Crafty Library Cart

Hello blogger friends! I hope your summer is treating you well.
As I’m sure most of you do too, I am finding lots of summer projects to keep me busy! With no kiddos of my own and my husband in summer school- I’ve got a lot of time to spend in my classroom. Luckily my school allows us to be up there all summer- or I don’t know what I’d do!
Anyway, I have recently acquired a fantabulous {my husband likes to point at that this is not a word- but hey, I still like using it! } library cart.

I am going to be painting/designing it in some way that will go with my safari/jungle theme. I am so excited to have this in my room- I’ve already though of so many uses for it.
{Putting it by my reading group table, using it for our thematic books, math manipulatives…}
I’d love any crafty ideas you might have for making over this piece of fun for my classroom! :)

Mock Clock Faces

I have gotten a lot of comments about this so I just wanted to dedicate a post to my mock clock faces! At the beginning of this past year (which was my first year teaching) my kids kept hounding me and hounding me about when we go to lunch, when we go to recess, etc. So I came up with the idea to make some clocks with the times drawn on. After they were up for a few days, my kids actually stopped asking me. Worked like a charm! :)
