I usually have my room pretty much set up by this point because I go in and piddle and plan how I want things. BUT, this year our principal would not let us go back until July 15th. THEN, we get an email that said we can't get in until tomorrow. I'm a
I'm also linking up with Michelle at Fabulous in First for her Sunday Smorgasbord. This is such a fun linky because I have been all kinds of random this week. Well, it seems like every week in the summer!
My week started out kinda yucky because I was in a 3 day workshop. We had reps from different school's within our district. We had to create our district's Student Learning Objective (SLO) assessments. This was some hard-core work. The state department rep was there. We had a 5 page checklist that we had to complete in order to be checked out on Wednesday! It was all kinds of CRAY!! I know you hate that I didn't get any pictures of this awesome adventure, but you know...We had to sign a confidentiality agreement so I didn't want to get in trouble!!
I also discovered that I must have been living under a ROCK because I had never heard of the fabulous app/website called Remind 101.
Why, oh why, did I not know about this? This app allows you to communicate quickly with your parents. I have a review coming up this Tuesday so stay tuned! I seriously think it is going to change how I, and maybe you ;) communicate with your parents!
My next big thing this week is that I bought one of those great home laminators! I saw on Instagram where I Love My Classroom found one at Walgreen's on clearance so I raced to Walgreen's only to find that my store did not have them on clearance. I didn't realize they were only 30 bucks in the first place so I snatched it up even though it wasn't on clearance. I really love it and I've only had it for a few days!!

Now, head over to Fabulous in First to see what other randomness happened this week!
Remind 101 will change your life! I need to download the app for my phone since I usually just do it on the computer. It's awesome! :)

Carried Away in... K!
I hope so Kim!! We have to contact parents for every event we have at school so I am definitely looking forward to it!
DeleteI LOVE Remind 101! You will too! It's awesome. I also bought the same laminator (for $8 on clearance at Walgreens!). Your blog is adorable!

ReplyDeleteSteve,
DeleteSomeone on my instagram told me that Amazon has them for $24.99, but then I would think you would have to pay shipping...
And, Dana from the comment above got hers at Walgreens for 8 bucks!!
