About Me

North Carolina, United States
Hey y'all! I've been teaching in North Carolina for 19 years. I have taught kindergarten, first, and second grade, but last year I moved up to fourth grade and I love it! I am National Board Certified (and re-certified!) in Early Childhood, and have a Master's Degree in K-12 Reading Education. I am also a Licensed Reading Specialist. While I love teaching, I love my family more! I am blessed to be married to the man of my dreams who has given me two beautiful sons. How can I ask for more?

A New Classroom Job Chart...Finally!

After many years of using the same classroom job chart over and over, I finally made a new one! Don't get me wrong, I loved my set from Loving Guidance, but I felt that moving to the "upper grades" warranted a new chart. Here is the one I used for years...



After searching Pinterest, I came across this post from the Clutter Free Classroom. I loved her board, but knew I could not order ONE MORE THING before returning back to school. So I created my own version on a spare bulletin board I had, and I am so pleased with the results! I covered an old rocking chair with the paisley fabric, and had enough to cover the bulletin board. I will use mini-clothespins for each student's name. 

It is hard to believe that two weeks from now, the chart will actually be in use! This summer has flown by!
