Alright folks…after a very early mini Spring Break, I’m ready to head back to the classroom tomorrow! Pretty happy to get back into a routine if I’m being totally honest. Not that I didn’t love being home with my boys, but being STUCK at home wasn’t all that. You’d think I’d have the cleanest house EVER, but it turns out it’s even worse than normal. Living with 3 stinky boys is NUTS. I’m grateful for NO surprise visitors this week!! HA!!
I’ve gotten several comments and lots of emails regarding the fun little light bulb template I used for my kids’ invention writing. Click the pic below to download. If you have any questions, let me know!!
I just added a new set of Mystery Pictures to TpT. If you’re learning about money or reinforcing coin counting, these would definitely be fun for your kiddos! These are color coded and include a whole new set of 9 different pictures {robot, raindrop, house, flower, dinosaur, candle, rocket, goldfish, and a star}. You can click on the pic for your mystery pic freebie!!
And head on over to TpT to get the other 8 pics {$3.50}!!
I’ll give away 3 free Money Mystery Pictures to the first 3 people who tell me about your favorite Superbowl commercial!!!
I love the Doritos one where the guy is licking peoples fingers! Gross and funny all at the same time. Doritos shelled out a lot of $$!
ReplyDeleteI loved the mini pint sized Darth Vader and the Jetta commercial.
ReplyDeleteThis is a super cute activity!
the pug attack commercial was funny!
ReplyDeleteAh bummer. I'm late. Oh well, I'll play too! I like the redheaded teacher commercial. Maybe because I am one?
ReplyDeleteI must agree with Debbie. I loved Darth Vader in the Doritos commercial. It made it even better when my cousin got so excited to see Darth Vader! (He LOVES Star Wars!)
ReplyDeleteAlso, I love all of your activities! I have been able to adapt and use so many of them in my special ed classroom!
LOVE IT!! The Dorito's commercials were the BEST!! That pug attack about CRACKED me up! HA!! Girls...y'all email me at thefirstgradeparade@gmail.com so I can send y'all the download!!!!
ReplyDeleteI liked the Doritos one the best too -- :)
ReplyDeleteI stinkin' love this! I was too slow, but I'll be getting this on TpT ASAP! My 2nd graders will LOVE this and they desperately need to work on coin counting. It's BARELY covered in our math series, so I do alot of supplementing!

The Darth Vader commercial was the best! The kids reaction was quite humorous! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the light bulb activity!! I am going to use this with my kiddos this week! I LOVE your new mystery pictures as well!!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite commercial was a tie between the beetle commerical (how cute was it with its little race strip?) and the Pepsi Max commericals...too funny!
I'm stillnot finding the light bulb download. Not sure what I amdoing wrong.
ReplyDeleteI didn't watch the Superbowl...:(. But I did watch the half-time show and my favorite was Usher. He sings and dances!!! Thanks for all you do and share. I guess I'll get something next time.
ReplyDeleteI love that I'm thinking "I need a fun place value activity for my kids to do this week. I wonder what Cara has?" and then I come to your blog, very easily find your place value activities and find the perfect game to use for my class. THANK YOU!!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely all of the old school shows!! LOVED it!!! Hope I win!
ReplyDeleteI love your Place Value Mystery Pictures! We're using them in math rotations this week. Question about the money Mystery Pictures - do they all use the quarter? Our curriculum doesn't include counting the quarter. Thanks!
ReplyDeletei love your ideas! you are so creative!
ReplyDeletei am so glad you have a blog so i can see all your great ideas :)
My favorite was the little boy dressed like Darth Vader!!!! Too cute & soo much like my 2 boys!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOk, so I LOVED the one with Darth Vader. I reminded me of my nephew who believes there is "a force!" Too cute---I laughed so hard I cried.
ReplyDeleteStill not finding the light bulb activity and writing you did...not coming up in Google docs...can you please email it to me? Thank you in advance!! romfo@fultonschools.org
