TOO Much to do!!!!!!!!

I feel like a chicken with it's head cut off, I am running around clueless to what i need to really focus on, I have so many things to do, I am already overwhelm. I just really can't wait to get my routines and procedures down for this yr!, I am sure I will figure it out soon, however school starts  monday. :)(:

Getting Nervous

Although I have been teaching for years, I am getting nervous. Im teaching 1st grade this yr, and I really don't know what to expect, and what to plan. First grade is one of the most important grades because it's sets the foundation for students, and I don't want to hinder any of my students educational success. I am used to teaching intermediate, and as you know they come to me reading already. I am not sure if I want to focus on literacy stations or word work centers only, I have to decide school starts Monday.

Chocolate Polka Dots

I really fell in love with the polka dot theme, I completed by bulletin boards, however I don't like how the letters blend in, I am going to take them down and glue them to a white sheet of paper so they will pop.
