Teaching during Summer and confession linky party

Today was our last day of whole day school. This means that tomorrow we go home for lunch. Yipee!
This afternoon we watched a movie and I made popcorn for them. It was just perfect, no more trips to the school theater, we have a Smart Board. 
They were so excited that our Board had changed into a movie screen…
I also wanted to join a great linky party by Living a Wonderful Life. I have many obsessions but I will just share my latest.
I just discovered colored binder clips on pinterest and I started using them for everything!
I love organizing my photocpies for the week by subject: green-science, blue-language arts and yellow-maths.
I have tons of them!
White personalized binders. At the beginning of this school year I started changing my binders and using these. I have had lots of compliments on them! I’ll have to take some photos.
My shelves look much more uncluttered now.
I love pinterest. I could be pinning for hours! It is like shopping but free! 🙂
Now I can keep all the ideas from other bloggers in the same place.
Running! I started this year and I love it! Now I need new equipment for the Summer! I feel really proud.
J. Crew. I love this brand. And now they accept international orders. I might try this Summer.

Mother’s day gift and mother’s day FREEBIE

In Spain we celebrated Mother’s Day last Sunday. 
I don’t have kids myself, but I got this beautiful flowers from one of my students. He said that even though I am not his mom he still loves me… Isn’t  that cute?
Anyway, as I already said on this post, we don’t really celebrate it in my school but I leave some mother’s day cards in the writing center.
A teacher friend asked me to create something for third graders. She wanted a writing prompt where the students could write about their moms. So I did this.
I haven’t used it in my classroom so I thought I could give it as a freebie. 

Don’t forget writing a comment if you use it on your blog so I can visit!
