~~Rockin' Resources Linky Party~~

I am joining Kelley over at Teacher Idea Factory for her very first linky party.  She asked everyone to blog about things we couldn't live without in our classroom.  There are so many things I LOVE in my classroom!  Here are my top items I cannot possibly teach without in my classroom.

                                                                            Cubbies

 I just love having student cubbies in my classroom. Each student has his/her own basket to hold supplies. My classroom and student desks are organized and neat! They are also on wheels--I can move them whenever I want!

                

                                                                             Sharpies

I LOVE, LOVE Sharpie markers! I use them on everything!! I especially love the fine tip markers! Grading papers, drawing, labeling items, whatever I need them for, I will use a Sharpie. I have every color Sharpie in my classroom.

 

Dry-Erase Markers

Having different colored dry-erase markers is a must in my classroom. When teaching a skill, I use different colors to help my students learn better. My students enjoy when I use their favorite color on the board.

                    
                                                                            Baskets

I have lots of different colored baskets in my classroom. I use baskets for my library, centers, cubbies, extra supplies, treasure box, and candy treats! I purchase my baskets from the Dollar Tree Store. I love having bright colors in my classroom!!!!



So, now you know what I MUST have in my classroom to survive!  Of coarse, I use many other things daily.  These are just some of the things I use all day!!!  Please don't forget to stop by Kelley @ Teacher Idea Factory and see what other teachers cannot possibly live without in the classroom!

~~Check Out My New Look~~

I LOVE my cute, new blog design!  I fell in love with this design from Dreamlike Magic on Friday, and I knew I had to have it for my blog.  Within 6 hours, my blog was redesigned!!  Thank you so much!!! Please check out Dreamlike Magic if you are looking for a cute new blog design!!!

~~~Me, Myself, and I~~~

We have only 4 1/2 days of school left!! I am so ready for the summer, the beach, & just being lazy.  I made a memory book for my students to work on while I tested each student individually.  The students had a wonderful time working on this booklet.  Please enjoy!!! Happy Summer!!!
