Happy 4th of July!

We're spending the day in the backyard in the baby pool, grilling out and spending time with one another in celebration of this fabulous holiday. Feeling very thankful today!

Family Vacation

Enjoying a family vacation this week!
We're spending the week exploring and introducing the beach to our daughter. It's been so fun to watch her enjoy the sand, splash, and play in the water. I hope you're all enjoying your summer vacation with your families!

I'm Back...

I have been absent for a long time...

I'm thrilled to announce the birth of my daughter, Emma, she was born in November. We are just loving life with our sweet baby girl! She is the happiest little thing and we're loving our life with her.

Also, I have completed my master's degree. After two years of teaching full time, having a baby and taking online and night classes, I'm thrilled to take a break. Now, time to focus on family and hobbies. Well, until I start master's degree round two!

Lots of love! -Leigh

Classroom Goods

My favorite places to shop for my classroom: Target Dollar Section, The Dollar Tree, Michaels, and the Walmart Dollar Section- you just can't beat the prices! Check out all of the awesome stuff I found!

I found a ton of goodies walking around my local Dollar Tree. The 5 piece shoe-lace tieing practice kit is adorable. I got a bucket for my "bucket of words" flashcard practice. I think my favorite find was these stackable containers in these pretty bright colors!

I found these awesome large clothespins for my student work display bulletin board! They were on a super clearance and after my teacher discount I snagged 4 packs of these (28 total) for just $6.80. After looking around for large clothespins this felt like a huge steal!! Plus, I can write each student's name on the pin in chalk.

The dollar section at the Target by my school was twice the size of the one by my house. I loved the brightly colored paper trays. They always have brightly colored goodies in their dollar section. My favorite of my purchases at Target was the chalkboard tins. I love that you can write right on them!

Crafting

With school starting in only one month I've been crafting away creating new resources for my classroom! I love these alphabet cards I found at TPT. I already have a word wall but these are the perfect size for a center activity or possible to assist during the word work center of ABC order!
