Ready for Spring

The Monday after springing forward is tough. I hit a wall around 3 and gave in and took a nap around 6. Now I'm ready for the 3 hour Bachelor final episode! So I guess the big question of the night is ... Catherine or Lindsay?

Reading month is in full swing at our school! Last week we had a concert kick off.  The Detroit Police Officer's band, The Blue Pigs, preformed for our school.  The students and staff had a ball!  

We've even welcomed a few "Mystery Readers" already!  We have our "Mystery Readers" send 5 clues about themselves.  The kids then guess who it might be. It's great to have parents, grandparents, sisters, brothers, uncles, and aunts stop by for some reading fun.  You can find the letter in all of our Reading Month packs.  It's a huge hit.

This week we have our spring conferences.  It's always a stressful time for the sisters and I.  We have to have everything just perfect.  I saw this "Hey Girl" and couldn't resist!

Reading Month...it's coming FAST!

I can't believe it, but I am so excited that March is just around the corner.  I am excited that March is Reading Month and the kiddos really get into all of the activities that we have planned.  BUT, I am most excited for March because I HATE winter. (pretty pathetic for a Michigan girl :))  Spring and summer are my fave seasons and I can't wait for some warmer weather. 

This year we have created many units for March that will excite your students and make your jobs easier...how can you resist that, right?!

First of all, we have a fabulous March Madness unit.  This is sure to get your kids pumped up for the NCAA tourney and also keep 'em learning at the same time. 

We also have some packs that will organize a Reading Month unit for you with little to no work!  Each one also includes a Mystery Reader activity for parents that the kids and parents go wild for.
