Meet the Teacher

Hello and welcome to my blog!

This blog is a place where I like to share what I do inside my classroom as well as things to prepare for teaching. I have always been a fan of blogs and even started web design at age 12. I have had many websites and many blogs. I used to blog over at Darling Little Learners until I decided to make my home here at Jennuine Teaching. Why the switch? I made a big decision to leave not only my first school I've ever taught at, but also the only grade I've ever taught.

History lesson...
All through out my life I've always wanted to be a teacher. I transformed my bedroom closet into a classroom and my little sister was always my number one student. Whenever someone asked me what I was going to be when I grew up, the answer was always, TEACHER! I had no doubt in my mind that I wanted to teach. When everyone else in high school and community college were trying to figure out what it was that they wanted, I was just waiting until I could graduate and get my own classroom.

All throughout college I would browse teacher websites and look up to teachers like Angela Bunyi and Beth Newingham. I learned a lot from these bloggers and it even inspired me to make my own blog and try out some of their tips and tricks.

I finally graduated college with my bachelors in Elementary Education. I got my first job with my best friend and I taught there happily for six years in second grade. It was the best years of my life.

Present Day...
I have since then gotten my early childhood endorsement and I am currently working on my masters in Curriculum and Instruction. Since getting my childhood endorsement I am now able to teach kindergarten. Kindergarten is something I've always wanted to try so I decided to make the switch. Since I was already switching grade levels, I decided to transfer schools. This meant that I had to leave my BFF and that was hard, but I knew the decision was the right one for me. Now I am teaching kindergarten and a school that I LOVE!!

New job... new blog!!
Since everything is so new to me, I figured I would make a fresh start, not only with my career, but also my blog. So welcome to Jennuine Teaching and I hope you stay for a while!

  1. ❤️❤️❤️ Your YouTube channel! You're sweet, creative and funny.
    Question: Do you prefer using your Cricut or your Silhouette? Which one gives you 'more bang for your buck for both crafting and teaching?

  2. Teachers are more than just educators; they are mentors, guides, and role models who play a pivotal role in shaping the future of their students. Their influence extends far beyond the classroom, inspiring students to reach their Rajshahi college full potential and become responsible, thoughtful members of society.

I'm Not a Turkey

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!!

Show and Tell Wednesday

I'm excited to announce that I am starting a new link up. It is called Show and Tell Wednesday. Every Wednesday I will be hosting a linky party. This is a place where you can share anything you would like. All you have to do is write a blog post about something you would like to share and tell us about it. It can be something from your TPT store, an activity that you did in your class, or anything else school/teaching related. I always love learning new things from fellow teachers and I'm always searching for new ideas. Here are a few rules for the link up. Become a follower of my blog. This is not necessary, but occasionally I will be doing giveaways and in order to be considered for the giveaway, you must be a follower. Also, you don't want to miss anything in the future! :-) Add the Show and Tell button on your blog post that you link up. Visit the person before your link and leave them some thoughtful feedback. Have fun!!!!  Here is my show and tell for the week. School...

3-2-1 Teacher Bio {Weekend Warriors}

I am linking up with Weekend Warriors to let you know a little bit about myself. I love getting to know other teachers and thought this would be a fun way to do it.   1. I love being a teacher and I have wanted to be one every since I was a little girl. I even turned my closet into a classroom and taught my sister and gave her homework to do. Even when she was done playing with me I would continue to play teacher by myself and my Barbies. If you peak into my classroom I am always with my students. I am either sitting on the floor with them reading a story, sitting at their tables during math time, and even dancing during Go Noodle with them. I love my job and being able to be a kid at heart 7 hours a day is pretty awesome!! 2.  I absolutely love center time. I love making and creating fun and engaging centers for my students and this year I am even going to add an additional math center time. This is a time where my students get to unwind a little, have some fun, ...
