Summer Prep Series ☀️ Tip #2


Hey Teacher Friends!

I hope you’re settling into summer and finding time to relax, recharge, and enjoy a slower pace. Around here, summer means spending lots of time in the car while my kids bounce between camps, activities, and all the fun things they wait all year to do. 🚗😆

This week’s Summer Prep Tip is one you can do from anywhere—while waiting at practice, lounging by the pool, or relaxing on the couch.

☀️ Summer Prep Tip #2: Start stocking your TPT cart for next school year.

Don’t worry—you don’t need to buy anything yet! In fact, I usually wait for the big back-to-school sale in August. 😉

Instead, use the summer to casually browse. Save classroom decor ideas, bookmark resources that catch your eye, and add potential purchases to your cart as you find them.

When August rolls around, you’ll already have a list of resources you’re excited about instead of trying to make decisions during the back-to-school rush. Plus, looking at fresh classroom ideas is a lot more fun when there’s no pressure attached!

Hey Teacher Friends, Happy Summer! ☀️ I hope you're settling into summer break mode! Before we talk back-to-school prep, may I suggest taking a break! Read a book for fun, sleep in, take a trip, spend time with family, binge your favorite show, or simply enjoy not hearing the sound of a school bell for a while. You've earned it! When you're ready, I'll be popping into your inbox throughout the summer with a few simple prep ideas that can help make August feel a little less overwhelming. ☀️...

friends with a caterpillar

Hey teacher friends! We have some very exciting new “class pets” in our room this week… caterpillars! 🐛 My students are already SO invested in watching them grow, and we’ll be observing the full life cycle before releasing them as butterflies. There’s just something so special about experiencing that transformation in real time! If you’re doing a butterfly unit (or want an easy way to bring a little spring learning into your classroom), I wanted to share a few of my favorite resources: 🦋...
