Geez Louise!! Where has the time gone! I can't believe it's November already. Whew! I survived Halloween! I always hate it when Halloween or Valentines' Day fall in the middle of the week. They create absolute mayham. But, they do provide fun opportunities to plan creative activities. I wasn't as creative this year as I would have liked, but I did manage to tie in the Halloween candy bar fractions lesson I cited earlier, along with some spooky stories and persuasive writing for my elementary schoolers. My early childhood music class had fun with many different Halloween-themed songs and chants. I'm thrilled beyond thrilled that the election is almost over, and soon, all of the nasty advertizing and annoying phone calls will stop!! I'm looking forward to reading other posts, finding new blogs and to joining this little monthly linky party.
Happy teaching!
Hi Jessica! I found you through Farley's Currently :) I, too, don't enjoy holidays in the middle of the week. Not only did we have Halloween on Wednesday, but we also sent grade cards home the same day and had Parent-Teacher conferences on Thursday! What a week! I hope you are having a relaxing weekend!
