.99 so I thought it was worth it.








I finally got it!  After begging asking the custodian nicely to help put it together, it's finally ready to be displayed!  

Sorry I made it so big, just wanted to you see how fabulous it is.

Isn't it amazing?!?!?

I just love it.  And so did my little ones.  They said it looks much neater.

Also I ordered a few transparent folders that I was ecstatic to get because I have been trying to use for organizing so I can't wait to put them to use!  Take a look at what they look like.

I love that they are different colors.  It keeps it fun.


Keep a look out on how I use them to organize this week.  I have so many ideas on what to do but nothing certain.  How would you use these folders to organize?  I'd love to hear your suggestions.

=)




Stay tuned this week so I can show you my latest Father's Day Craft!!

It's May??? Omg April flew by!  Figures... it was my birthday month!  I'm soooooo ready for summer and now is the time when it drags and feel like it's never going to end.  I love my little ones this year but not I just have an itch to take a break!

I'm linking up with Farley for her infamous Currently

Here it is!

Okay sooo I finally gave my Maid's of Honor's jobs for our Engagement party in July.  It's seriously just around the corner!  I am trying to do a casual BBQ at my house with just the wedding party and very close friends!    So there's a lot to do until then....

1. Tan 2. Beach  3. Tan

I don't know why but I feel my best when I'm tan.  I look 10x thinner and I don't even need make up!  It could just be me thinking I'm fabulous but still. =)

My bucket list... Sangria!!
Who doesn't like that?
I also have so many visions going up above my head and I need to get them done!

Happy Thursday!
