Currently.........April Edition!

April 1st is here again!  Wow!  I can't believe we are this far into the school year already.  I have such a good group and our year is flying by.  I'm excited to link up with Oh' Boy 4th Grade for Currently in April.

Listening: I started streaming Hart of Dixie on Netflix.  It is an adorable show.  It is light and easy to watch, as well as do other things at the same time (like this blog post).  I was looking for a new show and came across Hart of Dixie.  This is the most spirited small town ever!  I *mostly* grew up in the south (Louisiana) and so some of the southern aspects are so charming and remind me of my youth.  Rachel Bilson is in it and I have been a fan of hers since The OC!

Loving: My student teacher is great!  She did practicum hours at the beginning of the school year in my room every Tuesday.  After the winter break she was upstairs doing her student teaching in fourth grade.  Now, she is back in Kinder.  Yahoo!!!!!  I feel so blessed to have a very capable student teacher and the children also adore her.  I am so excited to have her work up to solo teaching and also to be able to pull some students and give them some one:one support.

Thinking:  My to-do list is so long.  It seems like there is so much to do at school and so much to do at home.  We were out of town for spring break and so just coming back to "reality" has felt crazy!  I am also trying to make sure I get at least my 10,000 steps with my Fitbit and sometimes there are just not enough hours in the day.  Anybody else feel constantly busy?

Wanting: I have been wanting to make some QR Code activities for my class and so I started researching how to go about creating them.  I am excited to make some new activities for my students and TpT store, but, it is just a matter of making them - you know, since I have so much on my to-do list (see Thinking above)!  Teehee.

Needing: I need to get some new art work and academic activities going so I can switch over things in my room and hallway bulletin board.  All of a sudden March is over, we are back from spring break, and everything looks like it is sooooo last month.  Ha!

EGGS-Plain your name: When I first started out on Teachers pay Teachers my store was actually under my name.  Then, I decided to change it to a logo.  My husband and I were talking about all different kinds of ideas and when Kindergarten Planet came up - and it just fit.  I loved it!!!!  I'm so happy with it.

I hope all of you are enjoying April and survived any April Fools pranks.
