Welcome to my first official blog post! I have thought about this for some time and have gone back and forth about starting my own blog. I have been following some amazing teachers/bloggers through the past few years and wondered "could I do that too?" So, as I sit here on a Friday night (woo hoo!), completing some professional development (aka: Pinterest) I figured, "why not...do something out of your comfort zone, take the plunge, you get the idea!
Just to take another minute, I figured I'd tell you just a few quick things about myself and what my plans are for the blog. I will be starting my 14th year of teaching first grade up in a northern suburb of Chicago! Teaching runs in my family and it's something I always knew I wanted to do...from the days of playing school in my family room, to typing "reports" on my mom's typewriter (ew, I just dated myself) to getting excited when the new school supplies came out at all of the stores! When I'm not teaching, I enjoy playing the occasional tennis game, traveling, trying to get on the healthy train by working out and eating right, and doing some retail therapy.
As I mentioned, this is something I figured I'd start and just see where it goes. As of now, I hope to post here and there about what I'm doing in my classroom, give some tips along the way, or just give the occasional insight into what first grade is really like!
If you've made it this far, thank you sooooo much for taking the time to read through and I hope you come back soon! The next step will be to show you some before pics of the classroom as I prep for the next round of firsties!
Thank you again and I'll be back soon!
Kim
