Au-some Things, New Stuff, & Freebie(S)

Oh, how I love Fridays. I’m so glad for the weekend. This
seemed like a whirlwind week. We worked on a lot this week.

Before I get to the good stuff (FREEBIE(S))

{Yes,
there is an S}

Here is a bit
about what is going on in my classroom.

Au-some
Things!

1.
One of
my kiddos finally learned how to tie his shoes! He was so proud, he asked me to
go get his brother so he could show his brother! We were all so proud.

2. I have not one, but two student-teacher
placements in my classroom. They are my classroom parapros. They tried to get
away from me to do their classroom log hours but I said “no!” Ha-ha not really!
I believe they are both happy to be in the classroom working. One of them is
working on her early childhood license (trying to get her to cross over to the
dark side (aka Special Ed.) & the other is going for special ed. They both
are doing wonderful!

We are
learning about living things. We read The Very Hungry Caterpillar and learned
about what it means to “respond to the environment”. We also made our very own
caterpillars.

Another one of
their lessons was making melted snowmen rice Krispies treats. They were very
yummy.

They are both
doing wonderful jobs. I am delighted to have them in the room doing their field
hours.

This is the beginning. We made our Rice Krispie Treat into a circle and put frosting on it to show he melted!

This is our finished product. We used candy corn, pretzels, raisins and nuts. They thought it was yummy.

New Stuff: We
are still going through changes at work. I think it may be for the good though.
So I am optimistically excited for that. Only time will tell how it will affect
the program.

New TPT

I’ve added a few new TPT resources that I am very
excited about. Check them out below.
