Another Give Away!! Last Day of Sale!!

I have worked on my Moon Activities (yes, new name for a new look) unit all week and it is finally posted! It went from 21 pages to 54! And in celebration, YES another GIVE AWAY!! All you have to do is mention the unit on your blog once you win. (If you don't have a blog, please show it to some teachers you know.) I will choose three winners at random on Wednesday. (Random day!) Just leave me a comment and your email! Cool!

In the mean time, I hope you will take a peak at it! It is on sale along with my Halloween Games packet and my Itsy Bitsy Spider Packet but the SALE ENDS MONDAY MORNING! Yikes! So hurry over to my TpT Store to check them out before the sale ends.

On another note, I'm FREEZING!! I had to turn the heater on the other night and it is STILL on!! We went from summer right into winter! Ugh!! If only I could see the sun through those gray clouds and hope that it will warm up again soon. Send me some warmth!!  ;)

First Grade Quote of the Day

While trying to get all her First Graders lined up to go home yesterday, my co-worker said to her students, "Hurry up and get your coats on, I'm not your mother and I can't do it for you." To which one of her students replied, "Ya know, teachers are a lot like our Moms, except we have to listen to them!"
=)
Happy weekend!

P.S.
We had our first snow shower of the school year yesterday! The students were so excited! (Me, not so much....)

P.P.S.
We also had a malfunctioning fire alarm going off for twenty minutes giving all of us a heart attack.

P.P.P.S. I also had a student forget to take his ADHD meds and while working on the computer, picked up the mouse and licked the entire bottom of it. Yah, yesterday was one of THOSE days! ;)

It's All Fun and Games!

So, I've decided we all need to relax and have a little fun this October! No more stressing and worrying! How about a trip to Hawaii!?.....Yah, not in my budget right now either....Well, I do have a quick fix that will get you through Halloween.... I just posted a short little game packet for Halloween on TpT. It includes BINGO, concentration, pin the wart on the witch's nose, pin the spider on the web, and a pumpkin seed activity. And it's on sale 20% off this week! It's not much, (I wish I could take us all to Hawaii!), but it might just be the little something that will get ya through that Halloween day at school! ;) AND the first 5 to follow my blog and comment on this post will get it FREE! (Please include your email!)
Sending hugs,
Rebecca

P.S. My Itsy Bitsy Spider Packet, All About the Moon Packet, and Apples and Seasons Unit are all now 20% off at TpT. =)

Halloween Bingo- Games and Activities

Things kids say that make you go "hmmmm..."

I love teaching first graders just because of the things they say sometimes. Today, we were brainstorming what the moon looks like and one student raised his hand and said "The moon looks like a banana. You know, when it's kinda shaped like a C in the sky."  Genius!  I had never thought of it that way before and loved it!

Last week my grade level had that glorious job of bus duty. We have signs that are posted on our classroom door so that parents know where to look for us. One of my co-worker's students came in to school one morning day freaking out. She grabbed her teacher's hand pulling her to the door and said "Look teacher! There's a swear word on your door!" When asked what she was talking about the little girl pointed to the word "Hall" in Hall Duty and announced "It says Hell!!" The rest of the week we had a good laugh as we went out for "Hell Duty". ;)

There is only Love! And boy don't we know it working with these precious little ones. Must get to bed!

Happy Monday
