Classroom Progress and a 50 Follower Giveaway!

Yesterday I headed over to my classroom to get a few more things finished... with the help of my five year old we got a lot done in an hour and a half.

 Look at how organized my cupboards are, moving all of my stuff (again) is really forcing me to decide what I need and what I can recycle... I recycled a ton!  Oh and do you see my cute new plastic bins over on the right there... I go them at the Target dollar spot, I am way excited to have a place to keep magnets, my projector remote and interactive whiteboard pen, and my markers and eraser!

I am getting my center chart ready for a new year, I had to re-make all of my titles for my back wall, the old ones were just too faded and didn't survive the move.  My new titles are all sitting in a giant pile to laminate, but I will post pictures when they are all done.

Room in progress, so much still to do but it is starting to look complete... I am excited for my new word wall, I have had to be super creative with a smaller space and putting it above my cabinet was my sweet daughter's idea, I LOVE it!

I have seen a lot of posts lately about birthdays.  I give each kidlet one of these cute bags and a birthday crown.  I make them all during the summer and then keep them in my cupboard to pull out when needed.

My final big project this week, I am getting my first day kits put together.  I actually give them to parents at their child's kindergarten testing appointment so that they have the kit for the first day.  That way they can log onto Barnes and Noble Storytime and listen to the story The Kissing Hand together.

Now that you are all caught up on what I have been up to.... the giveaway!  While I was sitting in class today I reached 50 followers!  I am so very excited and can hardly believe that in 3 weeks I have reached 50 followers, I have to say I have loved joining the blog world.  There are some amazing teachers out here in the blogosphere and I feel lucky to be a apart of it!  So without further ado, my very first giveaway!  I am going to give three lucky followers a copy of  My Picture Word Journal.  Just enter the rafflecopter below.  Remember to follow my blog and leave me a comment!
