Currently... November

It's once again time to link up with Farley over at Oh' Boy Fourth Grade for...

Be sure to hop on over to read what's currently going on in the bloggy world!

HERE GOES MINE...

I'm not really LISTENING to the TV at all. It's just on in the background and HGTV "House Hunters" was on the last time I tuned in. When I do stop playing working on the computer I've been glued to the set watching "The Walking Dead" on Netflix... sigh... am I really watching this show?

I am LOVING this year's sixth graders! They are just the sweetest bunch! I'd been out sick for two days this week, and they have sent the nicest messages to me on Facebook, some via their parents and older siblings and some themselves. Here's their goofy shot Halloween picture to make me smile and feel better.

Parent conferences are on Thursday afternoon/early evening. I am THINKING about them: THINKING how important they are, THINKING how much I enjoy talking with my students' parents, and THINKING there needs to be a better system for communicating with them instead of this mass role call... ah, if only I were in charge! LOL!

I can't wait... I am WANTING Thanksgiving break to be here pronto! We have from the Wednesday before through the Monday after free from classes. This is our first time off since Labor Day (I did have two days off being sick, but that does NOT count), and I have so much to do around the house that I can NOT wait!!!!!!!!

I am definitely NEEDING to get rid of this cough! It has caused me to miss two days of school and two nights' worth of sleep! ENOUGH already!

A YUMMY PIN... oh yeah! How 'bout an EASY, YUMMY PIN? Just dump a few ingredients in the crock pot and VOILA! Instant YUM! Here's the link to my pin (part of it got cut off in the Currently graphic above): http://www.pinterest.com/pin/188588303119460474/

And finally... I've CURRENTLY been working on lots of classroom activities to use for skill practice during the holiday seasons (Halloween through Christmas). I just finished this Thanksgiving SCOOT activity before typing this post. For today only, for just my blog followers, I am offering it as a FLASH Freebie!

I love to know who visited and who might be using my items in their classrooms... thanks!

Happy Teaching,
