Working on my first unit :)

Hi again! Hope you're counting down to Thanksgiving break, I know I am (I'm going to Florida!). I've been getting started on my first unit, a lemonade stand unit that is one full week of all subjects. Here's the preview:
What do you think? I'm excited for this! Plus yellow is my favorite color... if you couldn't tell.

In other news, here's how I'm organizing my lesson plans and stuff (is there a better word for it?):

It's a folder in my Documents folder. I might separate into more folders, but for the time being, here is where it stands. Now let's look at the folder called "Lemonade Stand".

 Pretty bare for now. I'll have individual folders for the days, if it's a theme week. Moving on to Monday...
Yup, this is a folder! I might do a tutorial on changing your folder backgrounds eventually. As you can see, everything is separated into subject, and is easily navigated. I'm a pretty excitable person, so I already have a lot done for Monday. And the current school year isn't even halfway over!

News and random musings:
1. I added a Follow button...
2. ...And subsequently got my first follower. Yay!
3. I'm thinking of creating a TpT store. But since I'm inexperienced, I'd have all my lessons be free and encourage feedback from teachers to how it would go with 2nd graders. I don't need the money that much anyway.
4. I updated my blog background. The old one was glitchy.
5. I'd be happy for any feedback!
