Oh Deer!......parent gifts

Well, I am cutting it close this year.....sheesh!  Normally by this time I would have gifts all wrapped up and sent home.  I just really procrastinated this year with what I wanted to do.  I think I pinned everything on Pinterest.  I loved the reindeer ornament on the small canvas but after pricing those cute little things, I had to come up with something new.




 So as I was walking away from the cute little canvas isle I noticed a SALE on beautiful, shiny, and clear christmas bulbs.  PERRRRFECT!!
So right then and there it had be decided.  We will make reindeer with our thumbprints.  I've seen that somewhere but cannot think of where.  I thought it was something that I had pinned on Pinterest but I couldn't find it on my board.  So I bought and borrowed some acrylic paint and we got started.  A teamie of mine said "I love you dearly". Yes! Yes! Yes! 

I'm the worst photographer EVER....and I should paint my nails....anyway, didn't they turn out cute????  They wrote "i love you dearly" but with my picture taking skills you can't see it.
I sure hope the parents adore them like I do.  I love to get pictures of MY kids from their classroom so I just assume other parents are the same way, so I added a picture of the kids on the tag.  One side has each kiddos picture and on the other side the poem below.  I came up with the poem below and I would LOVE for you to have it, I just ask that you give me credit if you use it.

I am sure at this point I am not helping anyone but I choose to look at it like I am early for next year. :0

Have a SWEET day!!

Behavior that Makes Cents!

I've decided for this next school year to implement $$ into my behavior clip chart.  Our school has certain colors and points that they want us to use and deduct from each child's conduct grade based on the child's color/conduct clip.  So each year I jazz up my color chart BUT this year I'm implementing Coins.......get it???!!!  Behavior that Makes Cents!!  Okay.......this is how it will work in my classroom.  Each day the students will stamp their behavior calendar with a coin stamp based on our color chart.  For example, black will be used for a quarter because black is considered exceptional behavior throughout the day. They will use a green stamp for dimes, yellow stamp for nickels, and a red stamp for a penny.  Although, I rarely have color changes, I truly feel like this will motivate them to not only KNOW their coins but be able to add them up.  They will NEED to know how much they have in order to spend their money on Friday.   ...

HO HO Oh No!!!

If cameras were in the classroom AT&T would be calling me for their next commercial.  I LOVE these commercials because I feel like everyone in the world gets a little glimpse of the great conversations that take place in the classroom of young kids.  Sometimes the most amazing conversations take place and then sometimes......not so much..  Okay, back to "HO". I had given my kids all the letters in the words GROUNDHOG DAY.  I then challenged them to come up with 25 new words using these specific letters.  They are hard at work when I get this question "Can I use the word "ho"?  Me: "Well, no because hoe (then I precede to tell them about a garden hoe and what it is used for-you know, building a little background knowledge, just in case) is spelled with an "e" and you don't have an "e" available to you."   Another student says, "I mean the other "ho"."  Me: "Well, that's not really appropria...
