It's linky time!! Click above to check out other awesome bloggers with their Five for Friday!
 
1. We had such a short week- only 3 days with our holiday and our skunk day! :) We crammed so much into those three days, it's a blur! This week we worked with the -ap Word family!

2. We also worked with our -ee Hunk and Chunk. I have to say, this is one of my favorite parts of the dance! They have learned so many Hunks and Chunks that the dance is really getting cute! I'll have to snag a video this week.

3. Our Spring Centers are in full motion and the kids are loving them! I will TRY my best to get them on TpT this week! I've slacked a little soaking up this gorgeous weather!


4. Our weekly poem! For some reason, they really LOVED this poem, although some poor little one was stung on the toe! ;) Have you checked out these units yet? Deedee is one amazing teacher blogger! We love her poetry units! We always have our poems immediately when we come back from our specials time and it really is a wonderful time for the kids to get settled back down while engaging in their learning! 

 
5. Little Red Riding Hood! This was our final Fairy Tale of the year, and the kids loved it so! It helped we ended the week with our "grand finale" with our AMAZING treat from the fantabulous COREY ROSEN SCHWARTZ!

I blogged about this before, but I have been like a kid at Christmas trying to keep this a secret all week from the kids! OUR GOODIES ARRIVED!! I showed the kids the first illustration without showing them the cover and they immediately connected with The Three Ninja Pigs! When I began to tell them the story of how the author contacted me and wanted to GIVE them NINJA stickers and bookmarks... you would have thought I said they were getting a million dollars! They were ESTATIC!
 
You NEED to pre-order this book NOW!!
I guarantee it will be an instant hit and favorite in your classroom!
