Fluttering Through the Grades

Liberty Bell How To

Once upon a time, we found a pin... Unfortunately, it led to nowhere. If it's yours, please let us know! We loved it and are firm believers in giving credit where credit is due. We've been studying American Symbols as part of our Social Studies learning and knew our class would love making Liberty Bells similar to the pin above. Unfortunately, we couldn't personally get the aluminum foil to look as pretty as the pin above, so we were worried that our first graders would have a hard time ... VIEW POST

5 for Friday Whirlwind

Fridays just keep coming and we just keep opening the door.  Come right in Friday... Our welcome mat is dusted and our arms are open wide. We're linking up with Doodle Bugs Teaching for 5 fabulously random pieces from our whirlwind of a week. Picture Day! That exclamation mark was for effect. We aren't really that excited.

5 for Fraturday

We're linking up with Doodle Bugs Teaching a little late because we've been flying in and out of town, trying to soak up our last rays of summer sunshine.

Here's some highlights from their trip... Tammy's family ventures to San Diego for a week each summer. Growing up by the beach ... VIEW POST

Throwback Thursday ~ Stickerboard Style

Throwing it back to you, while we're throwing back as much summer as we can. The countdown is on people! We must squeeze every morsel of sunshine in before the school bell tolls. But, we've had a few midsummer nightmares about our new batch of firsties in recent weeks...Which can really only mean one thing. We are further from the end of school and closer to the beginning. Ouch. That hurts to even type...  We are dreaming of things like wild lines where nobody stands straight...And, shouting ... VIEW POST
