It's that time of year again....




Okay okay, it's this time of year that many a teacher dreads to hear the "s" word shhh you know :whispers: school :shudders: hehe I kid I kid.  I do get excited about going back to school.  Once August hits my brain starts to whirl with ideas for bulletin boards, new lessons, getting to see all my teacher friends, and meet the students.  Last year I bribed convinced my principal to purchase me a Cricut Expression to keep at school in exchange for doing most of the hallway bulletin boards (this is truly my elementary teacher background coming out from behind my middle school teacher mask).  She excitedly and happily agreed so I have a pretty expression that lives in my lab closet for those days when my inspiration hits.  I must say that between teaching and being an RA for 2 years my bulletin board skillz have greatly improved.  I can put up a long bulletin board all by myself with no one to hold the other end of the paper.  I made a quick and VERY simple bulletin board yesterday at school.  Take a look if you have a chance...







Happy Crafting,

  1. The push pins are a great idea! Fifteen years of bulletin boards, and I never thought of it?!?!!!!
