This week I have answered a challenge issued by Third in Hollywood, Teach, Create, Motivate,  Sparkling in Second Grade, and Peppy Zesty Teacheria to makeover my store, my blog and my products!

When I first started at Teacherspayteachers, I was unsure and nervous about how my work would be seen by other teachers.  I didn’t have a lot of money for graphics and fonts so I made do with what I had.  Well, with two years under my belt, I knew it was time to ramp up my products and hopefully catch the eyes of more teachers looking for products and activities.  This challenge has come at the perfect time…I have retired from public school teaching and moved to an independent school.  I am revamping my teaching, activities and lessons, so why not do the same to my Teacherpayteacher store also?

Here’s my response to the first challenge:  “My End of Year Memory Book” was first made as a quick idea for my students, but as often happens with things done quickly, the end result was not a true example of what my products were about.  I have changed my graphics and added more pages to my book.  Students can now write memories about their resource/specials classes and as with yearbooks, can choose their smartest, funniest, and tallest classmates to mention just a few of the memories.    Take a look….if you like what you see, here is the link to my store…http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Susan-Mescall.
