Hello, I’m sorry, but can you explain to me where summer has
gone?
It’s already back to school
time?
It was just the last day of school
five minutes ago!
There have been SO
many changes in my world this summer that it flew by me without so much as a
wink.
(Okay, I winked and blinked a
lot.)
We did a lot of house hunting this
summer and found a new home!
That is the
upside; the downside is that we won’t be moving into our new home until the
first week my kiddos are back in school.
Yikes!
A new home means new
decorating, so I am extremely excited for that aspect of the change!

Over the last year or so I’ve had a lot of requests for
lesson plans in my
2nd grade Social Studies bundle.
I think it was the #1 thing people seemed to
want the most.
This summer I finally sat
down to make that happen.
However, when
it came time to add those in, I also made even more changes to the bundle.
I updated a few different items to make them
a little better and nicer, I added in some reading comprehension pages, and of
curse the lesson plans.
The bundle went
from 250 or so pages to over 450!
I was
shocked (and proud that I managed to get it done so quickly)! There are reading comprehension pages that go with every
lesson and I think the questions are pretty open ended. I like to present my kids with questions that
are also fostering discussion with their partners, tablemates, or even the
entire class. I am not a quiet classroom
teacher; we have a lot of conversation taking place at all times in our
room. I want my kids to think about
their opinions, share them, and explain they are important to them. Those little things are so important from
such a young age – listen, understand, and appreciate what others have to say.

While packing up my house, I came across a Magnolia Journal
(who doesn’t love Fixer Upper?) that had some beautiful flowers in it.
Somehow that made me think of watercolor
flowers and that somehow turned into a
floral watercolor classroom décor set.
I love peachy pinks and dark blues.
It was something I started to do for fun that
turned into something a little bigger that I decided to share.
There are some adorable banners that are included in the set
that I just love. I hung them with some
cute colored clothespins that I bought from Michael’s and a bit of twine from
Dollar Tree. The bonus to this set of
flags is the fact that they range from A-Z, so you don’t have to worry about
having the font I used or making sure something is center. I LOVE editable products, believe I do, and I’ve
purchased plenty of them. However,
sometimes if I don’t have the font and it’s not linked, it gets a little
frustrating. I wanted to skip over that
part and make the whole thing easier!
I am hoping the next time I pop
in is sooner than later! I would love to
hear how you guys feel about the new bundle – PLEASE redownload if you haven’t
already! Also, in the next week or two
(probably two..) I will be posting pictures of my classroom reveal! There are a lot of changes this year that I
can’t wait to share!
