This is my first official week of summer break, and I am beyond excited to finally delete all my alarms and sleep in for a change.

Of course, sleeping in for me means I’m still up between 6 a.m. – 7 a.m., but I’ll take it.

So what have I done so far?

I’ve added 3 new resources to my TpT store, started an Instagram account and this blog, and obsessed over my just-released state test scores.

Oh, and yesterday I met up with a teacher friend of mine at Starbucks to chat about teaching and writing. More specifically rethinking how we teach writing and grammar in our upper elementary classrooms.
