What a long week... It's time to link up to Doodle Bug's Five for Friday... except I'm posting on Saturday! Here's some randomness of my week in pictures!
2) My beloved Erin COndren is running out next month... so you know I was delighted to get this in my email. You can get $20 of their site until the end of February. I am super excited...did you know that you can chose which month you want your planner to start? I will order mine this week, but the calendar will start in April! Yay!
3) I have been hard at work reading some of the novels that I am expected to teach during the last 9 weeks. I am pretty pumped that I can even THINK about the last 9 weeks of the school year {can I get a collective AMEN}. In Georgia, we have frameworks provided by the state to use as a guide... So, I am creating packs to help my kiddos make some connections. Hoping to finish these 2 packs sometime in the next week or two.... fingers crossed! Do you guys have frameworks provided by your state to teach the Common Core?
4) My spaceship craftivity that I came up with to go along with the Get Rich Quick Club book. My kiddos were watching me draw it and just started blurting "football" "hamburger"... then a co-worker said "grill?" I give up... these people have no imagination... haha!
5) I celebrated a 30something birthday last Friday... and got this clutch from my friend Tara... and I absolutely love it. I was my favorite birthday present. I love the color yellow... and I would monogram everything if I could... so this was a great combo of both those loves!

First, a very happy birthday to you! I am obsessed with the Amazing Race too! Who is your favorite team so far? I haven't picked a fav yet, but I know the teams I could do without:) Can't wait for Sunday!

Happy Belated Birthday Stacy!
ReplyDeleteYour clutch is BEAUTIFUL! I love it!
I am very excited to see your 2 new book companion units! I am working on trying to do the same thing, but have hit a wall. Your frame and clipart on the Lemonade Wars is close to what I need inspiration with. Can you tell me which company you purchased from?
Perhaps your new units will yield more creativity to mine!
Have a wonderful weekend!

Happy belated birthday!! Mine is tomorrow. I didn't realize the Erin Condren planners could start any month. Boo! I would have asked for that for my birthday. I already put it on my Christmas wish list. Haha! I love your clutch!

Stacy... how cool that your name is spelled the same as mine.... and in a really STRANGE twist your birthday is also in February... and before I got married, my middle name was Rena!!!! CRAZY! I hope that you have a happy birthday... oh and I think the getting to pick the start month on the planners is a new thing b/c I totally don't remember getting to pick with my last one. I am heading over to your blog now to become your newest follower! :)
DeleteYour book companion covers look really fun :) What grades will they be for?

Hey, Rebecca... the book companions are made to be multi-grade.... I have to use them as read alouds in my first grade class (Georgia frameworks are required in my district) but I created materials to make them user friendly for 2nd-4th. I just posted the Lemonade War one tonight... the details are all in my latest blog post if that helps! Hope you're having a great week so far! :)
