How much are you dreading April Fools tomorrow...
I AM or are you one of those peeps that likes it...
you sicko...
I mean how many times can you take a 4th grader saying
YOUR SHOE IS UNTIED... APRIL FOOLS... no really if I had a dollar every time I have heard that one...
I would be on my own private island...
I am one of those teachers that enjoys the fact that St. Patrick's Day falls on the weekend...
sooooo just the thought of all those UBER CORNY NOT FUNNY TO ME April Fools
gets me all kinds of maybe I should call in sick...
but I can't or I won't and so I will trudge through those silly
OK really STUPID jokes and smile
and because I don't want to talk about that anymore....
we will
get this Party Started...
A BIG THANKS GOES TO OUR SPONSOR...
she is a RIOT...
a fellow TEXAN with a passion for life, fashion, and fun...
fingers crossed we will meet this summer TOO!!!
I wish I was at Crystal's school because Bub starts Kinder soon and our kinder teachers
are retiring and that gets me all kinds of stressed
and I am POSITIVE Crystal is AH-Mazing
I mean look at her top 3
#1 ELA Super Heroes...

Meet Nelly Noun, Patty Pronoun, Abe Adjective, Sequencing Sally, Syllable Sam, and Victor Verb...our ELA SUPER HEROES!! This unit teaches you how to introduce nouns, adjectives, pronouns, verbs, syllables, and sequencing! She has included the Common Core standards and TEKS that this unit meets.

ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY FOUR PAGES
HOLY COW!!!!
AND #3 March and April Early Finishers Tub
Now when students finish early, there are
activities ready to go for them and peace can be maintained while others
are still working. In the set, there is a guide as to how she sets up the tub and introductions for the activities. She keeps about a dozen containers
and folders in her tub for each month. These are activities that
can be done over and over,
interdependently or with a partner, and quietly. Most importantly,
learning has continued after they have finished their current
assignments.

Girl you make me laugh out loud! Ugh- Stupid Staar. As a former 4th grade writing teacher I will be saying ALL kinds of prayers for you and your kiddos- although I'm sure they will kick boo-tay! If we lived closer I would totally bring you a bottle of wine for each night....cuz that's the way I roll.....maybe I'll just drink a bottle each night and send you pics- that's kind of the same right? LOVE YA!
ReplyDeleteRowdy in First Grade
LOVE YOU GIRL!!! and sending me pics is good!!!

Don't even get my started on the Cadburry Eggs! I threatened my husband with bodily harm if I did not find those yummies in my basket this morning....I got 10. I was happy. Have you ever had the chocolate filled ones? They taste just like a truffle...excuse me as I wipe drool off my keyboard.:)

ReplyDeleteI too adore Cadbury easter eggs- and luckily I scoffed myself silly all weekend because I've now promised a friend of mine I won't eat any chocolate or sweets until her baby arrives in June because she's not allowed to so I'm sharing her pain haha!
