Makeover Madness!

Hey hey friends! I'm so very exited to be participating in this makeover madness with Teach Create Motivate and some other fabulous ladies! When I looked through my store to find a product to makeover, I found many, but had to start with one of my first product because, eww. Just yuck!




This product was so old and unloved that I had to create the entire product again. I didn't even have a saved PowerPoint file to edit it--so it's all brand new! If you'd like to check it out, you can do so here!

I hope you're enjoying your summer so far, friends. I believe I did one important task today so I can now feel accomplished. Now to relax again. :)

  1. I totally know what you mean about old docs - I wanted to do some of my older stuff but didn't have the docs anymore! Your new version looks awesome!

  2. Glad to find another 4th grade teacher! When doing this challenge myself, I was amazed when looking at some of my older products compared to my newer ones! Such a difference. Glad to have this challenge as an excuse to revamp. Your makeover looks great. The title is much more prominent and the graphics give it a little pop! Best of luck to you on next week's challenge!

  6. Your new cover looks great! I have had to remake products from scratch before, so I can definitely appreciate the time you spent. It's always a good feeling to have it done though. Nice job!

    1. Hi Mary! I just followed your blog--love me some other 4th grade teachers! It does take so much dang time to completely re-do products, but the sense of accomplishment is totally worth it! Good luck with your new room. I'm in the same boat this year, only I haven't set up a thing! ;)
