Jen {The Teacher's Cauldron}

 Hi everyone!

I'm Jen.

I have been super excited to "meet" all the wonderful authors of this fabulous new blog! Most of these bloggers I have been stalking ever since I started in this blog-iverse. Let me just say, that I am so honored to be apart of something so wonderful with some of the most wonderful ladies! So, let me introduce myself.

I am getting ready to start my 11th year of teaching! ACK! I know. It's crazy. I have worked in a Title I school for all of my years. I have my masters degree in Elementary Reading and I'm a National Board Certified Teacher in Middle Childhood, General. (I look good on paper, don't I? ha!) I have been blogging for almost 2 years, and I took the plunge into creating and sharing in February of last year. Blog stalking, blogging, and creating as completely changed my teaching ways!! I get more and more excited about it each year! Let's see. I'm married to a firefighter (yes, I know...poor teacher and firefighter! haha!), our 5 year anniversary is this October, and we have two BEAUTIFUL girls (of course they're beautiful, right!?), ages "almost" 4 and  1 1/2 years old. 

I live in Florida, and I love the beach! I am there as often as I can be, and if I can't, then we try to go to the pool in our neighborhood! I love trying new things, and seeking out of the norm activities to do, like skydiving, blueberry picking, you know...random things. When you hang out with me, here's hoping you don't mind getting your picture taken, because I love taking pictures....of everything! Blogging and Instagram don't help that much either! Cooking and baking are another hobby of mine. I also love to workout. I am "kind of" big into eating healthy, living healthy, and exercising. Right now I am actually doing a T25 Challenge. I started it 2 weeks ago. I actually started a personal blog, because I wanted to document all of this, and my children growing up and our travels. If you want to follow my personal blog, feel free to come on over and check it out!  Oh, and here's the MOST important detail about me.... IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!!! Yes, it's true. Today's my birthday. I'm just a little excited about it. I love birthdays! Last year, for my 30th, I went to the Keys with my family and turned 30 in Key West. That was super fun!! Now, for what you're here for! Here are some reward cards I made. You can use them in so many ways! I have a few different versions for the behavior and then a reading card. You can do them weekly, or use them until all 10 are punched out on the cards. It's up to you!

Hope you like it!

Also, make sure you head over to my blog today, since it's my birthday! I have a special surprise for you over there!!! (shhh...it's a giveaway!)
