Monday Made It June 30th


Summer is here, but that doesn't mean all of us teachers aren't working!  I think many of us work harder in the summer getting things ready for the upcoming year.  I know this because Monday Made It is always full of evidence of it!

Here are a few of the things I have made this week:


Ok, I have jumped on the spray painting band wagon! I have these containers where I keep all of my supplies, but the covers were getting a little dingy from all the little hands touching them. 







They may have even been a little extra loved on and decorated.  Gotta love 4th grade humor right??? 

Anyway... I had thought about bringing them home to scrub with some Mr. Clean Magic Erasers, but then I saw everyone in bloggy world spray painting the heck out of everything they could get their hands on, so I decided, why not?

Before




After.



Luke also decided to join the spray painting party.  He had us spray paint his pegs for his bike (they were silver) so that it matches.  He may have gotten the matching OCD thing from me..


I also managed to make my new Whole Brain Teaching 5 Rules posters to match my room.  The matching OCD thing..  I still need to cut around the laminate and hang them up, but they are made!





And.. I managed to give my TpT store a little love with 2 new products! 

Homophones Bingo


and 

Prefixes and Suffixes Bingo


Both of these products were flash freebies this weekend, and I let my Facebook fans know about it.  If you aren't already following me on Facebook, make sure you do to find out about flash freebies like this one!



And speaking of following, make sure you are following me on Bloglovin' as well.  I have a big 500 follower giveaway coming up that you don't want to miss!  I am already a bit over 500 followers on TpT and I am getting close on Bloglovin' I would love to be at 500 on both by July 5th (hint, hint).  



Make sure you link up to 4th Grade Frolics and show us what you've made!  If you don't know how to link up, check out the tutorial on linking up to linky parties I wrote yesterday.

  3. You are right about spray painting! Seems like every blog I visit has some kind of spray painted project on it! My Monday Made It also turned into a spray painting party, haha

  4. Well I get ya on the OCD matching thing. I am working on dying my pocket chart so that it matches my room..lol..the royal blue just totally clashes with my room theme. Love the idea of spraying the lids. I may have to do that since I have like 3 different colors going on in my cupboards right now.

  5. I so want to do the same thing to my box lids... how long did it take to dry? All mine are in my cupboard at school - going to have to wait until I get access August 1st. :) Thanks for sharing!

  6. Your spray painting looks great. I always get it all over myself. I'm not very good at it. I always have to make sure I don't wear my contacts if I'm spray painting too.
    YAY for your almost 500 followers on Bloglovin and definitely YAY for the 500 on TpT!
