Five for Friday Linky

I'm finally making a new post!  My life is has been crazy busy.........anyway it is time to link up with Doodle Bugs for Five for Friday. Here are my randoms from the past couple of weeks.

1. Our school district is a national finalist to be recognized as a  National District of Character. We had NSOC site evaluator visit our school. We will find out in May if we're named. The children displayed bees for the visit and wrote on the wings how they demonstrate good character in the classroom.

2. We are down to one week before state testing. In our classroom we are doing math, math, and more math. Here are our area and perimeter monsters.

3. We finished up our Metric Unit with a quiz. The children studied their flip books for the quiz. They turned out great! You can get the materials for the flipbook at my store if you are interested.

4. This is national poetry writing month. The children have read different types of poems and began writing their own. Kenn Nesbitt's Poetry for Kids is an awesome resource for poems and writing. The children in my class love his poems.

5. I will end with something I found on Pinterest that can apply to us as well as our children. I love this....

Have a great weekend everybody!
