School started on Wednesday and I'll be the first to admit that I am exhausted! Today, I had my students participate in the Marshmallow Challenge. We had such a great time and it provided lots of opportunities for me to go over teamwork, targets (I can statements), and making new friends. I am so excited about tomorrow! Not only is it Friday, but we will begin the construction of our Interactive Math Notebooks! I have been working on them all summer. Ill post pictures as I go along. Enjoy the weekend!

So school starts on Monday! Students arrive on Wednesday and I finally have my room in order...with a little more organizing to do. I love how my desk turned out. I am also excited about doing the classroom "timeline" throughout the year.

Hi! :)

So....here we go!!! This entire blogging thing is something new but I am extremely excited to begin.  I am hoping to use this blog as a way of sharing ideas.  I teach 7th/8th grade math and love my job. I am always looking for new things to use in my classroom.
