It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas!

What a lovely week! We had 2 wonderful family thanksgivings full of cousins, family, laughter, and great food! I can't even begin to list all of the things I am thankful for, but a wonderful family is at the top of my list! Having a job that I LOVE and being a part of my students lives every day is also pretty high on the list! We celebrated Thanksgiving with our students on Tuesday with a traditional Charlie Brown Thanksgiving! The popcorn was cooked to perfection and the jellybeans were the right combination of sweet and chewy! #charliebrownthanksgiving

The 2nd best part of Thanksgiving? BLACK FRIDAY! It has been a girl's tradition in our family to shop, and even though my mom's recent health hasn't been great, we still were able to go! We did wait to go until 8 AM. :) We got tons of great deals! I will admit to doing a ton of on-line shopping on Thanksgiving morning! I am excited to get all our packages delivered this week!

Today has been cleaning and lesson planning! #funisover

My students love using songs as practice for reading! They keep mini-books in their book boxes and pull them out during silent reading.We will highlight our word wall words and there is a writing prompt at the end of each song. You can click on the picture to take a look!
