Currently


I'm linking up with Farley over at Oh Boy 4th Grade for the August Currently.  I can not believe it is already August.  YIKES! 

 
I was searching for something new to watch on Netflix, when my sister reminded me that I wanted to watch Blacklist.  I was hesitant, but didn't really have anything else to watch.  Oh.My.Word.  I'm hooked!  I'm almost done with season 1 and just realized that season 2 is not on Netflix.  Say What?!!?  I checked Hulu and they only have season two episodes 18-22.  I must find season 2 and watch it before B2S.
 
I am loving my personalized stamps!  Last summer I pinned a pin on Pinterest about creating your own stamps at Vistaprint.  Well, I gave it a try and it worked!  I LOVE them!  I plan to blog about them sometime next week, but here's a sneak peak.
 
 
I blogged last week about my job change.  I not only changed from primary to intermediate, but I changed school districts!  I have so much left to do in my classroom.  I have been lucky because I have been able to get into my room the past week and a half, and the air conditioner is on as well!  I've only really worked about 2-3 hour each day, because my girls have been tagging along.  You know how it is when you move into a different room.  You have to organize what's there before you can unpack.
 
My goal is to only work in my room 2 days next week and then enjoy about a week until New Employee Orientation.  I really, really want some time to read a "fun" book before school starts!  I know once school starts it will be all about learning a new grade level and trying to keep my head above water.
 
I really need someone to come spray paint some things for me.  I spend quite a bit of time spray painting a book shelf last week and although it turned out fine some other things I spray painted did NOT!  I really need some HELP in this area.
 
 
 
For a B2S RAK, I was planning to either bake some homemade treats for my team or put together a small goodie bag.  It will all come down to how much time and money I have left by then!
 
I can't believe I'm actually posting my currently on the first of them month!  I think that is the first time ever!  Woot, Woot!
 
That's all I got!  I'll see you around the blogging world!

  2. I am a huge Blacklist fan, too, and can't wait for it to come on again. Hope you're able to find the episodes you still need to watch. You'll continue to be hooked, for sure! 4th grade is so much fun. I've taught 2-4th, but 4th is by far my favorite. The kids are independent but still love hugs. Those stamps of yours will certainly come in handy, too. I'm going to check out that website. Best of luck in your new district and grade level. Would love to hear your thoughts about 4th grade once school starts. Have a great year!

    1. I am so happy to hear you say you loved teaching 4th grade! I'm so nervous. I honestly never thought I would teach anything except 2nd grade. I'll be sure to blog about this new adventure!

    1. Thanks! I already took the shelf up to my classroom and can't wait to put stuff on it! I'm so nervous about teaching 4th grade. I absolutely never thought I would leave 2nd grade! It's going to be a journey for sure!

  4. I changed grade levels and school districts this year too! I'm going from 3rd grade to 8th grade! *gasp* ;) You'll be fine though and I'm sure you're going to love it! :) What do you use your personalized stamps for? I don't exactly know what I would purchase one - what would work for me about it. So I'm interested to know! Enjoy the rest of your summer!

    1. Oh my goodness! From 3rd to 8th... I would die I think! Good Luck to you! I really hope I fall in love with 4th grade. I plan to use the stamps on graded papers, homework, journals, station work, etc. Students seem to love getting stickers and stamps on their papers. I hope you enjoy what's left of your summer as well!

  5. Your stamps turned out so cute!! I love them! So fancy! :)
    I'm so glad the AC is on in your new room. GISD never turned it on this early. Hehe.

    1. Thank you! I hope the kids love the stamps. I'm so lucky to be at a building where the AC is on this early. All the teachers say this is not normal, so I guess I won't expect it every year.
