My Favorite Things

Hello everyone! Welcome to my blog. If this is your first time! WELCOME! I do hope that you like what you see and you will want to come back over and over again. I am a teacher who loves to teach. I want everything I do to be engaging and very effective to the learning process. I make everything have a purpose behind what I am wanting my students to do. I love anything that is vivid in color, getting organized, and I'm addicted to Krista Wallden's clipart. If you don't know the Creative Chalkboard. Then click here and follow in love like me.

More importantly, I have teamed up with several fabulous teacher bloggers for My Favorite Things. Today I am featuring my Paragraph Writing Unit. I love this unit because it came out of a labor of love for my students. I had a group last year that struggles to write paragraphs. I decided that I needed to take immediate action. This unit came from that action. This unit has helped so many kids to understand the process of writing paragraphs.

So let's get to what we all came to hop around for. My Favorite Things.

I love Longhorn Steakhouse. Honestly, the love of this place came when my friend was pregnant with her first child. She would call me and after school we would head over for her to have a house salad with thousand island dressing. I would get a diet cherry coke. We did this 3-5 days a week. It was so bad that the whole staff knew us by name. They would even have our drinks to the table when we arrived. LOL! I was the best time. 

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this store. Ulta is the heaven of make up for me. I love earning points and love playing with make up. I watch so many videos on Youtube. I love Dulce Candy, Miss Chevious, Kandee Johnson, and anyone who loves the makeup that is my number 3. LOL! I always hope for gift certificates from this store. 

URBAN DECAY!!!! I love this company. I have always in the past bought the drug store makeup. Well let me just say, LADIES, spend the money and buy the good stuff. This makeup is so great. The pigments last so long. I could go for 3 day without changing my makeup. It is just the best. I have saved so much money since I have started buying the higher priced makeup. 

I love Christmas! I love the music, the movies (White Christmas), and the decorating of the tree. The newest tradition that we started was Percy the Penguin. Since everyone was doing the Elf on the Shelf, my husband wanted to be different plus teach about the bible. So, Percy was started. He recreated several bible stories. The kids loved looking for him. I am super excited about this fun adventure.

Last but not least, I love Flair pens. Actually, I love all pens but these I must have in my desk. They write so smooth and the colors are the best. I am a grade with a purple pen kinda teacher. These pens are the best in my opinion.




Okay so for this blog hop, I will be giving away a $25 gift certificate to Michael's. This is a store that most teachers love. I hope that whoever wins this will love it so much.
