Today was the first day of school for the 2011-2012 school year and my 23rd first day of school. Wow! I honestly cannot imagine doing any other job where I didn’t get to experience the first day back after a long summer off. I love the sleepless night beforehand, the back to school shopping, the school supplies! Oh, the school supplies. Honestly, that’s probably half of the reason I do what I do (I kid.)
My new babies were great today and I loved seeing their excited faces this morning greeting all of their friends. I had several of my old babies come see me and they seemed so much older than I remember them. Is that seriously possible?!?
I posted some of the projects I did for my classroom last night but did not include my new wreath!
I was totally inspired by Lauren’s Pinterest wreath board and had to add this wreath to my room. It’s very elementary, but the teacher-nerd in me HAD to hang this in my room. I got sooo many compliments from my babies today so it was totally worth it. And seriously SO EASY! Honestly, $10 and an hour is all you need for this project. I used my cricut for the letters and laminated them at school. This would make a great gift for a teacher and one the teacher is sure to love!
What do you think? How was your first day of school?
