Happy Fri-YAH To You!

Happy Fri-YAH to you! We survived another week at this CrAzY time of the school year and for me that means I only have 9 more school days left! YAH! I am super proud of how much my 2nd graders have learned this year, but I am so ready for the summer break to spend with my little one. She is growing up much too quickly and I want to soak up every minute!


As I promised, I wanted to give you a peek at Miss M's 3rd birthday. She chose to do a Thomas the train theme. He is her FAVORITE character!! I went to work trying to come up with some ideas for her party, so here are some pictures of how it turned out. I think it turned out very well if I do say so myself!

Hope you enjoyed this peek into my home life! Happy Friday everyone!

Lots of Learning about Lifecyles

I love teaching about life cycles every year! This year since I am in 2nd grade, we have lots of science standards that focus on lifecycles. We are currently in the process of growing our caterpillars. My students are excitedly watching them grow daily from the itty, bitty caterpillars that came into our classroom a week ago. They are writing about the lifecycles in their science journals and are so excited to see them create their chrysalises.


I always enjoyed doing these life cycles in kindergarten as well. I was looking over some of the emergent readers I made when I was in kindergarten and decided to give them a face-lift. I think they look much better with the new clipart from Creative Clips. I have posted them in my TpT store for $1.25 each, but ALL of my emergent readers will be on sale this weekend (Friday, Saturday, & Sunday) for 10% off! Click on the links below to purchase:


These books have also been added to my Kindergarten Emergent Readers bundle and the price has increased to reflect these additions. If you purchase this bundle now, you will receive all future updates for FREE even as the price of the bundle continues to increase!
