Let’s Play I Have, Who Has? with Freebielicious
Habitats of the World Lesson Plans
Several years ago, we received the news that habitats had been added to our science curriculum. We loved the idea of taking our students around the world to learn about plant and animal life around the globe! What we didn't expect was that it would take our science curriculum to a whole new level that our students would love. We've received a lot of questions on how we use our Habitats of the World Bundle throughout the year...So climb aboard our plan book...Buckle your belts and let's take a ... VIEW POST
Listen Up 3…Yippee!
Our Listen Up Family is growing! wink emoticonListen Up 3 has just been added to our collection.

Instead, we use our sharing time each week to practice and develop beginning public speaking skills with ... VIEW POST
That’s a Wrap! End of School Activities
We're going with the Field of Dreams, "If you build blog it, they it will come." mentality at the moment. 29 days and counting left in the school year for us, which we are sure may seem like a lot to some of you who are ending this school year much, much sooner, but we will get our payback time come July. ;) We really don't know what it is about the end of the school year, but we absolutely love it! Perhaps it's because the pressure is off. The learning is learned. The books are read. Homework ... VIEW POST
