The Sounds of {aw}

Well, the big kids have completed their testing and all of the Littles have survived 2 days of begin locked up in the classroom.  It was a busy and chatty day today. The kids seem as though they have so much more to talk about on days that they are supposed to be SUPER QUIET.  We spent some of our time reviewing the {aw, au, al, o} sounds.  We played AWKWARD, looked for words with the \aw\ sound in books and magazines, and made a Yawning Dawn/Yawning Paul. You can get it {here} if it's something you could use to help reinforce this sound.   


  
EX.HAUST.ED!!  Oh and did I mention that I got a new kiddo, broke up an underground toy smuggling ring, and helped 22 children quietly and cautiously walk soup from the cafeteria to my classroom on styrofoam trays(what were the cafeteria ladies thinking).  I am so ready to go back to a normal day tomorrow.  It has been CUH.RAZ.Y!  
  

Oh, I should share a  few pics from Easter weekend.....I am so thankful for Mr. Sweet because without him we wouldn't have pictures of our family.....even the ones he is in.  Seriously, he's that good.

I Monday MADE IT!!

Hi Sweet and Sassy Friends!!  I have some fun pictures of some things that I have made just in time for school to start and Monday Made It.  {insert cheering and clapping} Okay, first.......I didn't actually make the bench BUT I did repaint it and get it classroom ready.  That should totally count and the fact that I nearly took out the neighbor's window during the process.  {if your my neighbor reading this--I'm sorry and it's okay} Here is the before: {donated by a dear friend-LOVE her} I need you to picture this:  I'm on my front porch with the lid of the bench resting nicely on the back of the bench (easier for sanding).  I'm using a handy-dandy electric sander.  Super powerful.  I place the sander on the lid and push the button..........OH. MY. WORD. the board shoots across the yard towards the neighbors window. YIKES!!  A little embarressing but no one saw, so I pick it up bring it back and this time I hang on to it....

All Things Techy...and FREE

Well ya'll, I have so many wonderful things going on in the classroom and it's all things techy.  I cannot wait to share a few of them with you.   If you haven't stopped by our class blog then you should.     { Mrs. Kirby's Kid's Blog } These authentic pieces of writing just make me so stinkin' happy.  I constantly check my email throughout the weekend to see if they have written anything.  Not because I told them to but because they want to. (insert happy teacher dance right here)  I took my very first student bloggers to the school board and they told our school board what a blog is and why they think it's important.  I gave each one of the kids that presented a small journal, sticky notes and pens to write their ideas about things they'd like to blog about.  This is what their journals look like 2 days later.... These kids cannot get enough!!  Look at all their THOUGHTS... BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE!   Look at...
