Wrapping up the Year w/some cute Gift Tags

I am exhausted!! This will be another short post. Last night, I went to Wal-Mart in search of a gift to give my kiddos for the last day of school. I saw some cute ideas on pinterest and put together a super cute and inexpensive gift for my students.
I just put a pack of kool-aid, a cool twisty straw and a cute note to the kids. This gift came out so cute and was oh so simple, perfect for last minute gifts :P  If you would like a copy of these tags and the notes I put inside (also from pinterest) head on over to my TPT store.

I'm Alive, 3 days till Summer, and New Class Rules..

Phew. It sure has been awhile and I have really missed you all in blogging world! This time of year is crazy for teachers with all of our end of year duties!! My brother's wedding has come and gone. It was beautiful :) I'll update more on that later..

I just wanted to make a quick post and share some New Class Rules Posters. Well the rules have actually been used in my classroom the entire school year but I've made some new posters to display for the following school year :) Come to think of it, I've actually never posted these rules..just taught them to my kids!

I use the Whole Brain Teaching class management approach and I absolutely LOVE it. It's fun for the kids, they are engaged, and they REMEMBER things. Whole brain teaching has really changed my life/classroom as a teacher. Other teachers/ subs are completely amazed at how well trained my students are. Since we will soon be on summer, please check it out..you will not be disappointed. There are a ton of videos on youtube, you could also check out their website www.wholebrainteaching.com for a ton or free information!!

First two people to comment with their e-mail address gets the rules for free! Check them out at my TPT Store.
