Well, I had my first PD day of this school year and my second year is off to a great but tiring start! I was so not ready for my 5:30 am wake-up call this morning! Summer construction meant no time in my classroom before today. I'll post before and after pictures of my classroom either tomorrow or the following day but I wanted to share some highlights from this first day back. I probably spent too much time on this when I could have been decorating bulletin boards but it was intensely satisfying having one project done! I have four different types of colored paper: heavy card stock, light weight card stock, copy paper and construction paper. And now they're all beautifully organized and sorted by color! This little guy was in our PD folders. My school is making a move towards standards based grading. We're not implementing it this year but we are preparing for the shift next year. It was thoughtful of our administers to include this guy-they even laminated them! But..... I might print out a bolder one on more colorful card stock (now more accessible) to hang in my classroom (mathequalslove has a great one here. We'll see how productive my day is tomorrow...
