Welcome to First Grade!

After years of preparation and twelve tough months since graduation, I officially have my own classroom! I get the honor of being a first grade teacher in the elementary school where I grew up.

I am absolutely overwhelmed already with all of the things I need to get accomplished in the next 49 days, and I know I am going to be working non-stop to get everything exactly the way I want it. The unfortunate news is all of the decorating will have to wait because my classroom is currently filled with another teacher's things, so I can't move in until she moves out. So, I will just have to use the house as a staging area for all things first grade.
