Christmas in July Starts Today!

Ready. Set. Shop!!! I kind of feel like it’s the morning after Thanksgiving and I need to rush TpT and buy everything that is on sale today. I may or may not have a shopping problem 🙂 Here is my schedule of what will be on sale each day until the 26th. That way, you […]

Let’s Talk About Books! {linky and freebie all in one}

That might just be about my most favorite kind of chat. I am a bit Amazon obsessed. If I see a book that looks good or I need one for a lesson, I just click it and it magically appears at my door two days later. Prime is going to be the demise of my […]

Searchin’ for Seashells {Freebie}

Are you wondering if I fell off the face of the blogging earth? Yeah, me too. Today was our last day. It was bittersweet for sure. I loved my sweet little class this year. The last day always sneaks up on me. We all start the count down right after Spring Break and then all […]

Breathe Life in to Literacy with Oliver Jeffers

When you have a book that can make a whole group of five and six year olds belly laugh, you know you have a gem. That was our literacy block today when we were reading “The Incredible Book Eating Boy” and “Stuck”. The second story got even more laughs because of how outrageous it is. […]

The Very Hungry Kindergartener {or First Grader}

We used to do “The Very Hungry Kindergartener” booklet, but I thought that we could make it a little more hands-on. I wanted them to put the months in order, follow multi-step directions and flex their stamina muscles. […]

Peek at My Week with a Giveaway

Happy four more Mondays to me! I can’t believe that this week is May! Holy moly. How did that happen? This week, we are going to be studying about insects, going on a Field Trip to see Lyle, Lyle Crocodile and managing to squeeze in some Eric Carle. I feel like I have so much […]

Kindergarten Wins {Earth Day Things}

Seriously. I don’t even know how to begin to tell you how tired I am right now. That big idea “They should be more tired than you at the end of the day” is a load of grits. I didn’t see any five year olds mixing together four boxes of pudding and making dirt today. […]

Plants and Earth Day {freebie}

Sorry about the no post for however many days it’s been. A 3 day weekend just really does wonders for the soul. I finished a unit, went to yoga, finally watched Frozen, volunteered in the nursery AND attended church {that was a first..both never happens}, went to lunch with my family {twice…holla} and got all […]
