Well it is that time again! Join me in linking up with Farley over at Oh' Boy 4th Grade.

 

I just love to watch "Friends".  I have seen them all hundreds of times and most of the time I can say the lines right along with the gang. Lame, huh? But I LOVE it! My husband is an also bluegrass guitar player and I love hearing him play. :) Everyone say a prayer for our testing next week. I know my kiddos will do fine, but we would love the extra support. Thanks in advance! As for my "super power", if I had a button that I could press to instantly clean and straighten up my house, classroom, vehicle, and anything else that may need to be put in order, my life would be SOOO much easier. But then, wouldn't everyone's? :)

I have been a little slack in my posts this week. I have been super busy and my daughter hasn't napped at the right times. I know, I know excuses, but we all have them! Here are some pictures of some of the things we have been doing this week:

Anchor Charts for Figurative Language

Hope you enjoy! Next, week we begin our ARMT+ testing. Ugghhh! The bright side is that we will be able to do fun stuff in the afternoons! Hopefully, lots of fun pictures will be coming. ;)
