Winner and Sneak Peak!

We have a winner for the label/ribbon set give-a-way hosted by Run! Miss Nelson's Got The Camera. Congratulations to Karen G. (click here to be directed to Miss Nelson's Blog for details)

This is just a short post today, my brain is tired...I've been busy working on labels/ribbons and buckets. Even some things for my own room! Because it's such a short post I thought I would give you a little sneak peak of a few of my OWN classroom items!

Run! It's A Give-A-Way!

I am so excited to announce that I teamed up with Michele Nelson over at Run! Miss Nelson's Got the Camera for a label/ribbon set give-a-way!

We are both classroom bloggers but got to talking through my side business Quite A Pear...where I make buckets (go ahead tilt your head and think "make buckets"??) If you haven't checked them out already (most teachers have) you really should, and my other "pear" makes some AMAZING things as well!

Here are a few of the items we offer:

Anyway Michele asked me to help her "repair" her own buckets. Her post all about it is here! I have always sold my buckets and caddies all put together. (oh, did I mention her classroom is SUPER cute?!?!?!) But recently, and due to my relocation, it's been difficult to get caddies in, they have been on back order. So I thought why not just make the labels and ribbon sets and offer them as well (and any other labels/letter/ribbon/fabric sets)? Well, I've gotten great feedback on them and lots of orders!

Quite a Pear is trying to get 1,000 followers and Miss Nelson is helping! So click below and enter to win 5 label and ribbon sets for your classroom or whatever you would like to use them for!!!

A Little Birdie...

...not only came to my classroom today, but told me a little secret!

I had my first classroom visitor today! As I was wrapping things up and getting ready to leave I wanted to take a picture of my view from one of the windows in my room.

Pretty huh...the snow has melted from the mountain but you can still sort of see it.

Anyway as I was snapping that pic I heard a thud, scaring the crap out of me (I was the only one in the building), I looked over and saw this little guy...staring at me and a little stunned of course!

He didn't even fly into the window, nor the door (it's all glass), but actually hit the door handle. So I tempted to get a little closer....

I think he was saying "what are you staring at???" that and making sure he still had a beak! 

I did get my room cleaned out. Found a ton of stuff...I don't think I need two teacher sets of SS curriculum :)  And emptied a few boxes of my own. Including getting my classroom library unpacked (most of my boxes were books, can't part with those!)

It looks like a real library! I'll let you know how I'm going to manage it this year...when I have it all done.

Sooooooo the secret that this little visitor told me...was that someone was going to be having a give-a-way tomorrow!!!! I'll spill the beans tomorrow :)  *Don't forget I'm on west coast time now!
