Day and Night Sky with Moon Experiment

Whew… I am exhausted! Getting back in to the swing of things has been an adjustment for sure…but we have been learning lots of great things this week! The first thing we did this week for day and night sky was read about it (I mean…how else do you introduce a topic!?)   The students […]

Peek at My Week {back at it}

This feels crazy going back to work! I went back for one full day before Spring Break and then it was a week off so I don’t think I was officially “back”. You are now looking at a week full of actual lesson plans written by me. I feel like I’m having to shake off […]

Five for Friday
