Welcome! My name is Amber and I am a 5th grade teacher in beautiful Idaho. As a teacher, I love to let my creative juices flow in order to create a fun and engaging environment for my students. In my classroom I work to teach my students to find the joy of learning, while building the necessary skills for success now and in the future. I like to teach students how to organize their school work, produce high quality work, and focus on having a growth mindset throughout their day.
In this blog I hope to create a space for teachers to find inspiration that enables them to enhance their lessons, classrooms, and lives. Teaching is hard work and adding a little color to our lives helps us get through the tough days and enjoy the amazing ones. As a third-year teacher, I know all too well the ups and downs of teaching as I continue to discover my personal teaching style. I found many teaching blogs (see my blog roll on the side!) to be a lifeline as I lesson planned, decorated my classroom, or worked to discover the perfect classroom management tool.
