Trying something to help Bryce overcome his night fears. It's tough when your body remembers
being scared and abandoned at night, but with time, I am hoping that he will feel safe and get the rest his body (and mine!) need every night.

Moving On Up...
So after the last 5 years in kindergarten, I decided it was time to move on... well, just to first grade. I hate moving classrooms, but the thought of looping with most of my students is very exciting. I have missed multiage and looping, so this will give me a chance to have another year with the students I already know so well. Exciting and hopefully a smoother and less exhausting beginning than meeting new kinders. I have enough drama when I get home these days!

Big Boy Rooms!
With the start of summer, came summer house projects. The first was to move the boys into their own rooms. I wanted them painted (and after a minute of thinking about doing it myself), I called my old painter Jose. The stipend for being a USC Master teacher helped fund the project! I learned from Vanessa (who let her son AJ choose any color for his room), that it might be better if I let Daniel chose the color, but I get to choose the shade! Bryce agreed to the same color, so I had both rooms painted the same shade of blue. Now to get them to actually sleep in their rooms!
Daniel's Room
My favorite bed frame from IKEA
The TV was already hooked up for Popo, so
Daniel got lucky! TV's in bedrooms, not a good idea!
Bryce's bookcase
Work/play space
It's the Mickey wall!
An art piece for the wall.
