School Bag Linky Party

It's late, but I wanted to join Abby's linky party.  I've been drooling over all the cute 31 bags, but here is my functional {not so cute} bag.

I carry a backpack to and from school.  When it's snowy and icy 6 months of the year the trek from the parking lot to my classroom can be dangerous and I don't want to lose anything if I slip and fall {which happens more often than I'd like to admit}.  The blue bag next to it is my purse, it's a Keen bag - I love it!  I can sling it across my body and keep my hands free.

 Now for what's in my bag.  I had church tonight so I didn't bring too much home with me.  My MacBook goes to and from school with me everyday.  Most of my school stuff is on there.  I'm working on my Lesson Plans for next week {also on my Mac} so I brought home my manual for our next Theme in HM {It's my favorite Theme - Colors!!!}.

I made a quick stop at Wal*Mart tonight to pick up Velcro {I ran out}  and Letter Beads {for a new Workstation Activity}.  My 6 Traits book, stickers and my favorite Post-Its. 

I also have this pencil pouch.  I keep Flair pens, Highlighters, Pencils, Sharpies and Post-It flags in it {you never know when you may need them}. 

 I also brought home my Data Notebook so I could input data into the spreadsheets on my MacBook. {I had to cover up my name and school}.
