All that’s left is the First Day Of School Fairy’s Arrival.

They’re coming, they’re coming…the kindersare coming!  It’s time.  Ready or not, tomorrow is the day  . . . The first day of the new school year.

I’m ready…kind of!  My most stressful part of the day is dismissal and I think I have that covered.

My ‘How We Get Home Board’ is done with almost all of the clothes pins where they belong.

Tags are ready to be zip tied to backpacks.  They won’t be wondering off to the wrong bus if I have anything to say about it. (Those little kinders are a slippery little bunch aren’t they?)

My ‘altered for the first week of school’ plans are ready.  Altered because I won’t start Math Stations until the second day of school and I won’t start Daily 5 until next week so I can do a bit of assessing and build some routines (and more importantly…relationships) this week.

New this year and the source of so much happiness for me . . . cupboards!!!  My new cupboards are in and everything has a place and is in it’s place.

Before cupboards!!!

After cupboards!!!! YIPPEE!!!!

I promise I’ll show you around my room later this week, but for now, I’m off to get ready for the First Day of School Fairy’s Arrival!!!! (If you aren’t familiar with the First Day of School Fairy,  click here to take a peek at her visit from last year.

Pray I make it through the day.
