December Currently

Is it possible?!  December?!?!  I am linking up with Farley for my December Currently at Oh' Boy 4th Grade!

I am so glad that Josh had the weekend off!  We had a lot of fun shopping and eating out (hey - we had 13 people at our house for Thanksgiving, so I didn't want to do any more cooking after that!) and just hanging around the house.

 

As much as I look forward to all of our fun Christmas projects and activities at school, I would love another day off!  I have so much to do before tomorrow morning!

 

We upgraded our phones to iPhones yesterday!  But I am having trouble getting all of my music synched from my iPad mini to the phone, so that is on the to-do list today.

 

One of my favorite Christmas traditions is the Christmas Eve service at church.  It is usually a candlelight service, along with communion.  It is a great way to refocus on the true meaning of Christmas and Jesus' birth.

Five for Friday {November 22}

Happy Friday!  SO glad that it's the end of the week, because I don't have the strength for another work day this week!  I am linking up with Kacey at Doodle Bugs Teaching for my Five for Friday!

 

 

Scholastic Book Fair started this week.  I LOVE it!

the books I purchased

One of the books - I laughed so hard while reading it!

We discussed push and pull in our force unit this week.  The kids loved it when we pulled out the scooters, especially when we tried them on the ramp in our building!

 I have been working on some new centers.  Here's one of them being used.  I am now obsessed with using Velcro dots on the cards.  It is easier to check their work and the dry erase doesn't always come off!

We have been working on putting the flooring down in our living room following our remodeling.  Here is what it looked like on Sunday afternoon.  Josh is working now on getting more put down.  My job?  Stand on the boards so he can align them.  I can do that!

I have school on Monday, Tuesday, and half day Wednesday next week.  I have been waiting to do this book and am glad that we'll have the time to do it and it will keep the kids busy!

 

Happy Weekend!

 



Wordless Wednesday

Happy Hump Day!


Thanksgiving Plans!

For the first year in a LONG time, we are teaching the Monday, Tuesday, and half day Wednesday of Thanksgiving week.  I knew that with the extra two and a half days, I wanted to do some fun things for Thanksgiving!

 

We are going to read I Know an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Pie.  Here's a couple of the items in my newest product.

These next images are in my Thanksgiving Mini Unit FREEBIE.  I have a reading unit test to give this week.  Since I want to do the test in small groups, I will be using these activities for seatwork!

Have a great week!
