Wow!!! Short weeks are a killer! This past week was one crazy week! We were off of school on Monday, Tuesday my student teacher arrived, I was observed by my principal on Wednesday, I did lots of after school shopping with my daughter for homecoming, we had a homecoming pep rally and teacher/student basketball game on Friday, AND I got a new student!!!!
During all that craziness, we did do SOME work!!!! :)
Writing about our dreams for the future!
Proving that air takes up space--as part of our study on the states of matter! I have journal pages that my students used throughout the unit, but I need to check on Print Candee's TOU regarding freebies. I'll post them tomorrow if I can.
Shopping Scoot! My kiddos L-O-V-E scoot!!!! I love that I can see who "Gets" it while they think they are just having fun!
I played the Money, Money, Money, Money song when we scooted! My teaching partner opened our adjoining door after about 5 times of hearing the music to see what in the world we were doing!!!
Here is the song:
And...my sweet daughter was selected to be on the Homecoming Court this year. I was too lazy to lug my big camera, and used my husbands little camera----and got cruddy pictures!!! Lesson learned!
And....if you made it through all of that....here's a freebie!
Well, I guess I better...
1. Do my lesson plans
2. Grade papers
3. Laminate, laminate, laminate
4. Go stir the red beans that are probably stuck to the bottom of the pot!!
