April Made It :)
I’ve been creating some things for my classroom again {finally}. It’s been a long……slow…………winter. It just bogs me down. Does it do that to any of you?
Here are a few things that I’ve made for my classroom:
We worked hard the week before spring break on Customary Measurement. When we return we will be working on the Metric System.
Here’s a preview…I haven’t added it to my store yet, but I will link it up as soon as I do: It is now available in my TpT store:
My students made these:
And they look so nice on what was a very empty bulletin board {gasp}!
At home, I finally sewed some curtains for the kitchen. It has been painted since October and I finally finished:
So there you have it.
Go check out all of the other creativity out there with my friend, Tara:





LOVED your Customary Lap Book!! We did it last week! :)Jiveyideas by jivey
I LOVE the flowers your students made! Those are adorable! Where did you get the idea? The Metric Lap Book looks great! Makes me wish I taught math (ALMOST;) )I just love reading other 4th grade bloggers posts! Thanks for sharing :)Amelia wherethewildthingslearn
Love the curtains! We have a similary window set up in our breakfast area and I've been trying to figure out what I want to do there. This would be perfect!MeganI Teach. What's Your Super Power?
We have a similar window where our table is too…I'd say that I should make some curtains, but that could end tragically- I should totally just hire you!! ;O) (because apparently you have too much time on your hands!!) just kidding!I can't wait to see the metric lapbook. I will BUY that one once it's linked up since you are way to generous and give so much away!! :O) Hope you rested over the weekend and are feeling better!Amanda
Elizabeth,I am intrigued by your flowers. What is written on the cards? I teach a K/1 combo and am thinking your art project might be a great way to link our studies in measurement and plants.CamilleP.S. I love reading your blog even though I teach a very different grade.
I LOVE that bulletin board – it is so colorful and cute! Your lapbook looks great too!JennDoodlingAroundin6thGrade
I was hoping you were going to make a Metric Lapbook, I was even going to ask you if you were – but I didn't want to seem pushy! I am so happy that you did! Your bulletin board looks great! Looking From Third to Fourth
Just stopping by as I'm always inspired by your cute creations! I would be honored if you would assist me in my upcoming giveaway. I'm planning to celebrate my birthday month and gaining 200 blog followers! If you're able to contribute, please shoot me an email at rivas423@gmail.com with a snapshot of your product and/or your blog button so I can send them over to visit your page as well! Anything end-of-the-year, May-themed, or just stinkin' cute would be great!:)Antonia @ forkin4th
Yay! I'm soooo excited to see your new measurement lapbooks. My students LOVE these. Thanks so much!JenniferMrs. Laffin's Laughings
Yes!! The winter totally bogs me down. But I think I've mentioned this to you…about a zillion times, right? I adore that bulletin board and I'm pinning it in a moment. I hope you're feeling better dear Elizabeth!
Love the curtains! Such a nice touch! And that BB is super cute!JoanneHead Over Heels For Teaching
Oooo, I say laminate those flowers and have the kids write a note to their moms on the back and … voila … a Mothers' Day gift! Adorable as always!Barbara
So cute!
OK-I'm loving that pool out your kitchen window! :)Shannonhttp://www.irunreadteach.wordpress.com
Thanks, Jessica!
I knew I needed something for my bulletin board that was generic enough to get us through testing week in May and I thought flowers were perfect. I couldn't find what I wanted on TpT, so I made my own 🙂 I'm going to post them later this week!
Thanks, Megan! I was worried about the pattern, but it turned out pretty nice 🙂
That's so sweet, Amanda! It's available in my store, now 🙂 I'm feeling much better now and ready to take on Spring Break!!!!
My students wrote about measurement (since that is what we are learning right now) and I put a title on the board about it. I'm going to be posting about that soon…..stay tuned 🙂
Thank you, Jenn 🙂
Push away….it might motivate me more 😉
I'll check it out soon.
You are welcome 🙂
Haha…I know, I know. Winter be gone!!! I'm feeling so much better today. Thanks for checking on me 🙂
Thanks, Joanne 🙂
Thanks, Barbara! And great idea 🙂
Thanks, Emily!
Thanks, we do, too! Right now it's toooooo cold for it, though. But come June…ahhhh 🙂
Love the new curtains!! Also, I have been trying to convince my principal we need to come and observe your math set-up. (She's not buying it) But I think one of my teachers is interested in doing it with guided math groups!! Enjoy your week off!!
I LOVE your measurement lapbook! The curtains look awesome. It makes me wish I had learned to sew. I'll admit I used hot glue to hang the curtains in my classroom and make a hem on them. Sad, I know.Enjoy the rest of your week!KristaStellar-Students
