Anchor Charts, Festivals, and A New Book! Oh My!

I have been so busy lately!  Isn't that the life of every teacher though?  I have a few updates to do but I am going to put a couple into one post.

Anchor Charts
These things are all the rage!  And I totally get why.  I LOVE them!  They are such a great asset to my classroom.  My students look forward to the new ones on Monday mornings when I am introducing a new weeks set of skills.  These are just a few of them.  If you use Pearson's Reading Street for Common Core then they will look familiar to you.  I have done one so far for every week, but I only took pictures of these two so far for some reason.






I also LOVED this chart that I saw on Pinterest so I copied it for my room.  I would love to give credit to whomthe original author was but unfortunately the photo I pinned doesn't trace back to a web page.  If you know who it belongs too, please let me know.





Fall Festival

We recently had our fall festival at my school and it was a HUGE success (HUGE Caroline!!....I couldn't resist!). Our PTA raised a lot of money and the kids had a wonderful time!  I was manning the popcorn station for a couple of hours.  My co-worker and teammate was there too.....



This was only 20 minutes after it opened and it was jamming already!!



We had about 8 bounce houses and jumbo slides, inflatable games, carnival games, corn hole, and every kind of junk food imaginable! Such a great time!!!

A New Book

Do you read the Divergent Series?!?!  


 If not, do yourself a favor and pick it up!!  At the urging of two friends, I finally did and killed the first two books in 4.5 days.  Well, on Tuesday the new book and final one of the series was released.  I am having a love/hate relationship with the outcome.  I feel complete but so completely mad.  I hate when authors do this!

Another post coming soon of a bird feeder project we did!  Happy Teaching!!
