Christmas is almost here!

I can't believe that Christmas is right around the corner! This year has gone by way too fast! I'm loving my latest Pinterest craft, and I want to share it with you...

I made the chalkboard and it has become the center of my house. My friends look forward to coming over and seeing the newest quote. As the year goes on, I change the bow to match the season or holiday. I have seen people put these over their beds, which would be very fun too!

Happy Holidays... Hopefully I will have more crafts to share in the near future!

Election Unit - Day 4 Recap

Today I presented the Presidential Candidates to my second graders. I was really worried that the information would be over their head. I was also worried that they were too little to care. While I presented my lesson, as seen below, the kids were SUPER engaged. They were all over learning about the issues. I did not prepare an activity for them just because of my worries of them understanding. But I was wrong! THEY LOVED IT! The other 2nd grade class came and joined us too. When I was done teaching I paired them up and had them discuss their thoughts. And goodness, their thoughts and opinions where AMAZING. They were having full on adult discussions! It was amazing. I hope that you can inspire you kids to be educated voters like I did.

Best of luck!

GO VOTE! :)

Election Unit - The Candidates

Need a way to teach your kiddos about the candidates? Here it is! You can find the full presentation on my TpT page!

I am so excited to teach my kids about who is running! I hope that this lesson will inspire my kids to be independent thinkers when it comes to voting. :)

Please enjoy and share with your colleagues! 

Happy Voting!
