Five for Friday on a Sunday??

Ummm.......not even sure if this is okay but I'm doing it anyway.  :)  It's just so much easier to revisit the past week on Sunday {Fun day} rather than Friday {Fried day}.  So I'm linking up with Doodle Bugs Teaching.......
...plus 2 days. :)
1. 
 It's that time of year when everyone gets a little crazy..........including teachers and the things we do to keep the kiddos excited, focused, and motivated.  Would you do the Harlem Shake????  Well, we would and did!!  Check us out.
 {this is a video we made for our principal.......we were hoping to give her a better idea of our faculty meetings when she is away}
This makes me laugh out loud every time I watch it and although we originally started off making one for the kids......I think it was more therapeutic for us.  We relaxed and belly laughed!!  We will show the kids the video we made for them during our ROCK THE STAAR assembly on Monday.
2.
In honor of Earth Day, my sweet family planted a vegetable garden on Saturday.  Isn't it beautiful.
Yes, it looks a lot like a vegetable prison but we have a puppy the size of a horse that is still chewing on things.  So this is to keep him out.
3.
On Sunday it was obvious our puppy is a vegetarian and nothing will stop him from getting what he wants. {sigh........}
 {see the evidence hanging from his mouth}    
                                                                          
4.
Little Sass is soooo ready to swim that she thought she would give a try.  The temp is sitting at 68 degrees.....obviously still a little too cold.  She couldn't get out fast enough.
5.
Little Sass finished her 3rd grade market product.  She will be selling these to her classmates on Friday.  The past month she has been earning money in her classes to pay for her sale booth and to buy products that her classmates will have at their booths.

Have a Super Sweet Sunday!

    The Harlem Shake video is awesome! I would love to get faculty to do something like that. I, too, think Sunday is a better focused day for my blogging!

    Check out my blog over at ifyougiveateacheratreat.blogspot.com. I spent today making my theme for next year, Under the Sea! I have a little give away on my first post from today so don't miss out!

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.   ...

Made It Monday

Well, I think I have completely settled into my summer.  I know this because once I get settled I start summer crafting, pinning, and looking forward to Stop by 4th Grade Frolics to see all the Monday Made Its.   My first Made It screams sUmMeR! My little sass has been selling lemonade for extra money for the past couple of months.  She LOVEs it and works very hard at it so my friend decided to make her a lemonade stand from an old fence wood. Seriously, how could you not stop and buy lemonade.   The sign at the top was made with chalkboard spray paint. Super cool and it was only 3 dollars at Wal-mart.  I'm currently making a list of all the things I want to spray around my house. ;-) The chalkboard makes it easy for her to change it from Lemonade in the Summer to Hot Cocoa in the winter.  This past weekend she was selling old clothes, shoes, and bags so her sign said "Jen's Lemonade and Boutique".  {first customer}  ...
