June Currently!

I can't believe it's JUNE!  Party fingers.  I have been in Colorado for the last 9 days.  My cousin got married and I felt it was a solid opportunity to make a holiday out of it.  The original plan was one week in Colorado then hit it back to Nashville.  Well---one thing led to another and now I will be out West for a month.  I leave for Salt Lake today and will be hitting Yellowstone and then down to Southern Utah to hit up a few more National Parks with my brother.  Pray for us!  :) We are like oil and vinegar.

IT's FRIDAY

It's that time again for the linky with Oh'Boy 4th Grade.  

I want to give a shout out to my fabulous teammate- Susan Ezzell.  She is such a great mentor, friend, and entertainer! Susan is ridiculously creative and creates awesome projects for her kids.  We are currently in the middle of her Great American Soil Project.  We are collecting soil samples from across the country and doing experiments with them in class.  Check out her blog

I am also challenging the kids to all finish a book trailer by the end of school!  Here is the most recent creation!

Happy, happy, happy Friday!!!

My First Currently

My buddy and pal Elizabeth Hall over at Kickin' It In Kindergarten has been guiding my steps as a new blogger!  I was so naive at how many options there are to connect and simply how much you have to know!!!  Yesterday she told me... you must do this Linky.  I of course had no clue what she was talking about and like all good students had to google it!!!  So here I am... posting my first... and definitely not last in the blogger world!  

I also want to give a HUGE SHOUT OUT to Michelle from the 3 am teacher for designing my blog.  I think she is a full time designer, part time prophet.  I was so nervous about the design and the first thing she game up with was nothing short of BRILLIANT and she totally nailed it.  I cannot rave enough about her professionalism, creativity, and just friendly nature.  She really helped this new blogger get her sea bearings and for that I am ever indebted!!! Please go check out her GORGEOUS graphics and designs.
 

My school district was just given the gift of a snow day, so I am now going to go snuggle up with my friends, watch the Oscars, and work on a bigger blog post for this week that involves our recent country/economic reports!  

Enjoy your Sunday evening!!!
