So given that it's beginning of August and I have 6 weekdays before I have to head back to school to prep, I am nervous! My classroom has all new furniture and shelves, lots of people donated a lot of awesome things to my room, but I will need to start lesson/centers planning, figuring out what I want to do for classroom management, how to assess my kids.....the list is endless. However, I am very very excited!
Sometimes the thought of me teaching kindergarten is still surreal. I have been in school since I have been in school for 22 years and now I have the job that I have been dreaming about since I was 5. I am entering the real world. AHH!

I got it!
I am happy to announce that I got a part-time Kindergarten teaching position at a Christian school! What a dream come true. Well, I wouldn't really say "I" got it, because it was the works of many people's prayers and advices, and, of course, the work of God.
Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the LORD, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. "

Spring Cleaning
So I was taking a break from all the reading and project madness for school and decided to look through my art supplies at home. Since I am at it, I might as well clean it up:).
This is the start of my art supply collection, hoping one day I will have something like this....
my shoebox of paint and ribbons |
my $5 ribbon collection, from Target, Fabricland, and Michaels (I forgot I recently bought a few more spools...) |
My mini NEW paint collection from Michaels |
Paint samples (great for cutting up) and square coloured pieces in my waffle box |
Box of scrapbook paper |
My Michaels and dollar store stamps:) |
Blank cards, stickers, and FREE envelopes from Carlton Cards (you just have to ask) |
All cleaned up:) |
