In our house, it is not just "Back to School" for the kids! After being a stay at home mom for the last three school years, I have gone back to work. I am teaching middle school science at the Christian K-12 school where I graduated from back in.... you get the point! Here are some pictures of my new classroom: This is the top of my desk. View when you walk in from the hallway Word wall for middle school science- you can print it for free here Door decor Science tools decor hanging through the lab.

My BFF sells them if you would like to have one for yourself. You can check them out here. You don't need to be a teacher! As you can see, I love the Teachers Pay Teachers website. I love that teachers share their ideas there. Many of the downloads are free or very inexpensive. It is nice to know when you do purchase one that the money is going to another teacher. A childhood friend of mine just opened her own store on Teachers Pay Teachers. Stop by and check it out!
