Apps Gone Fwee and Ewapsed Time Pwactice




Just click here to go check it out!

I'm weally psyched to be starting the yeaw off with Wodney and his Wat fweinds!  Wodney has been a favorwite of my past classes for yeaws and yeaws.  Wodney is a gweat book that helps teach about bullying and acceptance. I am cuwwently wowking on a mini unit fow this book!!  Love him!!


We went back to school yesterday and spent half a day meeting as a staff and half of the day working in our rooms.  Over the summer I had reconfigured the book shelves that I had made with boards and cinder blocks <see the pic in the middle> and just realized after getting the baskets on there that I don't have enough shelf space.  I am trying to figure out what to do to fit all 35 baskets of books while not hiding the space that is usually my word wall.  Any ideas?  I am open to suggestions!!




So finally after sitting there looking at it all, I did get all of the Journeys materials that came in a zillion boxes hidden but plan on going in and taking care of the books bright and early Monday morning before registration gets started.  This is what happens if you have a children's book addition!







If you teach elapsed time, here is a great packet <with an answer key!!> which gives students plenty of experience with figuring out elapsed time and the concept of being early, on time, or late.  I used it with my second graders, but since Common Core moved that concept to 3rd grade <Thank Goodness!!>  it is just sitting in my store, being all lonely.  So, feel free to pick this packet up if you teach 3rd, 4th, or 5th grades.  Feel free to share this with your upper elementary friends, also.  Elapsed time materials are hard to come by!!
