I'll be in my own classroom in roughly two years and already I'm searching for the best deals and most efficient items to have in my classroom. It's an exciting time but boy can it be expensive. After doing some research, here are some of my favorite finds.

1. AmazonBasics Laminator 

I purchased this during my junior year when I had an assignment to made a PECS book. Not only is the $21.99 price very appealing, but the machine is VERY easy to use. I ordered the laminating pouches with the machine and they were wonderful too!

2. Praxis II Exam Secrets Study Book 

Sure, you can order practice materials through the Praxis website when you sign up for your test, but I found this gem and it's a keeper. The book goes in depth on all the material you need to know for the test as well as practice materials.

3. Fidget Chair Bands

While this item is sort of subjective and depends on your class, may cause more disruption than ease, for the students that need it the price is nice and so is the convenience.

4. Classroom Caddies

A classroom I subbed in had these for all the student's tables and I had an "ah-ha" moment. These caddies make it so easy to have anything the students may need during seatwork time. It also makes it easy to keep track of inventory.

5. Chalktastic Chalk

My middle school CT raved about these! They only erase with wet paper towels (so water) which is super convenient.

6. Dry Erase Pockets 

These are awesome tools for test prep or practice materials. By using these you're not going through copious copies.

I can't wait to make my future classroom my own. By doing some research ahead of time, I'm hoping I'll find the best deals and pieces to make the room home.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
