Happy Sunday! (I scheduled this post because I am in Sonoma. So cheers from wine country and enjoy your day!)
Did you guys know that I love Carson Dellosa? I do. I always have. I enjoy their cut outs and posters and borders.
Well, out of the clear blue sky, they contacted me. They said they would send me stuff.
I was like, “Huh?”
But they did. They actually sent me stuff.
They sent almost all of this:

Just in time for Spring!!!! So now, instead of this cold bulletin board which I used to think was super cute, but now I’m tired of it because I want to be done with winter even though I live in California:
I have this!!
I know, I know. Okay, I’ll take a bow. Holy cuteness. I love those letters — so fun! A scalloped border is also available, but lining up scallops and overlapping scallops makes my OCD intolerable so I went with the straight border. My therapist agreed and claimed that I’d had a breakthrough.
Everyone who comes in comments on how cute this board is and wants to know where I got it. I say Carson Dellosa, but I don’t tell them that CD sent it to me because my blog is a secret and they might start reading it or something if they knew.
Look at my super cute door!!! I wrote two student names on each bird because I have too many kids in my class and there is not enough room for each student to have an individual bird. We will not talk about what I’m going to do when I take these birds off and two students who do not live with one another will have to share. Because even though I have plenty of extras, I am saving them for next year.
I am using this chart for our 100 Mile Club tracking system. Or whatever you call it. Only two kids have reached 25 miles because we only run once a week at our school.
I don’t get it either.
Either way, collecting sticks on Friday mornings drives me insane anyway, so I can’t imagine doing it everysingleday.
We used the Boho stickers to write Sticker Stories in the Writing Center. My kids LOVED the new stickers and especially the letter stickers.
Um, both of these kiddos exceeded the FIVE OR LESS Sticker Permit that is the law of my classroom. Why, I oughta . . .
So that’s my new Boho Birds classroom.
It makes me so happy. Tho happy!!
I will be sad when I have to change that Boho Board for Open House.
But Open House is scheduled for the second to last week of the school year which means it will almost be summer vacation so I might not cry that long.

I LOVE the Boho birds….I got that lovely email too but have been way tooooooo stressed out with the state tests coming to even consider stripping my room and redecorating…I know, I'm a loser://// Your room looks great! That will be a fun fresh look for Open House:))

I love springy colors. I'm really tired of my winter wardrobe. I found a sale on OldNavy.com and ordered some springy dresses. Mother nature has until they arrive to get out any last winter she has in her….then it's time to pack it up and show me some spring. 🙂
I love that your blog is your little secret. It must be hard since it becomes a part of your life and the growing popularity of Pinterest and reading teacher blogs. I have one coworker who reads mine but I'd prefer if word didn't get out.
Thanks for sharing the goodies. I'm doing my classroom order for next year and I may have to check this out.

You crack me up! I keep my blog a secret, too, but it only has a few followers so it's easier…I can't believe none of your coworkers know about yours. Anyways, super cute birds. I love the colors!

Well those are just the cutest ever! Spring has sprung!
I LOVE the boho birds and will have to get them to enhance my bird theme some! I also do not like using an incentive chart. I use it for their sight words and each week I put up stickers. I think it's annoying but they love it and I want them to be proud of their progress. I also try to keep my blog secret but most of my team knows now. I share my stuff with them and tell them where I find things on blogs. I don't want to announce to the school though that I blog. My parents read my blog though and from time to time they'll comment inappropriate stuff like "hey sweetie give me a call love your post!" Really…kinda embarrassing! Okay this is getting long love your blog and your new look in your room!

I wish it felt like spring here in Toronto! Actually while I'm wishing for things I'd also like to wish I was the one in wine country.
Hope you're enjoying your trip!

PS, I created a my very own blog! I have no clue what I'm doing but now I can keep you posted on my journey to becoming a teacher without drowning you in e-mails!
Oh dear, you have sold me on that Boho Birds set! I must have it! We have vaulted ceilings in our classroom, and the tall space above my cabinets is almost totally blank–I think these would be so cute up there! My room is almost all done in black, teal, and lime green (like my blog), but I think this would tie in enough…maybe?! Agh! OCD, be gone! Anywho, super cute. And I love your sticker story writing activity!! Do you have that in your store/did you create it yourself?? My kids would LOVE THAT.
P.S. Dude. You have almost 2,500 followers! Holy cannoli, girl!
