Welcome to the site!
Welcome to Fun in Room 4B!
{Shameless plug for my GIVEAWAY} Sorry! But, here’s a freebie for enduring it. My team and I had to teach “Sequence in Research” last week. Really? How do you do that? Remember funny co-worker {the Gone With the Wind one}, she suggested that we complete research on famous African Americans for Black History month. Then,…
What brought you in? The solids and nets part of the title or the GIVEAWAY {imagine that in flashing neon lights}. Either way, I’m glad you are here. But, first, I’d like to back up a few days {and if you are interested, keep reading…otherwise…it’s OK to scroll all the way to the bottom for…
My plan tonight was to blog about my terrific horrible insane kinda productive day. Remember that field trip I spoke of yesterday- well, it didn’t happen. Nope, drove ALL THE WAY OUT THERE and it was canceled due to a tornado watch. Well, I guess that’s a safe thing to do with over 150 students…
Sounds a little like the Kool-Aid man. Is he really a man? Anyway- You are hear for the giveaway-so I won’t delay {oh, oh…how’s that for being Suessi-esk} I thought and thought and thought some more and just couldn’t come up with anything over the top creative. Bummer. So- how’s this? That’s a big,…
I’ve been pulling my hair out all year plugging away at trying to implement the Daily 5 all year. I’ve worked at creating a Reading Block that is kinda working for me now. Here’s the breakdown: We start with Daily Oral Language. Do any of you use this book? My grade level uses it to…
Scary. Truly Scary. You are lucky the picture didn’t include any spilled coffee droplets. Yes, really. I’m linking up with The Clutter Free Classroom’s “Let’s See Your Teacher Bag” Linky Party. Great bag, terribly organized. Here’s something special: My class had a half hour of clean up time on Friday because I just couldn’t take…
Did that catch your attention? Probably just to see what I’m complaining about {again}. This is the only thing I will say: Valentine’s Day at school can be CRAZY! I had all of these lofty ideas about what I wanted to do. I did some, but fussed all day long. I’m sure my kiddos were…
Oh boy! I was so excited when I got home on Friday and found that my Valentine Exchange package was in my mailbox: Even the package was cute. My gifts came from a sweet first year teacher, Kelly Pate. She’s not a blogger {yet}. This is what I found inside: She found just the right…
OK, seriously, this Hey Girl site totally makes my day a little brighter. Seriously. It rocks. Here are a few of my favorites: Who doesn’t just swoon over Ryan Gosling? Need more? I thought so. Love them. That man gets better with age. So, remember my last post when I was somewhat complaining? I’m so…
I’m skerd…that’s scared. FYI. {I can’t seem to say FYI anymore without sounding like the honey-badger dude, can you?} I just purchased this from Clutter-Free Classroom. I’m sure you know of CFC…it’s responsible for thousands of teachers getting organized {finally}. I’m kinda involved…I’m trying. Really. Anyway. I had THE WORST day ever during literacy stations. …
