Welcome to my blog.  There are many places where you could have found me.  If you’re so kind, you can comment below with where you found me.  That way I know who is reading this blog and how to direct the content based on who is reading it.
You may know me in real life, if that is the case, HELLO!  If not, you must know me from online or just randomly came across this blog.  Whether you are a teacher yourself, interested in teaching, or are just curious as to what this blog is about, well I will tell you.
First of all, I’d like you to know that there is a video that accompanies this blog and you can watch it below.  Or you can go to my YouTube page www.youtube.com/jennuineteaching


 I’ve been wanting to start a blog for a while now, but never knew if I should.  I mean, I’ve only been teaching for 1 year so how can that make me an “expert”?  Who would want to read about things a beginning teacher has to say?  Well… I would!!!  I love to read, watch, and see anything that can help me grow as an educator.  I do not consider myself an amazing teacher.  Although, one day I would like to be.  This little space on the internet I call my blog is just that, a blog.  A place where I can write my random thoughts on teaching subjects.
What to expect here are book reviews, pictures, ideas, lessons, websites, inspiration, whatever I feel like adding.  So please make this little blog a frequent visit.  I plan, but don’t get upset if I don’t, on updating this blog every Sunday.  Just to let you know, every post will not have a video.  You can expect every post to have at least a video, picture, or some other form of media.  Just to make it a little more interesting because I just write my posts as I’d like to read them.

People and Places that give me inspiration…
Until next time… BYE!!!

Monday Made It Planner Stickers

By
Today I am linking up for Monday Made It. It is my first time this summer. This summer has flown by and I can't believe that I only have one more week left until meetings and two weeks until I meet my new kindergarten students. Since the school year is sneaking up on me, I am in creative mode and crafting up a storm. As teachers, I feel like we all have something in common... a love for planning. Lesson planning, life planning, to do lists, etc. Over the past few months I have been creating my own planner stickers and I have become a little obsessed. I plan on making more as well as stickers for my teacher planner and lesson planner. If you are interested in some of my stickers, you can find them HERE . After taking a two year break from TpT, I have started updating my old products and creating new ones. One of those includes my Neon Chalkboard Classroom Rules. You can find them HERE for free in my TpT store.

Before Pictures

Many people that walk into my classroom think that it is such a clean and organized room. Clean... yes. Organized... NO WAY!! Here is what everyone sees my classroom as... I love my room and I spent a lot of time rearranging it to make it fit my needs as well as my students' needs. It is a very functional classroom, aside from the organizational piece that is missing. Today I am going to share with you my "secrets". Are you ready for them? I must say that they aren't pretty. Be warned, you are about to see my BEFORE photos.   This area looks fairly organized, except for the fact that I don't use ANY of it. I ocassionally lift up the fabric to get the students' reading books and a binder here and there, but other than that, these shelves are taking up prime real estate.   One of my few cabinets that lock is filled with supplies that don't need to be locked up.  Math centers that have never been used because I still have no clue how I want to organize them. ...

I'm Not a Turkey

By
With Thanksgiving coming up, I am reminded of all the things that I am thankful for. I am thankful for my wonderful family and friends. I am also thankful for such a sweet bunch of second graders this year. I want to keep this post short and sweet so I will leave you with one of my favorite writing activities, I'm not a turkey. I'm sure there are many variations of this activity, but I just love it so much.  I love the creativity that comes out during this assignment. One of my favorites... I'm not a turkey. A turkey has feathers. I have hands. Can I ask you a question? Do turkeys go to school? No they do not. I am a student. I talk a lot. If you eat me, I can talk in your stomach. If you eat a student, you go to jail. Ohhh so creative!!
