Okay so some of you may have had wild fun last night but me… I stayed home and did some planning, printing, cutting, and laminating….WAHOO fun I know. We are wrapping up our place value unit and I wanted my kiddos to have some fun activities to explore on Monday so I finally got around…

I don’t have to go back to school until September but I thought that while I was catching up on Days of Our Lives (Don’t judge me !) I would be somewhat productive. I have had a Jenga game sitting around since last year and decided to put it to use today. Originally I was…
It is always a challenge to find fun art projects for the end of the year that don’t take too long. I want my students to be able to do great art but I also want them to be able to take it home finished. This art project was perfect for the busy end of…
It has been quite a while since I posted on my blog. Yikes….I feel like I am neglecting my baby. Okay what I have I been up to that has kept me from blogging… Graduating !!!!! I went to Spokane and walked across the stage at Gonzaga university for my Masters in Administration and Leadership….
I thought I would share with you all one of the art projects my students had a ton of fun doing. They were super excited that they got to rip up old book pages and even one of the novels we did this year, Maniac Magee. Don’t worry the novel was already ripped and missing…
Back to work today and focused on Easter. It is weird to me how our Spring Break doesn‘t run into Easter as we just got back from a week off and now we have 2 short weeks in a row. If you are planning like I am check out the Easter items in my TpT…
Wow I just realized how long it has been since I posted on my blog. As usual life is crazy right now with finishing my masters degree. My first ahhhh date is April 8th because my action research is due on April 7th and then all I have to worry about is my course work….

Well it is the last day of Christmas break for me and I cannot wait to go back to school. Is it weird that over the holidays I was missing my kiddos and wondering what they were doing? I am sure I have said it already this year but I love my class. They are…
What in the world is an icosahedron you ask? It is a 20 sided 3D shape that makes for a PERFECT Christmas art project. A long time ago (9 years) I did this project with a group of students and then forgot all about it. Well this year I wanted to do an art project with…
I am home from work today with no voice. I guess I was talking too much during parent-teacher interviews last night. Well since I have been so busy lately and haven’t posted in a while, I thought this would be a great time to catch up. I love finding new art ideas online so I…
April is National Poetry Month so I thought I would have my first blog post of the month all about poetry. I LOVE teaching poetry in my class especially with the older grades because they are very creative and are not always reliant on templates to fill in the blank. I am kind of sad…
