Welcome to Fun in Room 4B!
OK, bare with me. This is a rambly-kinda-post but I have so much to talk about and only one post a day??? First: I WON!! Misty over at Think, Wonder & Teach had a give away for this: Yes! It is THE pencil sharpener. You know, the one created by Troy. It’s The Quietest Classroom…
So this is how my morning started. No alarm. Do I really need to say more? Not really. But I will….’cause it’s that CrAzY! So, my husband wakes me up at 7:00. I normally LEAVE THE HOUSE at 7:00! What? Jump up in a tizzy. I had not set my alarm. I got a full…
Can you guess what skill we are working on this week? I’m so witty. Not really…maybe a little punch-drunk. Anyway. Here’s a freebie for you. It’s a word document so that you can change the book example to work for you. I’ve read several Laura Numeroff’s books to teach cause and effect. I’ve got quite…
I’ve been as pleased as punch with my Math Rotations. I’ve been implementing this “way of teaching” now for about a month and feel like I’ve worked out the kinks. Mostly. If you want to know about why I tackled math first, read THIS post. Basically, I thought that if I could master math rotations…

Considering the recent weather in the mid-west, I’m so glad we made the right decision for many reasons. Among the safety reasons, I was also able to clean a…
Wow, it’s another month already? I can’t believe it…where has the time gone. Yet, when’s Spring Break, people? Commmmon (That’s come on with sarcasm.) Love these. If you have never hooked up with Farley’s Currently, you need to…it’s a great way to connect with other like-minded folks. And when I say “like-minded” I mean just…
I had a few requests to show how I made the foldable for the geometric solids and nets. I thought the best way to do this was to do a pictorial play-by-play, if you will. I always learn best with pictures. Isn’t this why Pinterest is such a phenomenon? By the way, I give you…
OMG~ Look! I have been waiting for, anticipating, stalking the UPS man all week. It was so bad that when my son got a package on his birthday, I was disappointed. What a terrible mother I am. Oh well. You win some, you lose some in the mothering category. Epic fail. Finally, yesterday she…
If you didn’t know already, Teaching Blog Addict (one of the very FIRST blogs that I started stalking) has now created pin boards for all of us who are addicted to pinning, too. I just love TBA! One of my favorite features is their Freebie Friday posts. Who doesn’t love a freebie? It is a…
