Five for Friday

What have you been up to this week? I’m linking up with Doodle Bugs Teaching to show you a few snapshots of my week!

I don’t have pictures of what we spent 90% of our time doing, however.  It was state testing week and I can’t show you any pictures of testing.  The directions were very, very clear about that.

First up, remember how I told you that winning TOY didn’t seem real until it was in black and white on the marquee?  Well, I had to take a picture in front of it to prove it to myself:

It still seems weird.  But weird in a good way.

May?  Where did the time go?  Do you see how that calendar is covering two cabinet doors?  My teaching bud, Charlene, came up with that idea and it is G.E.N.I.U.S. 🙂  We have very little wall space (triangle-shaped rooms…don’t get me started).  So this is a great way to use cabinet doors.  I sliced the calendar in two with an Exacto knife.  It’s perfect and has lasted all year without getting torn.
My next three pictures are all about Teacher Appreciation!  Look at what one of my sweeties made for me before the Teacher of the Year news:

And look at all of the beautiful creations from my students this week:

And, this morning, one of my little friends brought me this:

Cute, huh?

So there you have it…the other 10% of my week.  How was your week?

  1. Congratulations on your award!!!! That's so exciting! We are testing for the next two weeks :-/ and we have to put signs up outside of our classrooms that say “No electronic devices allowed beyond this point”…. because we're all just dying to take pictures of “The Test”, right!?!?! Have a great weekend!Soaring Through Second

  2. Mehdi, I'm almost good I heard that Bale acquired a lot fat for Batman that they were contacting him “Fatman” on set and he needed to cut a great deal of excess weight to look proper on digicam. He had acquired a considerable quantity of body fat in addition when he gained all of that excess weight back. He was definitely in a position to reduce some fat right after that, but would you consider it will be feasible to create bodyweight gains like that rather than gain a great deal of body fat in the procedure? Like could a person acquire 40 pounds of lean muscle mass and become ripped with no gaining, say, 60 pounds 1st then shedding the flab, in that amount of your time? And not steroid assisted, of course. I'd like to hear your consider on it.Also visit my blog gain muscle but not fat
