Five for Friday

Hey everyone!

I can't believe we have only 7 days left with our kiddos. This has been the longest and craziest week yet! Of course, what to do on Friday night.....link up with Doodle Bugs Teaching to share my week! Don't forget to link up and leave me a comment!!!

1. We began our week with Mother's Day activities. We made flowers, cupcakes, books, poems, etc. Here is one of our thinking maps. Don't you love inventive spelling!

2. Next we worked on typing up our writing pieces on our friends. Each student got to pick a friend and write about that friend. Then they got on Starfall and made a picture of their friend. Let's just say that I am glad that there were 3 adults and 4 fifth graders to help! This has been one of my favorite writings! However, I can't take credit for this great idea. One of my co-workers came up with it!

                            

3. I hope everyone got to enjoy the TPT sale for Teacher Appreciation Week. I got some great units. I wanted so much more though :-(

           

4. In addition to my TPT shopping, last night I got to go to a Pampered Chef/Bridal Shower. Let's just say that it got to be a little expensive but everyone needs cookware right????

5. To finish off my week (in addition to all the sweet treats I got this week from my kiddos) my co-workers/friends surprised me with celebrating my birthday a month early. I was just so surprised. I never get to celebrate my birthday at work. These are the best cupcakes, Snickerdoodle (one of my friends made them)! They smell and taste so yummy!!!!

Well enjoy your weekend! Happy Mother's Day to everyone! Don't forget to link up!
