Top ten things I want to do this summer

I am linking up with a fellow Georgia Blogger and one of my favs Deanna Jump! I have two more days of teacher work days, and then I am free for the summer 🙂 (minus grad school) 1. I want to create a new theme for my classroom! My colors are the same as my blog, but I want to include… Read More

Owl Pellets

Thanks to Donor’s Choose, our owl pellet experiment got funded! Ohmiword, the screams of excitement were almost too much 🙂 I loved every second of watching them explore. I should have taken a picture of their thank you notes, but I didn’t think of it. They thanked their donors for the “experience” and said “it was the best day of… Read More

Field Trip- Hunter Cattle Company

This year we had to split into two groups to go on our field trip because our grade level is growing so much! Here are some pictures from Hunter Cattle Company. We weren’t there long because it started to storm, but in the time that we were there, the kids had a blast. Mine especially were the most excited about… Read More

Must Read Monday

I am linking up with Chandra over at Teaching with Crayons and Curls for her Must Read Monday linky party!                           This week we are reading all about Owls! I am reading Owls by Gail Gibbons and Owl Moon by Jane Yolen. I love both books! They were… Read More

Spring Poetry

This is the first year I have taught new types of poetry to my first graders. I have always taught list poems and acrostics, because they are easy enough for the students to create. I love teaching poetry, but I love even more when the students can create poetry too. During April, we have written poems about peeps, Easter, and… Read More

All about Eggs day!

The week before Easter, we studied eggs and did many egg experiments during our Gifted and Talented Resource time. I co-taught with our Resource teacher, and the kids had such a blast. I made a half book for the kids to record their predictions. Our egg-sperts used this nifty book 🙂 Salt water versus regular water Shaking and smelling the… Read More

This book was everything that I needed and more. I didn’t think that it could get better than Layla and Caleb from Mixed Signals, but boy was I wrong! Nova and Charlie are definitely the spiciest couple from Inglewild and possibly the most talked about on the phone tree! Charlie is that sweet boyfriend that you didn’t know you needed and Nova is the fierce businesswoman who knows what she wants. Thankfully what she wants turns into something more. I could not put this book down! Although I know it’s the last book from Lovelight farms, it wouldn’t hurt my feelings if Borison surprised us one day. My love for Lovelight Farms is deep! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. I just reviewed Business Casual by B.K. Borison. #BusinessCasual #NetGalley ... See MoreSee Less

I thought Layla (a baker) and Caleb (a teacher ) were going to to be my favorite couple in Lovelight Farms forever and ever. I saw so much of myself in Layla, and Caleb just really came through for her during this book. He is so patient and kind. Literally ten stars for him. The Inglewood phone tree is very busy in this book and I can’t help but love this tiny town who rallies together for Layla in the end. Couldn’t put it down. #momsthatread #berkleyromance #penguinrandomhouse #romancebooks #romancereader #lovelightfarms ... See MoreSee Less

I read Lovelight Farms at Christmas time and fell in love with the characters. Stella and Luka are precious and I just knew I’d be reading more from this series. Enter Evelyn and Beckett. Y’all they are such a sweet couple. They started off as a one night thing and ended up making their way back together. I love all the background character building to prep for future books that Borison does. She had me wanting so much more of Beckett’s family. (And that comes eventually!) I do think her books in this series go in spiciest order, so this one was fairly tame in my book! Loved it! ... See MoreSee Less

I didn’t realize how much I would LOVE this book. I hope @yulin.kuang writes many more books because I adore her writing. This book drew me in, kept me hooked, and gave me all the feels for Helen and Grant. I loved the friendships, the families, how she handled the main characters anxiety, all of it. A beautifully written story that I’m handing all the stars!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 ... See MoreSee Less
