Time for Five for Friday with Doodle Bugs Teaching! Mine will be very short because for some reason this week has felt like a whirlwind and I don't have a single picture. I'll try to do better next week!
1. Yay for having today off!! I slept til 9 and am still wearing pajamas. Oh well... I do want to try to do my lesson plans today though so I can enjoy the rest of the weekend.
2. iPads! 25 iPads were delivered to my classroom on Tuesday afternoon. My partner teacher and I are sharing them between our two classes. Technology is still working out the kinks of adding apps and syncing the devices, but hey we are excited!

4. The Voice and Nashville were back this week! I have never watched American Idol, Survivor, etc. But I do love the Voice. And the Apprentice. So I guess I can't claim I don't watch reality TV.
5. I finished my Spring Dictionary Activities! My students love using the dictionary for games, etc. because they've never known how to use it before so they think it is amazing. Click on the here to check it out!
I am sharing the following from the pack as a freebie. Click the document to download the Google Doc. It is an optional recording sheet for my Dictionary Battles activity in which students race to find words in the dictionary.
Finally, don't forget to enter my 100 follower giveaway for a $25 Amazon gift card! Click the image to find the post where you can enter. The giveaway ends tomorrow night and I'll announce the winner on Sunday.

Congrats on the ipads!! I am getting 1:1 for my classroom to use for 3 weeks! I would love to talk with you and share some ideas on how you are going to use them! :) If you are interested please just sent me an email! :)

Oh wow! I'm totally having iPad jealousy right now! Yay you, though!! :O)
ReplyDeleteI was in my pjs until about 2:30. I think it's a right somewhere that we should be able to do that- maybe they'll add it to the constitution or something...it's a thought! (can you tell we studied the constitution this week?)
Thanks for the freebie! That pack looks awesome!!

We just finished researching animals also! We just posted the pics this week. It was so much fun.
ReplyDeleteHave you heard of pebblego.com? It is super kid friendly and you can get a two week trial for free. I wish we could afford to buy it!
Oh and the voice!!! I love that show.

I love those National Geographic books. I just found a bunch of them at our local Dollar Tree for only $1 each!
