Welcome!

Hello. :)  

Welcome to the newly designed and refreshed Classroom Cupcakes blog!  I am grateful to my hubby for creating this adorable blog and putting up with my nitpicking over little details.  To kick of the *new* Classroom Cupcakes I am having a giveaway where 5 of you can win any item from my TpT store!  Keep reading for more details. :)

I've tried blogging before.  I've always had problems keeping up with it.  However, now that I'm in my 6th year of teaching {6 years!!! Where did the time go?!} I feel I have better time management and would love to blog more!  My goal is to share what I'm doing in my classroom to help my littles learn and grow, and listen what you all have to say and share as well!  I love collaborating with others and piggy backing ideas to create amazing lessons.

Since it's summer, I decided I would take part in an online professional development offered through my district.  Most of it was straight forward but there were plenty of videos from The Teaching Channel integrated into the PD that I found insightful and I don't know about you but I love to see lessons from other classrooms.  I am including a few of my favorites.  Take some time and watch them. :)

I am so happy you took the time to visit my blog!  Here is the information for the giveaway.  There are three requirements: visit my Facebook page{and hopefully click that little 'like' button!}, follow my blog, and leave a comment that tells me what you are most excited about for the upcoming school year!

I am most excited to meet eighteen new smiling faces and do my darndest to mold them into young critical thinkers!
