Back to School!

Well my friends, it's back to school time. This summer just flew by and now it's gone. So sad! There were so many things I planned on getting done before another school year started but I guess they'll have to wait or get done before things get too busy...if they're not already! I've gone back to teaching two sessions of kindergarten (which is full time here in Utah) and I can already tell that it's going to be a hectic (possibly a bit harder) year. I have quite a few students with IEPs and special needs/learning disabilities. I will definitely be searching your blogs and other websites to make this year go a bit easier. I'm also still working on getting my masters which will add to the chaos but just one more year and I'm done! GO ME! I have made my classroom into a Dr. Seuss wonderland for this year and I am so excited about it. I'll have pictures up later this week for you to see and more clipart to copy as well. I just hope you'll bare with me and forgive me if I don't blog as often as I should for the next few weeks. I can tell that this new year is going to be quite the adjustment for me...although I may need a venting outlet so my might here more from me than you really want...we'll see which direction it goes! ;) I hope that all of you are having a wonderful beginning to a new year and here's to some new school year posts! I can't wait!

My Newest Kindergartener: Crackers

"Picnik Show"

Create a free slideshow with Picnik!

I have a new kindergartener for this next school year: my 9 week old Polish mix rabbit named Crackers. I am so excited to introduce him to my classroom and students! I have been wanting a rabbit for a while now and I finally found the perfect one (i.e. Crackers) just this week. He's a delight to have around and it's going to be a blast having him in the classroom:)

Summer Getaway!

Just wanted to let you guys know that I'm going to be out of town for the next couple of week so if I don't reply to comments that's why. My wonderful parents have given my husband and I a trip to Europe (with my family included of course!) and we're headed off on Monday! I think I'm actually going to have a really difficult time with no internet and no blogs for two and half weeks! Know I'll be thinking about you and wondering what amazing ideas you'll have for me when I get back!

Enjoy the summer!!

Letters H-Z Giveaway!

Alrighty, I have done things a little differently this time...Instead of creating each character and making individual units I have created letters H-Z and combined them in one file. I have not yet created the worksheets for each character but when I do I will combine them as well to include all of the worksheets for each unit. This will save me time and you money. I have put up the Letters H-Z Unit on Tpt, however I will be also doing a GIVEAWAY! Wahoo!

How It's Going To Work:

I will be selecting 5 lucky winners to receive the Letters H-Z.

a. If you are already a follower:

You need to post my giveaway on your blog, then post a comment on this Giveaway, and send me an email at theartofteachingut@gmail.com and I will email you the unit back.

b.If you are not a follower:

You need to become a follower, post a comment letting me know that you're now a follower, and send me an email at theartofteachingut@gmail.com and I will email you back.

The catch is that you'll need to be one of the first five. Good luck everyone!

PS- I want you all to know how much I appreciate your support as I've been creating these units and figuring out new materials for next year. It's really nice to have friends to bounce things off of! Thank you everyone! High fives to all of you!!
