InstaFriday!

Happy Friday! I am way excited for this blog post today. I have been following blogs and the people I follow always do cool blog link ups! So today I am participating in my first link up, INSTAFRIDAY!

life rearranged

We spent this last weekend at Tony's parents! I love going to their house because they have farm animals! (This city girl LOVES farm animals!) On Saturday we were going to go watch his little brother play football, but it rained ALL weekend. His game got cancelled so we went shopping around town. On Sunday we played in the puddles and took care of some fire ants at his parents house before we headed back home.


The rain gage was filled to the top! Tony's little brother is playing in the puddle, and those are my feet on the left. I took a pic of my wonderful footwear!


Fresh chicken eggs. Tony's mom has a few chickens, and we get to enjoy their eggs! Fresh eggs are sooooo much better!


This is Jeffrey. I love his coloring! I can't wait to see him grow up.

Not much has been going on at school.  Most people wonder how I teach three grade levels, but it's just every day life for me. My kids come in to the classroom in the morning, get out their "work plans," and get started on a work of their choice. While they are working on their jobs, I give lessons to small groups or individual students. In the afternoon my students have P.E.,  "Writer's Workshop," and Cultural work (Science & Social Studies). 


These are photos of some math work my kiddos completed. The top left picture is money.  The two red and blue boards are Strip Board addition. The colored beads are Multiplication Bead Layout. I love Montessori math materials! The lessons are so fun to give!

We got a new fish tank this week! The fish tank we had was 10 gallons. So we upgraded to a 20 gallon tank, and it loos AWESOME! We got a new shelf for it to sit on, and Tony put it together last night. He was like a little kid with Legos. The fish tank and stand look so much better than what we had before! 


I hope everyone has a great weekend! We are going to the State Fair, and who knows, maybe Baby Noah will decide to enter the world this weekend!
