Monday Made It



This past week has been kind of blah for me for some reason.  I AM enjoying my summer vacation, but I have not been motivated to do much of anything.  Today I am feeling a bit better (even made it to Body Pump this morning) so hopefully it was just a short thing that has passed.  Anyway, enough of that and on with the things I did manage to accomplish! I am linking up with 4th Grade Frolics for Monday Made It.


This year I have decided to match my classroom to my blog.  I know, I know, maybe a little bit overboard, but I like it, so don't judge! LOL!  Anyway, I've gotten started with an alphabet display and numbers for my clock.




I wanted to hang them up, but they weren't finished cleaning up my classroom yet.  It looked like this when I went in.




I am thinking I will hang the alphabet on this wall, but I'm not 100% sure since my word wall is going on the opposite wall.  Decisions, decisions.




The other thing I made this week were my business cards for the upcoming Teachers Pay Teachers conference.  I am so excited and can't wait to meet all of my teaching blog besties in real life!


They came out pretty cute if I do say so myself... I ordered them from Zazzle and I am very impressed with the quality and the ship time was AMAZING!  I wasn't expecting to get them until at least July and they came in less than a week!

Made It Monday - How to Build Your Own Reading Ottomans For Your Classroom Student Project

I purchased some small reading Ottomans from Wal-Mart last year and they were broken during the first month that I had them.  One of my parents offered to take them home to try to repair them.  The repair never happened, but what did was so much better.  The couple came into our classroom to help us make our own.  The kids had a blast and learned so much from the experience.  Students from other classes peeked into our room and said, "You have woodshop in your class? Lucky!"  Here are a few of the pictures of the work in progress along with the final products.











Here is the link to the directions.

Monday Made It

 
Well, I haven't had much time to make anything (except for my classroom a mess - lol!).  I am moving into a new room that used to be the staff room, so there is a ton of junk and professional reading material that I've had to pack up before I could unpack my stuff.  I've been working on it for two days straight (yes I went in on Sunday) and I still don't feel like I've made a dent in it :(  I did manage to get my desk area together (really a table) but, that is about it.
 
I did need to take a short break from packing and unpacking, so I decided to work on these:
 
(still in progress)
 
 
(This one is complete)
 
I will be painting two more and will be using them for something special inspired by Pinterest.  When I finish I will show you the final project along with the pin that inspired it.  I can't wait to see the finished product!
 
I also worked on a game for my massive Place Value Unit- I hope to finish it up this weekend so it is ready for the beginning of school.  It is currently 220 pages!
 
 
And those are my Monday Made Its!  What did you make this week?
