Apologies, a Sneak Peek, and Many Thanks

I am so sorry I have been M.I.A. for the past few weeks. We have had a busy few weeks in the Johnson household! Traveling to Kansas for a worship leader conference with my husband, welcoming home my brother and his new fiance from South Korea, teacher workshops, reuniting with college roommates, working in the classroom, creating little projects (like this... more info soon)



... equals no time for bloggy blog. BUT I am back and hope to share many projects from my classroom and picture tour of course!

Now onto my thanks: I have been Pinterest-ing (again, I mean- who hasn't?!) and it's the time of year when organization is key. I'm readying my papers to have for Parent Orientation (in two and a half weeks, eek!) and thanks to Pinterest, I have found two gems that have made getting organized a wee bit easier.

1)A Back-To-School information form  from Mrs. Kincaid's First Grade: I especially liked how she did her transportation section, having the parents circle car/walk/bus/daycare, and then fill out the exact Daycare: so efficient!

2)A Weekly Organizer full of all of your to-do lists, meetings, and other necessities from What the Teacher Wants: this list would be great on your teacher table, by your computer, or clipped into your personal planner!


So thank you to these two incredible blogs! Hopefully I will be back this week with pictures, projects, and more!

I'm still here!

I promise!

It's been a busy time in the Johnson household. Here is what has been on the agenda:

-setting up not one, but TWO classrooms
-my brother and his fiance (who I met face to face for the first time) flying in from S. Korea (we picked them up at the airport in Austin)
-teacher workshops
-reuniting with my college roommates for Girls' Weekend 2011 (it's a big deal)!

Updates to come!


P.S. I have a question to ask. When blog reading, if you read someone else's blog who says a line or two that offend you, do you:
a)respond in their comment section (possibly rudely) and declare your opinion, or
b)let it slide because it's their blog and they can say what they want (just like you can say what you want on your own, personal blog)?

Do tell :)
