Five for Friday


I love linking up with Doodles Bugs to share 5 Things from my week. 

If you'd like to join click the pic below



Here's a recap of my week:

1. The Bengals were on Monday Night Football and they won!!! WHO-DEY! {I stayed up for exactly 22 minutes of the game, then passed out from exhaustion. HA!}

2. My son and I have been spending a lot of extra time together. 6th grade homework = HOLY SMOKES! {Multiply these fractions 245/443 x 322/496 and drumroll please.... SIMPLIFY!}  It is a lot of work, but I am cherishing the extra time with this handsome guy!


3. My daughter has lost 4 teeth in the last 2 weeks. I don't know which is cuter her cute "jack-o-lantern smile" or this note she left the tooth fairy. She's lost so many teeth she does NOT want more $!

(I do not want more money. I do want a necklace.)
:)

4. We are in the middle of our Mo Willems' study and my book lovers are nuts about this outstanding author and illustrator!

5. I am having a FLASH SALE at my Tpt store. 
10% off today only! :)


Hope you all have a fantastic weekend!!

Constitution Day



Today we celebrated Constitution Day by
watching a short video clip based on this book

We then wrote our own classroom constitution. 
The students did a REALLY GREAT job thinking about the things they want everyone to do so we can all work, learn, and play well together.

We added our signatures and self-portraits to make it official.


Thank you Deanna for your great idea!
Perfect for Kinders! :)

If you give a kinder a mustache...


On Fun Friday we read Moosetache. 
My students LOVED it!
:)
They were so happy (and in shock!) when I gave them each their own mustache. 
I think we laughed 100 times the rest of the afternoon! :)


Can you take it??


We drew Moosetache and "filled with white space" with watercolor.




Some of our friends kept their mustache on the whole afternoon... 







While others put them in a safe place for free choice time.
