Are you all teaching the Common Core this year? We are implementing the literacy core and I am N-E-R-V-O-U-S!! I feel like a first year teacher all over again!! Don't get me wrong, I'm excited for the new core--I think it will be great! I just don't feel as 'put together' as I would like. Luckily I have an amazing 1st grade team and I have all of these wonderful teacher blogs to turn to for some brilliant ideas and inspiration! :)

My hubby and I were set up on a date...and you can guess the rest of the story! :)
