Motivational Ms. Mac : Celebrating My New Blog Design with a FREEBIE

I am so excited to share my new blog design created by the fabulous, Laine Sutherland at A Little Peace of Africa. She was so great to work with and was very accommodating. Those of you that know me, know that I can never make a decision and with her help and that of my friends and family; this was the outcome! I am celebrating in every way! I hope that this can add to my business; because teaching (and fitness) is what I am passionate about and what makes me happy.

So because I am feeling so pumped; I wanted to share a FREEBIE of mine. How many of you are like "If it's free; it's for me!"? Well I am feeling totally that way every September. As teacher, we spend so much on our classroom and supplies at that start of every school year. So much money, that I don't always have the funds available to purchase items for my classroom prize box. Throughout a school year, I can easily spend between $400-$500 on items for my prize box. (Trust me, sometimes, I feel like it is worth every penny.) But now as I try to save for a house too, I totally did not want to purchase anything especially at this time of the year. As many of you feel the effects too; the last time I got paid was in June. Plus, I need a couple of months to catch up and pay those bills I racked up over the summer.

So....I decided to create these incentives that were free or would cost me little to no money. Let me tell you; they are truly a hit. I never knew how many kids actually wanted to eat lunch with me, or sit in my chair. They would save their hot tickets (my classroom incentive...stay tuned for that post) for that over a small foam football. It is a win-win situation for all of use. I hope you can find use for them too! Let me know how it works out for you?
