Christopher's Graduation

My oldest son Christopher graduated from Basic at Ft. Benning and just got stationed to Ft. Riley.

This is the moment I got to hug my boy after the ceremony.  So dang proud of him.  My students  missed me while I was there, but this was something I couldn't miss.  The first three days I was absent in 3 years.  I hate writing sub plans, but so worth it.

Inherited Traits...and Prepositional Phrase Poem

Inherited Traits and Learned Behavior  

We had so much fun creating our Dr. Seuss blended creatures, that I decided to integrate them with our language skill this week.

We are studying prepositions and prepositional phrases.  The students created seven prepositional phrases about their creature.

Dr. Seuss is my favorite one.
