New School Year

I wish we could roll back time to my last post - it was mid-summer! 
 
Ryan started his senior year of high school! Hard to believe this is the last year of high school - time is going by way too quickly!
I landed in my friend's second grade classroom this year. (She's in red below):

I have three supported ed students - I am enjoying working with them.....so far! 

I was asked to create a couple displays/signs - This is a classroom sign for a teacher in second grade:
 
 
This is the bulletin board in the faculty lounge.  We have many new staff members this year - so to welcome them and for the staff to get to know them, I created a movie themed bulletin board.  Each new "cast member" answered questions about themselves and I wrote the information on a movie clapper - their photo and name (in lights!) appears next to the movie clapper.  The board had the black polka dotted material already  -  it sort of resembles theatre lights!  Along the edges of the bulletin board is each staff members yearbook picture with a sticker showing their name and position in the building.  This way the new teachers can get to know the "older" staff!
 



I've been doing quiet a bit of shopping!  I purchased over 50 necklaces at Kohls last weekend!  They were having a great sale......couldn't pass up those deals!

  Football season is under way. The varsity games are on Friday night and then Saturday mornings are the Jr. Varsity games.  I am the team photographer, so I'm on the field until late Friday night - come home, edit, upload, share links and get up and do the same thing the following morning!
This Friday's game is Mother Appreciation - can't wait to see what the boys have in store for us! 
 
My brother, David, decided to upgrade his Smartphone - so I "inherited" his Droid 3.
 We figured since we were upgrading to a data package - Ryan would also get a Smartphone - He got the Droid Charge:

 
Until next time.........
