Tiger Binder Again

Really I am just using the Tiger Binder as a way to figure out how to save my Power Point slide as a pic to insert.  Also, I am using Windows Live Writer tonight to see how it works for me!

 

Ok, friends.  Here goes!  I am going to click ‘publish’ and see what happens! If I did it right, you will be able to click on the pic and go to my Google Doc!  [cross your fingers!"]

So when I taught 3rd Grade we had a "HERO Binder" that housed all of our important information.  HERO was an acronym for Having Everything Ready and Organized.  I spent all last year - my first year in first grade - trying in my mind to adapt it to first grade. 

With the new year creaping up on us, my thoughts turned back to this organizational tool.  But, it had to have a cool, new, Belton-ique name.  I wanted a "TIGER Binder"!  All day today I harassed my poor friend Stacy (...so maybe the harassment started yesterday...) for help with the acronym. 

Im not 100% sold, but with inpiration from http://theinspiredapple.blogspot.com/ and Stacy, as of today it is a "Tiger Binder" that says "Tigers R.O.C.K. - Regular Open Communication is Key".  So as soon as I figure out how to get my PowerPoint uploaded into Blogger (HELP! HELP!), you can see my beautiful work! 

Meet Hank and Hermietta!

You just have to trust me that these are our 2 newest family members!  Hank and Hermietta the Hermit Crabs!  Apparently, they like to dig and burrow and we barely see them.  They are going to be great friends with our fish, Molly and Billy Bob!
