Teachers Pay Teachers Sale!

Greetings everyone!

It's that time again... When teachers gear up, parents do a happy dance, and students look forward to actively socializing constantly!  Yup, school is about to begin again!

To help teachers gear up, Teachers Pay Teachers is throwing a huge sale, with many items discounted up to 28%!  Everything in my own store is on sale, though I definitely encourage everyone to take a look around as there are tons of excellent resources across the site.

Here is the link to my store: http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Nathan-Earley

I am working on several projects right now, and hope to have some interesting updates in the next few days.

Among other news: I have a student teacher!  Granted, it's a "buoy" placement, so it's only 6 weeks or so, but it's going to be an interesting adventure all around.

Until next time,

I am really bad at this...

Good morning!

I have noticed recently a bunch of people repinning this blog on Pinterest.  My hope is that this is a sign of increased traffic, that people will come and read and either be inspired or made to think about something or at least interested enough to come back.  I know I haven't been as good about keeping up with posts as I should.

However -

With the new school year coming I plan to have quite a few new things to show and discuss, starting with my classroom itself.

I had planned on already having all of my personal things moved into my room and be at least partially set up by now, but that has not quite happened.  One of the joys of being in a Mobile Music Mansion is that it comes with some of the troubles that such Mobile Mansions are prone to.  For example, for two years we have been chasing a series of ceiling leaks.  Roofing people have come and looked, other maintenance folks have looked, and the building service folks have replaced the affected ceiling tiles something like 6 times, all to no avail.

As a result, my plans to post a before school classroom tour are postponed a bit, though I may get a few good shots of my room packed up yet in disarray due to ladders and plastic sheets and whatnot.

Rest assured, however, that posts will be forthcoming, and hopefully as engaging as I imagine them to be.

I hope everyone has had a fulfilling, relaxing Summer, and we're all ready to dive into the next school year!
