My firsties LOVE to do this as part of Daily 5!  All they do is choose words from each column and write a sentence.  Then, they identify the noun and verb.  You can get this for FREE!  All you need to do is follow my Facebook page HERE.

April Currently

It's not quite feeling like spring here.  But it's April.  I'll take it.  Warm weather has to be around the corner, right?

Since it's the beginning of April that means it is time for a new Currently!


Listening to:   Big Bang Theory!  It always makes me laugh! This episode is one of my top ten favorite episodes:


 
LOVING:  We have been focusing on non fiction writing.  My first graders LOVE it!  

You can get a copy of the book my kiddos are working on HERE.

THINKING:  I am starting to see signs of spring!  So happy!  I walked out my front door this morning and my daffodils looked similar to this:  
 

I can't wait until they open! 

Then maybe it will get a litter warmer out....

WANTING:  a nap.  I'm not asking for much.  No. Can. Do.  Too much to do. 

NEEDING:  to finish a project for my Writer's Workshop.  I got the idea from my friend, Liz.  I can't wait to share it with you.  Stay tuned.... I will tell you all about it soon!  I promise! 

HOURS and LAST DAY:  Our Last Day is May 30.  The kids have a half day.  Sadly, we have to put in a whole day.  But, it does give the teachers an opportunity to get a few final things done before we leave for the summer!

The last day will be here before we know it!  Now the pressure is on to get things done!  YIKES!
