Like a Rock Star!

I happened to take the day off from work and visited my old school today. Students were gathered in the gym for worship while I waited outside ready to surprise my former students. I even had on a visitor's pass on! 

Once the VP let them in on the surprise, I felt overwhelmed with joy hearing the crowd burst my name. I felt like a rock star! Then, the group hug came! You can see the expressions on my face of happiness (to see how much they've grown) to distress (thought I was going to fall)! 

It was a great ending to my school week! I love this school! I baked coconut cupcakes for all of my teacher friends! I missed you so!

First Day of School

We're back at it again! What do you do when your principal tells you to build your dream classroom? You start building! My classroom came with all the techie gagdets (SMARTboard, document camera, etc) and I am in techno heaven! School ordered new furniture and a voice projecting sound system. I can't wait for them to come in. Especially, my students' desks because I matched them to my classroom colors! I will post pictures once my classroom is complete. Meanwhile, I continued my bird theme inspired by Schoolgirl Style. I purchased her old and new versions of birds. They are pure sweetness! My wonderful bestie created my beautiful whimsical tree to go with my birdies. First day of school was a hit! Plus, I got to wear my thrift find bird theme dress! Enjoy my Pinterest Inspired classroom!
