0 Beginning of the Year Team Building Updates!

How has your summer vacation been going? Mine has been both relaxing and busy at the same time. I have been working like a busy bee planning for my mid-August nuptials! If you follow me on Instagram, then you're definitely up to date on all things wedding!

I've also been making more of an effort to unplug on the weekends and spend time with family and friends. The picture below is my fiancé and I on his birthday. I surprised him with a trip to Northern Michigan to tour all of the wineries. It was such a great weekend!

I also promised myself (and my amazing blog readers) that I would have my HUGE 5th Grade Math and English Language Arts Daily Morning Work pack out before the beginning of the year. I am working so hard every single day to keep that promise! It has taken on a life of its own and is even more awesome than I originally anticipated. 

Stay tuned for more news on the release date! 

Last, I wanted to let you know that I've given my Beginning of the Year Team Building pack a huge facelift! Click HERE to check it out! 

I have added new games and activities, clarified the directions to make them easier for you, and I've added printables to help you easily implement these games and activities in your own classrooms! Below is a quick look at just SOME of the additions/printables I've added. Click HERE to check out the preview to see more of the updates! 

Starting your year off on the right foot is crucial. Building a community of learners is one of the first things I tackle at the start of the new school year! You want your students to feel welcomed and safe in your classroom.
