Getting Ready for School and Some Giveaway Shout Outs!

I'm getting ready for my first day back at school and by getting ready I mean that I am blog-stalking. My lesson plans aren't ready yet, student work that I had planned to grade is not graded, and I am just on my computer working on some digraph/blend activities that I plan to share soon. I am excited to blog and share some funny stories (aren't little kids hilarious?).

I miss my little guys and I can just hear them scream my name, "Mrs. Matadamas!". Yeah, it is pretty much a tongue twister at first even though Spanish is their first language. I love my last name- well, my husband's last name but now it is mine, too! It is sooo unique and it means something pretty cool (google it if you don't know Spanish lol).

I plan to re-organize my room, get rid of my teacher desk {gasp}, and file all my wonderful resources that I grabbed these past 2 weeks! Pictures to come!

Now, on to some awesome giveaways:
