Monday Made It (But...Tuesday Posted It!) & TPT Sale Rave!!!!

Hey all...Just realized it's been too long since I last told you all about my endeavors as I close out this summer. I am slightly jealous of everyone's fascinating pictures of their classrooms. I can't wait to get in to my room and GET TO WORK!!! I decided on a cute theme inspired by some new signs I bought from Teaching In Flip Flops last night at the TPT sale!
Let's pause for a moment and reflect on the past two days of shopping heaven!!! God bless TPT for their sale and God bless all the wonderful teachers for posting all the great stuff (and even offering additional sales!) So after about an hour of TPT searching I decided on ...

Practically EVERYTHING  that was in that darn cute Zebra print from Teaching In Flip Flops and I also bought a cool Sports Themed Setting Goals Packet from Teaching in Room 6... and a Greek and Latin Root Word Wall set from Forkin4th ....I also bought a few other things too!


Now on to Monday Made It! (But Tuesday I posted It!)
I didn't make too many crafty things this week because everything was done on the computer but here is what I did attempt to be crafty with....

I saw this idea on Pinterest a while ago and put it on my summer to do list...(Disclaimer: In my mind, I attempted to make 6 of these so that I could have a class set for student mail boxes...However, after making one of these I had second thoughts) ...Sooo I'm not sure what this will be when I get done with it! Maybe a paper shelf of some sort! Any suggestions!

Directions: Head over to your local Post Office and grab a desired number of packaging boxes, build the boxes, spray spray spray that adhesive, and cover with wrapping paper...and taa daaa!!!! Your very own shelving unit of some sort!


Then I went over to my trusty TPT site and found this awesome list of 101 Writing Prompts from Katie! (After the usual process of printing and laminating...looks like I have a date with a pair of scissors!)

Well...That's all I have for you today friends!
Have a wonderful week!
