It's been WAY too long

Holy cow! I can't believe how long it has been since my last post. The beginning of the year has been crazy. My class has been kind of rough to say the least. Thankfully, some switching up should help the problem!

Here are some highlights from last week at Conferences. These turned out so cute! They referred to them as their twins! :)

 

We had just finished watching the last pitch to send our KC Royals to the World Series and a transformer blew! It was the first time I've ever done a conference in the dark! Hilarious! We were eventually cancelled but it was funny for my kids to be reading with cell phone lights!

Last.. I love KC! Go Royals!!

Monday Made it October

Yay! I love MMI and 4th Grade Frolics for hosting! Today's Monday Made it's are student projects!

First, is our conference project. This is the 2nd time I have used it and I love it! I got this idea last year on pinterest. Check it out here. Such a great idea and my kids love to be creative!

Here's what's included:

-Favorite Book & Info about it

-Math goals, strengths, and challenges

-Reading goals, strengths, and challenges

- 5 things I like about 5th grade

- Bucket list of 3 personal goals

-Scores from our testing

 



Didn't they turn out so CUTE?!

 

Creepy Contraction Houses: I love doing these in October. The teachers I student-taught with showed me this fun project! Simply get a Haunted House coloring sheet. Have student cut windows and doors so that they open partially. On the outside they put their contraction and on the inside they put the 2 words that make up the contraction. Love how festive these look!

 

That's it for today! Hopefully, later this week I will post my students' Explorer projects which turned out great!

1 day left until conferences! Can't wait to see more Monday Made its!
