300 (Almost) Giveaway

Can you believe that I am almost at 300 followers?  I can't wait any longer, so I'm starting my giveaway before I reach 300.  I wanted something to show you all how much I appreciate your support, comments, and blogs, so I'm giving away 2 gift cards:  $30.00 for Teachers Pay Teachers and $30.00 for Target.  I decided on 30 because it was close to 300 (and I couldn't do $300...so this is the next best thing)!


Thanks to JW Illustrations for the frame, Melonheadz for the adorable clip art, Painting Fairy for the background paper, and me for the font!

My giveaway starts on Sunday, March 24th at 12:00 a.m. and ends on Sunday, March 31st.

Hope you win! Good Luck!

    Oh Tracey! Congrats on sneaking up on 300 followers! Best thing about blogging is meeting other teachers that I would never have had the chance to meet without blogging.

    The best thing about blogging is springboarding ideas. I see someone in a 1st grade classroom do something and I might love it...but I've got to figure out how I can take the idea and make it 3rd grade appropriate.
