5 Million...What?!

It's hard to believe that Classroom Freebies has reached 5 million page views in a little over a year, but it's happened.  Classroom Freebies is an amazing resource for free stuff to help enhance your kiddos classroom experience.  Bloggers from all over share their resources here and it's obvious that readers love what they see.

So who are the bloggers who share their items? Well, I'm one of them.  My name is Jo and I am a School Library Media Specialist who has been in education for 15 years.  

I've taught preschool through fifth grade in various capacities and I am using my experiences to help create some great lessons to share for you on both my website, A Teacher's Bag of Tricks, as well as my SLMS blog, The Book Bug. 

In addition to being a School Library Media Specialist, I am also a wife and a mother to two wonderful little boys, ages 10 and 3.  They are my joy.

In my freetime, which is usually in the wee hours of the morning, I enjoy reading, journaling, scrapbooking, sewing and surfing the net for new ideas.  I have about 300 blogs in my Google Reader that I scroll through on a regular basis and post thing I find interesiting to the Facebook fan pages of my website and blog.  It is such a amazing feeling to be able to reach students I've never even met through sharing resources I have come across as well as created through Classroom Freebies.  I hope that you have enjoyed the items I have posted.  I certainly plan on sharing many more.

One of my favorite items posted by another CF's contributor was this 8 Reading Strategy Posters freebie from Rachel Lynette. Rachel always creates fantastic resources and I love the way her items have a consistent design.  Check out Rachel's posters and don't forget to leave a comment to let her know what you think of her freebie. She would LOVE to hear from you!

Thanks for using Classroom Freebies for your teaching needs.
