Tomorrow I start in my classroom, getting things ready for the students to arrive on the 28th. I am super excited to get in the room and get things set up. I have, so far, sketched out my curriculum for the year, and planned the first couple days for community building/expectations/routines. I just signed up for an awesome (I Hope) classroom Library app, called Classroom Organization by Booksource, with which I can scan all the ISBN barcodes with my phone. The books are automatically entered into an online database in my account of my library. Students can access the app and check out/return books and add reviews when they have done so. Hoping to utilize the entirety of the program, but it might just be my database for book ordering also.
Oh, and because being a brand new teacher, with two grade levels of curriculum to plan and assess, I volunteered to take on an after school club starting the end of September, which will be an Arts and Craft club meeting once a week. Excited to share my love for all things crafty (with some extra ideas modified/stolen from Pinterest.
