Saturday 6 January 13

Hi!  Welcome back to the second week of Sunday 6!  Thanks to those who linked up with me last week!  In case you missed last week's post, click HERE to see it!  I've enjoyed reading your posts!  We had another short week this week...snow day Monday and early release Friday due to snow/ice.  Luckily I was able to squeeze in some teaching Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, although most of my time was spent re-directing and reviewing classroom discipline and routines...The kids haven't had a solid week of school in 4 weeks.  Yikes.

Last Sunday, Mr. Wheeler and I met up with my family to celebrate my birthday.  We had breakfast and went to some antique shops.  It's always great to see my family!  They live just 1.5 hours North, but everyone is always busy, so we don't see one another as often as we'd like.  We had a great visit!  

When we saw my family, they of course had presents for me!  Hahaha!  My mom and dad got me this egg cooker!  I am obsessed with it!  I eat boiled eggs for breakfast every day (just the whites).  I was buying pre-boiled eggs but I thought I'd rather make my own.  Any time I can simplify the cooking process, I'm down!  This egg cooker is amazing!  So easy.  You just add water to the bottom, put the eggs in, put the lid on, and turn the button on.  Come back 18 minutes later and your eggs are perfectly hard boiled!!!!!!!!!!!  There's also a little tray for making poached eggs if you like that...To grab yourself one of these (for cheap!) click below. 

As I mentioned above, this week was a little crazy and I had to do a lot of re-directing.  It was exhausting.  I also tried to cram in probably too much academic stuff because #curriculumdepartment.  By Thursday I had to give the kids a break.  We read my favorite winter book, Snowy Day.  I also have the DVD so we watched that and did the Scholastic News that went with it.  They loved all three of these things!

We started a new classroom goal and I had to bust out the big dog (pizza) for this because the kids are bonkers.  Once we meet this goal, we will move on to another!  I love using this incentive in my room.  It really helps promote teamwork!  Grab it by clicking below.

My teammate and I were #twinning on Friday!  We both happened to have this tee from The Wright Stuff Chics!

Morning Meeting has been rusty because of the inconsistent school schedule, so we've been working hard on paying attention and participating during this time.  Yesterday we played "Find my Mystery Word."  To see more about Morning Meeting, click HERE.
