Friday! Wooo!--Weekly Fave Pins

I've been a little MIA this week in the bloggy world.  SCM is my excuse.  SCM stands for Safe Crisis Management, so if you gotta problem with it...you're goin' down!! :)  Just kidding of course! I have been trained this week though in restraint and de-escalation strategies.  Two things have come out of this training; one I'm certified in SCM, two my leg muscles are killin'!  Whew! I haven't work them out enough this summer obviously!

So, even though I have spent several hours four days this week in training, I have had time for Pinterest!  I always got time for that! ;)

1.  I think this Parts of a Friend poster is just adorable!

2.  This is a great visual to help me remember what the functions of behavior could be in an acting out student.  It also helps me explain function of behavior to other people that don't exactly speak special ed. lingo

3.  On Monday, I get to get into my new classroom!  I am so excited! I am about to burn up my classroom decor Pinterest board!  This is one of my favorites for the door decoration.

4.  This Sensory Tree would be such a cool idea for the classroom!

5.  I am so excited about my new school and what all this experience has yet to bring.  I am thankful that God has used me in different places and different schools for His purpose and now I will be going somewhere brand new and will be able to use what I've learned over the years to grow more there.  I feel so blessed that God has continued to put me on the right path!

Five for Friday Break & My Fave Pins

I normally link up with Five for Friday every week, but she has taken a little break so Cara from The First Grade Parade has taken over the Friday link up to share your favorite pins from the week.

Well, I will share my pins, but I couldn't resist sharing with you some of my highlights from this week.

My sister came to town this week and spent a few days. We did a little shopping and bought matching sweatshirts. Yeah, I know it is July and it is hot outside, but they were on clearance and couldn't be passed up! BBN!! Go Cats!

Then we went to get some Chinese. Chloe made a little dessert art. So talented! :)

And finally, I made this picture frame for one of my best friends.  She is having a baby in February and is doing the baby room is sock monkeys. The paper is from Hobby Lobby (picked that up while shopping with my sister). I got to give her the frame on Thursday when she came over for a little BFF time!  We hung put at the antique mall and I helped her convince herself of all of the cool thins she needed for the new baby's room!  She really racked up!

Now for my favorite pins of the week...

I love these Subway Art signs and rules for the classroom. I've already purchased and downloaded these cuties. I'm anxious to get them in my classroom!

We are headed to Disney World for fall break and I know I want some way to document our trip. I love to scrapbook, but it takes so much time. I have found several ideas for Smash books. I think that is the way to go for documenting our trip.

I think this is a great idea for sensory input and would be simple to make and store for the classroom. I'm on the lookout for some cheap marbles!

How cute is this cotton ball holder!? Just adorable! Gotta have one! :)
