Outfits I wore the first week of school 📚✏️🚌📓
Some are things I already had and new ones that I definitely will be keeping to wear again and again 🤭 dressing up every day makes me happy and excited to start the day!
On the other shoes… I think I have a shopping problem 😅

First day of school ✨📚 We spent the day getting to know each other, learning all about our classroom, and practicing LOTS of procedures. But most importantly, we started building our class family and creating the kind of classroom community where everyone feels seen, valued, and like they belong. 💛 A busy first day, but such a special one!

Things I’ve prepped for the first week of school ✏️📚
I did a little bit all week because the list is looooong!
Because future me deserves to walk into that first week feeling a little more prepared and a lot less overwhelmed 😂
Sharing the things I’ve actually prepped ahead of time to make those first few days run smoother!
What are you prepping before the first bell rings? 👀
She’s baaaack! Teachers first day back after summer break ☀️here we go!
Planner setup for the new school year is officially here! 🤍✨
I switched to the weekly layout this year instead of the subject planner because my team and I do all of our lesson planning in a shared document now, and it just makes more sense for how I actually use my planner.
I also had to add the clear pocket because I’m always saving little notes and papers. 😂 And the monthly coloring pages? Still one of my favorite little details.
Can’t wait to put this beauty to work this school year! 🍎 Thanks, , for another planner I know I’m going to love.

Summer vibes spent at Negombo Thermal Baths in Ischia 🌞💖🌊🫶🏽
+ we celebrated Father’s Day with some self-care because he does so much for our 4 kids! This dad deserves more days like this 🤭 I hope all the dads on this little corner of the internet had an amazing day!
A few days in Calabria was exactly what we needed 🤍☀️🌊
Beach days, boat trips and lots of quality family time as a teacher on summer break 🏖️🚤✨ Nothing beats slowing down and making memories together.
I’ll never get tired of visiting Tropea 🤍 Walking around those beautiful streets, taking in the breathtaking views and, of course, eating the most incredible food 🍝🍋🌅 Everything is just perfection every single time.
Already looking forward to our next beach trip 🇮🇹❤️
