Randomness

My mind must already be in school mode... The past few nights I am seriously wide awake at 3 in the morning. Ideas and lists are swirling around in my head already and I don't go back until after Labor Day!

Before I even hit the pillow last night though a major jolt of thunder swooped over our house and actually caused the entire house to shake. This was a bit unnerving since I was the only one home. I was ready to scurry down to the basement if need be! They are calling for the same tonight. Not looking forward to that.
I have started organizing and purging my school materials from last school year. Do you ever just throw things in a bag and then just bring it home and go through it when you are good and ready? I am nearing the end of this tedious process. I can then focus on things that  I want to make for my
classroom.


 I  am switching my theme from the jungle to cute monsters. Love all the things I have seen on Pinterest. I feel Iike my To Do List keeps getting longer and longer. I realize it will eventually get done.

Another area I am focusing on this summer is Math Daily 5. I have been blog stalking and gathering some ideas to implement this in the fall. This picture above I took off the internet with images so I am not sure who developed this...but now I am on the hunt again. I love Daily 5 so I am hoping I can swing this as well.. I have also been reading Guded Math this summer..... I think this could possibly go hand in hand.

I have also been cooking some pretty good dishes this summer. The Pioneer Women's Snowpea Stir Fry  is delicious. So is Ina Garten's Corn Salad with basil. I have also made Toffe Bars with graham crackers,butter,brown sugar and pecans. These I found on the Cooking Channel...by Julia Baker.
 Talk about yummy!

So here is hoping since I have all this randomness jotted down that I can sleep a bit better tonight.
Thank you for humoring me.
