Well friends I am finally back and I am so excited to share that I have my first ever teaching job. I will be teaching 1st grade at the school where I went to elementary school and also the school where I became Ms. Cara. I am so excited to start this adventure. This is truly my dream job!!  If you have any first grade tips I will be happy to hear them. I also finally graduated college and I am so happy and proud!

For the past few weeks I have just been working in my room and finishing up my teacher test. I have one more and I will feel very happy when they are finally over. My classroom is a large mess right now and I can not wait to share pictures with you when it is all finished.

For the past few days I have seen so many people posting about getting early copies of The Marvels by Brian Selznick (September 15) and Crenshaw by Katherine Applegate ( September 22) . I am so jealous of the people with these copies and I can not wait to get my hands on these books. 

Happy Reading Friends :)

Ms. Cara
