Well, that's one heck of a title, huh? Since school started, the blogging has obviously dropped! Just too much to do and not enough time. That's why I'm loving October's Currently from Oh' Boy 4th Grade. She's gotten me motivated to make a post!
So I'm super excited about the changes in my body since I started going to boot camp in July. It's a GOOD problem that I need new clothes. It's not good that I feel kinda dumpy and like I have a saggy rear end all day. I think a shopping trip needs to happen ASAP!
Can you believe our district doesn't give us Columbus Day off? Ughhh! My husband (a Marine) even has the day off. I'm going to try and see if I can find a sub and maybe take Monday off, too. Anyone else have to work on federal holidays? Double ugh!
I know I'm breaking the rules with my book......but it was just released at the end of September. So that sorta makes it almost an Octoberish book, right? I LOVE J.R. Ward and this is her latest in the Fallen Angels series. I've just started reading it and so far so good!
I've also been meaning to do a Made it Monday post hosted by 4th Grade Frolics. But I can never seem to get it together to actually make the post. So today, I'm having a Made it {some}day post!
At the beginning of the school year, the art teacher sent out a school-wide email saying she had some free easels to give out. I was ALL over that. I've been needing an easel to use during whole group and to put my chart paper on. Well, this is what she had to give away for free!
Well, I knew I could make it into something great! I took the paint covered chalkboard and white boards off. I went to Home Depot and bought some new whiteboard (it was like $13 for a sheet). They'll even cut it for you for free! I then sanded the frame down, primed it, and painted it white. I bought the cute polka dot duct tape from Wal-Mart and put it around the edges. Then my husband helped me screw the new whiteboard onto the frame. And now VIOLA! I have an awesome chart that I can write on as a white board or use for my chart paper. Which is great because I use the heck out of some chart paper everyday! This is the new and improved easel!
Another thing on my to-do list FOREVER was to make these Making Words folders, which I saw on Pinterest. Teacher Bits and Bobs has the template for the letters for FREE! I used these today in one of my small groups and it was so much easier than finding/counting out the letters that everyone needed.
I know it's sideways, but you get the idea. I made the front cover and you can download it for free by clicking on the picture.
I've also been working on some Halloween and Thanksgiving stuff for my classroom.
I made this super cute Hocus Pocus sight word game. It has words that are typically taught in 1st grade. One of my dear followers requested I made some games with harder sight words.
I also used the same words to make this Gobble, Gobble sight word game that I just finished today.
And I'm really excited about these Common Core aligned Candy, Candy, Candy math centers.
And wow, I should really post more often! That was a WHOLE lot in one post! I hope everyone is hanging in there this school year!
YAY for your weight loss! That's awesome :) And I love your making words folders. I really need to do that! I'm your newest follower & just found you through the Currently Linky. I'd love for you to stop by sometime :)

Sasha,
DeleteI LOVE going to boot camp but man is it hard to get up at 4:30 for the morning class and it's so hard to motivate myself to go after work! It's nice to know we're not the only ones working on Monday (but I did find a sub for me).
Angelia
LOVE the easel and congrats on the weight loss! Shopping for new clothes is so much fun! We have workdays on federal holidays. Nice, huh? I'm a new follower!

ReplyDeleteSo, I was in the process of rebuilding my credit. I was in the upper 500’s and after a lot of research I decided to go ahead and take a chance at contacting PINNACLECREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM even though many people didn’t believe in credit repair companies. I am a living witness that contacting PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST will raise your credit score. I am now at 802, 7 collections have been deleted. Good luck to anyone going down the same road I am. Let them know Janice Bonne referred you.
ReplyDeleteAfter my marriage 3 months ago, I applied for a home loan, so that I and my wife could move to a better apartment, but I got a negative reply, which I was told was a result of my credit score. When I pulled my score it was below average. I had $12,000 student loan, some credit card debt, charge off and an eviction. PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST helped me erase all the above negative reports and boosted my score to excellent in less than 6 days. I’m recommending them to any one in need of credit assistance. Contact them via EMAIL: PINNACLECREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM or CALL their MOBILE: +1 (323) 406 1225.
ReplyDeleteI intend to propose to my long-time girlfriend later this summer, so that we can move to Las Vegas together by the end of December. After that, we needed urgent help fixing our credit. I had a car loan, student loans and credit card debt. I also had another debt (mortgage). My girlfriend had 93k in consumer debt, with 75k of it on credit cards and the rest on her Acura. She does well in her career (makes $120k/yr. gross) which she has a spending issue. Well, I sought help online and I read quite a lot of good reviews about a credit guy called PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST. I contacted him for credit help. We got started and after a couple of days, PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST cleared the debts on my credit profile and eventually raised my score to 811. All these miracles happened in March. Feel free to contact him by email: PINNACLECREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM Or phone +1 (409) 231-0041 for credit related issues.

ReplyDeleteI’m writing this review in appreciation to this great credit specialist called PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST. I can’t stop thanking them for the good job they did on my credit. I had been suffering from financial bondage until I met a PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST. They promised to turn my situation around and they kept their promise.

ReplyDeleteI wanted to purchase a car months ago, but I wasn’t approved for a loan, I needed a score of at least 700 to be approved for the loan, but my score was at 529. I had many hard inquiries, collections, late payments, unpaid debts and eviction. I contacted this life saver called PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST; they helped me wipe all the negative items and raised my score to 811 across the three credit bureaus. It’s been 2 weeks now and nothing is coming back. Call their number +1 (409) 231-0041. Or text them by email: PINNACLECREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM
ReplyDeleteHi there, everyone, I’m John, please to meet you all. I work as a security with a fair rent since I live with a family who doesn’t want me to live alone and have a good paying job. My goal is to build a good credit score to get a good credit card. In April I had 140 dollars or so collections from a gym saying I never canceled my membership. I wasn’t getting charged the monthly fee for it. So, I randomly go on credit karma and see the collections. Few days after I contacted PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST, they increased my score to 809 and improved my credit profile by removing the collections, charge off and late payments. I just saw today it says no more derogatory on my credit Karma. My score went up. I sincerely acknowledge their relentless efforts and urge you to contact PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST for any credit related issue. Contact info: PINNACLECREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM Or Call 409 231 0041. Honestly, I do not enjoy writing much, but I have let the world know about this genius that helped me.
ReplyDeleteI read something about PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST that he fixed and repaired credit reports. I had Chapter 7 BK, 1 auto loan with Wells Fargo. My scores were 560, 563 and 552. I got in touch with him, and he started the repair which took him 9 days. He proved me wrong by sending me a link to confirm his work done and I must confirm it myself on Experian and Credit Karma. I got a congratulatory email from Experian that my score went up. My scores boost up to 811, 809, 802, all my scores are above 800’s. He also helped me apply for a credit card with high limits with several banks. I’m so happy and can’t thank him enough for the life changing results. Contact him now by email: PINNACLECREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM / Text +1 (409) 231-0041.
ReplyDeleteI just want to share how I became a homeowner with the help of PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST for fixing my credit report. The negative items on my credit report deprived me of so many opportunities alongside 5 derogatory and 2 collections which messed up my report and lowered my credit score to EQ: 547, TU 564, EX 521. After my mom told me about PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST, I reached out to them immediately and complied with their proposal. After five days he helped me boost my credit score to EQ: 809, TU 801, EX 811 excellent standard and he also deleted all negative collections and derogatory ones on my credit report. These finally got me a mortgage for my new house and credit cards. Contact him now by email: PINNACLECREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM Or call +1 (409) 231-0041.

ReplyDeletePINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST remains the best credit expertise I have known. I had 6 negative items and a couple of late payments last year and my score tanked. One of them is from Capital One and another from Chase which I paid off and I am not sure of the others but they’re both 6 years old. I filed bankruptcy 5 years ago and settled with all of these. My attention was called that they’re still on my report I recently got referred by my wife to hire (PINNACLECREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM / +1 (409) 231-0041) which I did and he helped me boost my credit to (700 Equifax, 704 and 710 Experian) also deleted all negative items on my credit report including the late payments. I recommend anyone that needs to fix his or her credit to get through with PINNACLE. He is just the best.
ReplyDeleteMy name is David Gerard, and I desperately need to raise my credit score, I had a lot of issues with my credit, and no one has been able to help me until I came across PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST. I used to be 573 but it's not my fault. My ex-wife used my credit to the point that I couldn’t get approved for any credit card. I implore you to get in touch with PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST, he promised to fix my credit within 10 days. He got my scores up to 800’s across the three credit bureaus in less than 10 days and deleted all negative marks and collections including the public record. His fee is very affordable, the most interesting thing is that he kept to his words. Kindly hit him up on email: PINNACLECREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM Or call +1 (409) 231-0041.

ReplyDeleteOver the past couple of years, I brought my credit up from the 500s to mid-600s. But chronic overspending destroyed my credit. My utilization used to be a solid example in how NOT to use credit. My 4 largest CLs hovered near max, and every other month or so I’d let one get reported 90%+. Then I had a bunch of cards with low limits ($300, $400, stayed at 0 or close to it. With a heart filled with joy and gratitude, I say a big thanks to the team at PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST for helping me achieve my dream. Today I see on myFICO that my scores on Equifax, Experian and TransUnion have hit 800s for the very first time in my life. after PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST helped me fix my credit. No new accounts or closures, no delinquencies or inquiries have been reported, no charge offs at all. I’ve been checking my credit since today both on credit karma and WalletHub. I recommend: PINNACLECREDITSPECIALIST@GMAIL.COM OR Call +1 (409) 231-0041.
