Happy Tuesday…and by that I mean at least it’s not Monday. It started getting dark yesterday at 4:30. 4:30!? What the heck. I was singing the extra hour daylight savings time praises on Sunday. Now, I am not sure that extra hour was worth it.
Thinking that I was so much more productive with that extra hour, I may need a stronger eye prescription from staring at my computer all weekend. Not only did I whip up the Stone Soup unit, but I also finished my November unit. I think the extra hour gave me super powers?
We started using the literacy and math stations yesterday. I haven’t started on any of the Thanksgiving activities because we are doing all of our Stone Soup business this week. It will come later. I am most excited about their turkeys that will come back disguised after we read Turkey Trouble. It’s such a cute book and I have had some funny turkeys come back. This one was hilarious. I am still not quite sure how I feel about being dressed as a turkey.
One of my students dressed their turkey as me…boots and all. There are two different turkey options. I let them hide their turkeys anywhere they want in the room. I have had some interesting turkeys return. Darth Vader and Angry Birds have been a favorite in the past.
You all know me. As soon as I make a new unit, I want to give one away. However, today I have more than just my new November unit to give away. There is a new clip art friend out there that contacted me about giving away some of her clip art and she wants to give away 15 sets! I didn’t accidentally type a 5 after the 1…she really did say fifteen sets. Look at how fabulously adorable it all is!
I want it all. I already have visions of the units I could create with all of these awesome graphics. We would both love to give away our products! Stone Soup has already been won, but there are two fabulous prizes you can win! Enter to win and we will pick a winner on Friday!
