Five for Friday

Today I am linking up with Kacey at DoodleBugs for a little 5 for Friday Fun!

Happy Friday is music to my ears!!! It's been a BUSY week!

I have always loved reading the Bluebonnet Books each year. If you have not read Flora & Ulysses by Kate DiCamillo, you need to go grab a copy! It is a quick read and a quirky fun read. It is a great mentor text for the writing classroom!! The story line is very different and enjoyable. You are hooked very quickly as the squirrel has been sucked up in the vacuum cleaner.

We ALL need a comfort food pick me up sometimes. This time of year is hard. We are all pushing kids hard, using data, having lots of conferences, and struggling to stay on top of the piles. I promise these Homemade Oreos will help!! Thank you Cara Carroll for the recipe! I promise if you try them you will hang on tight to the recipe!

If you teach 4th grade STAAR Writing go check out Rosie's Resources. I am so glad that I stumbled along her writing products. They are closely aligned to the STAAR Writing Test. Click on her store name to visit her TPT store.

Added 2 more items to my products. Hoping for a little time soon to load several more products that are waiting for the last minute touches.

Enjoy your Friday and soak up some relaxation over the weekend!

Five for Friday

Today I am linking up with Kacey at DoodleBugs for a little 5 for Friday Fun!

After 2 long weeks of no sun and cold, it was an amazing sun filled day! Open up the blinds and soak up the sunshine!

Celebrate Good Times!!! After 2 long weeks of benchmark testing, we can mark that off the to do list. We all know it has to be done, but man I am glad when it is completed. Next, week will be the fun part----- data analysis. Actually, I see a weekend full of data analysis.

It feels so good to just know that I finally opened my own TPT store. I am ok with whatever becomes of it. The best part is knowing that I accomplished the goal.

One of my goals for this month was to finish up some craft projects. Two are marked of the list.

The best part is seeing these 3 precious guys. Life is a wild adventure but can't help but love them and cherish every second of playing with them.

Off to enjoy some great sunshine!
