Better Late Than Never!

July 22, 2012 by Sarah Plum(itallo) 9 Comments

I  finally finished putting together my planner pack for 2012-2013! This project started out as just a personal project, but then I realized that it might be useful to other teachers, and so I kept going!

While I love my rainbow theme, I also know that it’s a bit ink heavy — which is why I ended up doing a blackline version of the planner pack to be printed on bright paper (this is what delayed it a bit).


I’ve already printed it out and set it up in my organizer for the year, and I am so so pleased with it! I’m a wee-bit of a post-it note hoarder, so this agenda (which is laminated for durability) is going to be very useful for me this year!

I’ve already started adding things to my August calendar because August is less than two weeks away! I cannot believe how quickly this summer has gone by, and really need to kick it into high gear because my to-do list keeps growing! I have my orientation on the second of August, and then my first day of new teacher orientation is August 22nd. (I just realized that’s a month from today. Wow.)
Despite how overwhelming my to-do list is, I couldn’t be more excited to see everything coming together. I worked so hard for so long to make this (my own classroom) a reality, that the late nights and sleepy eyes when my little guy is calling “Mommmmmmmmmmyyyyyyyy!” in the morning is just another part of this joyful process.
While I’ve listed this planner pack in my TPT store (it’s only $3.00!), it is the much-promised freebie for all of those that entered my giveaway! I’m going to go-through the Rafflecopter entries tonight and tomorrow and e-mail it out in batches.  Check your e-mail if you entered the giveaway — I have officially sent them all out! I hope that it will be useful to those of you that entered!

    Gorgeous! I love both versions. I am tempted to print out the blackline version just so I have an excuse to color during the school year! (Don't you find it relaxing?)

    Thanks,

    I am so excited for you and I think I am as excited as you are about the upcoming year 🙂 (and I have been teaching for 18 years total.) It is so much fun to receive all of these great ideas from other teachers and put them to practice in your own classroom. The beginning of the year always makes me feel like a kid again. I love it. Thanks so much for the freebie.
