Five for Friday!

http://doodlebugsteaching.blogspot.com/2014/05/five-for-friday-linky-party-may-9th.html
 
(Click above for other Five for Friday posts!)
 
First of all, I'm alive.
Second of all,  If you follow me on FB, I haven't been TOTALLY absent this week.
 I did post the winner giveaways as promised on there! (see more below) 
 
It's ironic I just said this last week, but I'll always be a mommy first.
 If that offends you or you don't want to read about my mommy side, this isn't the blog for you.
I said that in my nicest teacher voice, but seriously.
 
So anyways, it's ironic because I was absent this week on my blog for this very reason.
I won't go into details because my Momma BEAR will come out, but my son was injured on Monday at the back-up sitter's house.
Yes, in case you're wondering..
I HAVE had to tell myself it's not worth the jail time it won't teach my son a lesson if I use my meanest teacher voice with the lady and possibly a few choice words.
He's still bruised and a little swollen in places, but is ok!
Here he is enjoying his new water table!

Ok, so on to #1 for the week!
This little treat cart visited us each day this week with all sorts of goodies for Teacher Appreciation week! So awesome!!


#2 It's interesting what the kiddos pick up on about you, without you even telling them.
I received this teacher appreciation gift from one of my kiddos.
The card inside read, "He said you like cups, I hope he's right!"
I do, in fact, drink out of reusable cups!
LOVE it!
 
#3 Glue dots!
 GET SOME IN YOUR LIFE!
I used to be a Velcro addict, but now I'm a glue dot fiend!
These are amazing because you can easily reposition them and they are SUPER sticky!
AND they were on CLEARANCE at Meijer.
SCORE! 
 
#4 New table arrangement.
17 days left and I changed the seating.
Sounds legit. Haha.
Don't ask what possessed me to do this, but it's worked out pretty well this week!
 
 

#5 Animal Research Reports!
After many trials this week, TpT and I finally meshed and I got these puppies uploaded!

    1. LOVE your STEM bubble blowers and cars this week! Those were adorable, Carol!
      I have always wondered what the kids say... I had another bring in a Mother's Day card with a (somewhat sketchy) seed inside. The card talked about how she said The Lorax was my favorite!
      My blog design was SO EASY! I HIGHLY recommend Megan from a Bird in Hand Designs. Mine only took 3 days because I chose the "Build Your Blog" option.

      Thanks for commenting! :)
