Love to Teach & Learn - Big Time Blogging Challenge

Ahh! I've been participating In Big Time Literacy's Big time Blogging Challenge.  Today's topic is to write about how we ended up in education.  I have to say that I'm not entirely sure how it happened.  Growing up I had a sort of Love/Hate relationship with school.  Somehow though I made it through and graduated before my 30th birthday! It was one of my proudest achievements! Eleven years later I still love my job to the max!

Today I went to I TEACH K here in Vegas.  It was amazing.  I spent the day with friends from school in Kim Adsit's sessions  She is amazing and I have learned so much.  I was going to post some pictures that I took but they came out bad.  But, If you check out her blog she did a re-cap and she even posted links to her Facebook Fan Freebies!  I think they are great for kindergarten and even first grade (just click on this picture from her blog)!


Don't forget to head over to Big Time Literacy to check out the Big Time Blogging Challenge!

    I think going to any sort of gathering amongst other educators always ignites the passion again. I know I always feel more motivated coming back from a gathering I am truly passionate about. Sounds like you had a great time!

    No matter how we all came into this profession - I think the best is when you love your job! The best is when you did struggle with something and then go back to teach it. I hated reading and have always struggled with it - but now I can relate to my students and try to help them in a different way!

    Ok, I'm totally jealous of all the bloggers attending teaching conferences in Vegas. That is definitely the right way to spend summer vacay!!

Back to School Giveaway!

  I can not believe it has been two years since I opened my little   TPT   Store!!!   I am so thankful   for all of the support I have found.   I started my store thinking that if I could make back the money for what I spent on clip art, then I could buy more clip art to make more stuff for my classroom.   When I make stuff for my classroom, I share it.   Then I get to buy more clip art! Now, it has turned into a hobby that I   truly   enjoy.  The first big project I made was my behavior calendars.  I update them every year and they are still free. They are a great tool for communicating with parents.   The first item I made for purchase was my kissing hand unit.  It was so difficult because I was just learning how to create products.  In the end I love they way it turned out.   So, in honor of my two year TPT anniversary I am giving away 3 copies of my Kissing Hand Unit (If you already own it...
