Happy Manic Monday New Years Eve!

Happy New Years Eve! My big new years resolution is to take some time to relax this year! I've felt so burnt out lately. While my class is super adorable, it's a HUGE challenge teaching 3 grades at once all day. Add in the fact that it's SPED, you can imagine how stressful the days can be, then I bring home more work at night.

Starting now, I'm trying to force myself to just relax a bit! I already finished my book club book a whopping 3 weeks early! This is a record. I'm usually finishing the book a day or two before our monthly get-together. Book Club is one of my "grown up" time activities that gets my mind off my class. Although most of us are teachers, so sometimes we stray back to school talk...oops!

Since I've been trying to relax this holiday break, I've keep my TPT creations to a minimum. I haven't even looked at my curriculum and I completely forgot my lesson plan book at school. So... I have no idea what I should be creating for my class right now! In the mean time, I did finish both my Winter and Valentine ABC Matching. Both are FREE in my TPT store (click the pics) and Google Doc.

Winter ABC Matching

Have I mentioned how much I've NEEDED this winter break?! I have taken a full week to do nothing but shopping, spending time with family, and finally getting healthy again (or really close to it!). I haven't even looked at a single blog until today! I've become a total blog stalker this year, but I was just plain fried by the time this winter break came along. I'm finally starting to feel refreshed! It's amazing what sleep, tea, and super strength antibiotics can do!

In honor of my new found relaxation (and extreme shopping with my gift cards!) I'm throwing an end of the year sale. Everything in my TPT store is 20% off until New Years! Enjoy! Click here to go to my TPT store!

I also created a freebie! This was a request that I wanted to fulfill a month ago, but then I got super sick and couldn't. So it's better late than never. I'll also be making a February themed version of this soon! I love filling requests, so let me know if there's more you'd like to see in my store. I also think I'll try to make a few more emergent reader activity pack since my Gingerbread one was such a hit. Let me know if you'd like to see a specific theme or set of sight words included in the next one!
