What's up with Bloglovin?! {you need to know}

You've probably seen a lot of chatter about Bloglovin' lately.  I have to admit - even as a blogger myself! - I didn't give it much thought.  Which was a mistake!

In a nutshell, Google Reader is disappearing on July 1st.  So if you use it to find out which of your favorite blogs has been updated, it's about to go bye-bye.  That wasn't a super big deal to me either because I often look at my own sidebar to see who's updated the most recently.  {over there on the right under my button where it says "Teachspiration"}  Again...my bad.

What it also means is that I am losing track of my loyal followers!  Luckily, there is an easy way for you to stay updated with me & my glamourific teaching.  And there's an incentive for everyone who choses to do so.  ;)

It's super easy.  Go to Bloglovin.com and create an account.  Or just click on this little button below {which will be made cuter later} because we need to get this started, people!

Follow on Bloglovin

Everyone who clicks over to follow me before Google Reader goes away will be entered to win any item of your choosing from my TeachersPayTeachers store!  I will choose the winner Monday, July 1st.  Just leave a comment below to let me know that you've clicked that button and are following me at Bloglovin.

If you don't like change and aren't interested in signing up for anything else, remember you can always stay in the know with new posts by following my Facebook page.  I do recommend Bloglovin, though.  A major perk I've already noticed: you can categorize the blogs you follow!!  I now have a Kindergarten group, a 1st grade group, a 2nd grade group...you get the idea...which will make finding posts much easier!  {you can also go into the settings and turn off all email notifications}

See you at Bloglovin!
