Here are some totally random thoughts! 1. Summer goes by way to fast!!! I think I'm in mourning that tomorrow is July 1st. My husband says to quit whining and be happy that I have all summer off :) 2. My list of things to do keeps growing!!! I'm headed ...

1. Supermoon. This was one of my best moon shots. 2. We are in Denver! I LOVE DENVER! The museum of nature and science was VERY LARGE! By the end of the day, I was worn out. They had a cool observatory where you could see 60 ...
I thought it would be fun to throw my first linky party. In real life, I'm quiet and somewhat shy. I feel like this is a HUGE DEAL! I'm hoping people show up and I didn't clean house for nothing ;) I've been at PD the last three days, and they had a fantastic ...
Compared to other Made It Monday posts I've read, this is pretty unearthshattering :) My children had fun with me, and nobody was harmed in our first Monday Made It! At the Dollar Store, I picked up some flat marbles, and wrote letters on them. I also found ...
I love picture books. Here are some of my favorites (I tried to pick books for a variety of grade levels). There are so many fabulous picture books to choose from, it was VERY difficult to pick out my favorite!!!! Check out First Grade and Fabulous, for many ...
1. Summer PD! Yesterday, today, and Monday, I've been at PD. Yesterday was OUTSTANDING!!! I need to get all my notes sorted, but I loved the phonics continuum that was shared. There were so many little things I realized that I didn't know, that could ...
I thought this was a fun linky. Click here to link up with Forever in First! I try and always be very positive. In fact, my first day at my current school as a reading interventionist, when I said the above statement, the reply was, "You know we can't read, right?" ...
My children love playing board games. We have Monopoly Millionaire, and it lasts about 45 minutes (winner is the first one to $1 million). If you read the reviews on Amazon, people say it is too short. I think it is the perfect length of time. Every once and a ...

1. My early mornings this week were spent at swimming lessons, then we went to my school, and the afternoons were spent at basketball camp. Three hours of basketball camp everyday is quite a bit for a six year old and a ten year old! My daughter had volleyball practice ...

I tutor every Monday and Wednesday and I love it. The little girl I'm tutoring does not go to my school, and she loves the strategies we are working on! They are all new to her (which keeps her very engaged, but makes me sad that she hasn't been taught these strategies). I'm ...
It is finally going to be hot here this week! I see some trips to the pool in our future :) I made up this little sight word matching game for 4th of July! I picked these words, because they seem to be the words students have a hard time learning when they are learning ...
On Sunday night, it was nice and cool...the windows were open, and I thought I was hearing the "whooosh" of a hot air balloon (which was a strange sound to be hearing). Sure enough, one was trying to get over the trees in our neighborhood, and made an emergency landing three ...
