A-Z Of Teacher Me {My 1st Ever Linky)

I love any good linky party! It's a great chance to meet new bloggers and learn a thing or two in the process. I thought it would be so much fun to host my first ever linky party and get to know you all at the same time.

I saw a post on A-Z of Me by a few bloggers recently and I loved the idea of it! However, I thought I would change it up a bit for the teacher bloggers. Everything on the list relates to teaching in some way. I hope you have fun linking up!

Simple Linky Rules: 
1. Add the A-Z of Teacher Me image linking back to this post.
2. Add my blog button linking back to my blog.
3. Follow Farley's rule of 3 to share the love. 
(Comment on the 2 linked up before and the 1 after)
4. Share as little or as much as you like!
5. Have fun and meet new friends!

E: Essential To Start Day: A shower. I cannot fully function without one.

My favorite font that I ever made is
It is perfect for Chinese New Year and just so unique.
My favorite font of another blogger is 
by Nicole at Rowdy in Room 300
G: Game: I love going on an Alphabet Scavenger hunt around the classroom.
H: Holiday: Christmas! I am always so happy when Christmas is in the air. Did you know there is a town called Santa Claus, Indiana where Christmas is celebrated every day of the year? I think I need to move there!
I: Ice Cream: Mint marble fudge with extra hot fudge. Chocolate-yum!
J: Jewelry Piece: I don't personally wear jewelry but I enjoy making necklaces, and rings myself!
K: Kid-ism: While reading a book about owls...
Me: "Are you a night owl?"
Student: "No, but sometimes I snore like an owl...honk-hoooooot, honk-hoooooot"
L: Location To Travel: I love the mountains of Maine. It's beautiful there!
M: Management Technique: Whole brain teaching! It's such a powerful resource!
N: Nail Polish: I have so much nail polish it's so hard to pick a favorite!
If I had to choose, I really love Milani Nail Laquer 3D holographic fx.
It's amazing how beautiful this nail polish looks in the light.
O: Open House Idea: I did this in elementary school and it was a hit! 
Yearn to Learn has a great post filled with many more Open House ideas! 
P: Pinterest Find: I love Pinterest! You can find me here. I am in love with this adorable anchor chart by Amy from Step Into 2nd Grade. I know the boys especially will love it!
Q: Quote: Love this Etsy sign! 
R: Read-Aloud: This is a tough one! There are so many amazing books to read aloud! However, I think reading Skippyjon Jones is so much fun to read to children. They get a kick out of the accent! 
S: School Supply: The beautiful smelling box of new pointy Crayola crayons.
T: TPT/TN Product: Is it even fair to pick on this Superbowl sale weekend? Aren't everyone's carts filled to the brim? However, I just love these reward coupons! They are perfect! 
U: Un-Official Hobby: Pinterest crafting. I made at least one craft a week during the summer. How would I survive without Pinterest!
V: Video Brain Break: Any Just Dance for Kids video.
W: Way To Spend A Day Off: Relaxing in my PJ's is like Heaven!
X: X-tra Special Blogs You : Is there a blog that I don't like? I follow so many it's hard to narrow it down! Here are a few I especially love! 
 
Y: Yummy Dessert: Angel food cake. I could eat an entire cake in one sitting. It is just so light and fluffy and delicious!
Z: Zoo Animal: When I was little it was a flamingo but now it's a monkey.

I had so much fun with this! I hope you have just as much fun too! I will pick 1 random winner from the people who link up to win a $10 Starbucks gift card. Hurry and link up today! Enjoy!
