Meet the Teacher

By
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!

    ❤️❤️❤️ 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?

    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.

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. ...

Welcome to Plan With Me Sundays Blog Hop! This is my first time participating and I am so excited! I have been a planner all of my life and I absolutely love writing things down and organizing my life. This week I wanted to link up with Keeping up with Mrs. Harris and Kreative in Kindergarten because I love looking at other people's planners. Before I share with you my planner(s) I just want to let you know that I have THREE, yes three. One is my personal planner with my every day to do lists, chores, appointments, etc. My second is my business planner. I use this to organize things for work, my TpT store and blog, as well as my Etsy. The third planner is my Erin Condren teaching planner. I will not be sharing that planner this week, but you can learn all about it HERE . I will be sharing two of my planners here with you today. The first is my business planner. It is an Erin Condren planner in the vertical layout. I love this layout because it is broken down into thre...
