<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The 2013-2014 school year is off to a fantastic start! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: CCCrazyTown; font-size: 14px; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">My new group of “Littles” have brought so many smiles to my face already! They are eager and ready to learn! The first couple of weeks in school, the weather was HOT~HOT~HOT and the last few days have been WET~WET~WET! Needless to say, our little classroom flooded twice in 24 hours. But we are tough and have been goin' with the flow (no pun intended).</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Hi Friends! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Yes, it's been a while. I've been wondering about the saying "time flies"...just where does it fly? I'd really like for it to make a long layover here. Or even get caught up in bout of bad weather to at least slow it down. Time. I really could use more of it. I have things to start and finish. I have people to see. I have things to clean and organize. Bottom line, I really just need more time! {sigh}</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Speaking of flies, my sweet friend Alessia Albanese {I PUFFY heart this girl} of <a href="http://mrsalbanesesclass.blogspot.com/">Mrs. Albanese's Kindergarten Class</a> and I have teamed up once again and created a Creepy Crawlies unit. This unit is full of literacy, math, and science activities and is sure to be educational and fun!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">So<i> fly</i> on over and pick up your copy. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">How many of you get Monarch Butterflies? </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Well if you do, here is a simple and cheap way to make a </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">comfortable and pretty home for them.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Here's what you'll need:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">2 durable large paper plates</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">1-2 yards of tule</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">pretty spring ribbon</span></div>

It took 7 months to completely repair the plumbing, fix and freshen up the restrooms, epoxy the floors, re-buld the bar, and CLEAN (ugh, the place was a mess from top to bottom!). But we finally finished. The grand opening was last week and has been pretty busy since (the snow storm didn't even keep people away). </span></span></div>

Shuna Patterson from <a href="http://pocketfullofkinders.blogspot.com/2013/03/task-card-tuesday-on-wednesday-and-cvc.html">Pocket Full of Kinders</a> created this fantastic goodie of a center. Blending Strips! Pure AWESOMENESS here!!! I opted to print them in black&white to save on my ink. So I gave them magnet letters to have the letters they needed to add pop out at them. They worked together and hard to make CVC words! Thanks Shuna!</div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Of course they all wanted to munch on the candies. So I made them a deal. I told them they could eat them on one condition....they had to write the phrase on each heart as they ate them. Boy, my Littles put the pencil to the paper and wrote each and every phrase! Impressive!!! It was oh so cute listening to the giggles and the eeews when they came across the hug and kiss words. They are just too cute! </span></div>

The kids had SO.MUCH.FUN. using Marsha Mcguire's <a href="http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/I-Spy-Prehistoric-Dinosaur-Sight-Words-Common-Core-Differentiated-Fun">I-Spy Prehistoric Sight Word</a> activity! We used the first two mats which are the first two Dolce word lists. I can't wait to introduce the next two lists next week! They used magnifying glasses to search for words throughout the work mats. Any you know, anytime to give kids magnifying glasses there is fun (and learning) to be had!</div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We (Christopher and I) spent Christmas day flying to Florida for the Disney Showcase Tournament. Our boys were 1-1-1. Even though they didn’t take the tourney, it was a great opportunity to showcase talent in front of over 230 college coaches and play at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex.</span></span></div>

Each night it sends me a reminder to jot down my “gratitudes” or “happies” from that day. I read that if you write down, even the simplest of gratitudes from each day, it increases the positive endorphins in the brain that keep us happy. So, go get your happy on! :)</span></span></div>

<div style="font-family: Pinwheel; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">I jumped out of bed this morning at 5:30 and ran to the window anticipating the ground to be covered and flakes to be falling...very slowly I pulled the shutters open just enough to get a tiny peek. And what to my wondering eyes should appear???</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Pinwheel; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Pinwheel; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">NOT A SINGLE SNOWFLAKE HAD HIT THE GROUND!!! Oh, the disappointment that I felt. I mumbled and stumbled and I cursed the meteorologist. There was nothing left to do except get ready for school...so I did.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Pinwheel; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Pinwheel; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">I continued to sulk as I made my way to the kitchen to get my morning cup of goodness. I peeked out again just hoping to see even the tiniest of flakes falling. At this point ANYTHING would make me happy! And I smiled. A huge smile. In a matter of thirty minutes the sky had dropped nearly two inches of white, fluffy, beautiful snow!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Pinwheel; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;">

<div style="font-family: Pinwheel; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">The kids came in snow-crazy {which I love}!!! Red little cheeks and noses, clomping down the steps in boots that swallow them. SO.EXCITED.FOR.SNOW!</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Apparently the forecasters have predicted that we’re in for a pretty sizable snow storm here in Colorado. Which means one of two things:</span></div>
<ol>
<li style="font-family: Pinwheel; margin: 0px; text-align: center;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">the weather man is spot on and here in the Denver area, we will receive the predicted amount of 4-8 inches of snow. Or...</span></li>

<div style="font-family: 'Print Bold'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Antonio has been working wonders in Room 5! That is since the sad letter he left on Wednesday. The kids came in so Pius {fitting since we are St. Pius X School}. They didn’t have a hard time finding him on Thursday. He was happily zip-lining but stuck right over my table. Oh how the kids were terribly concerned that I might accidentally bump into him and then POOF his magic would be gone.</span></div>

</div>
<div style="font-family: 'LD Simple'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Antonio has been in Room 5 now for a total of 3 days. It didn’t take too long for a sad, tearful, poor little elf. </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">When they arrived this morning they immediately searched the room for Antonio to make sure he didn’t run to Santa and ask to be re-assigned.</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">It didn’t take them long to spot him sitting right on top of the learning cart.</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">How could you miss the huge finger pointing at this sad note and Antonio?</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">I read it aloud...there was silence.</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">You could have heard a pin drop.</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'LD Simple'; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><br /></span>
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Let's just say the previous day was not such a fantastic day. So, the candy that grew from the “magic seeds” that Antonio left on the first day, stayed firmly planted in the container of “magic dust”. The Littles were sad, but most of them knew why. It was interesting to hear them verbalize just what happened throughout the day. I told them that they really needed to try to use kinder words with each other, be good helpers, follow instructions, etc. Bottom line it was a BAD.DAY!</span><br />
<div>
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><br /></span></div>
<br />
<div style="font-family: 'LD Simple'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">One Little said, “Ms. Solano, I know why the note is not in color like his first one.”</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">{I was a little nervous because I printed this at school, no color printer here}</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">I said “Hmmm, I didn’t even notice this.</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">But I am interested in hearing why you think this.”</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">She said “It’s because he’s sad and when I’m sad I don’t feel very colorful.” {WHEW and WHAT!?!</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">This child is for sure a deep thinker!</span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"> </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">LOVE IT!</span></div>

</div>
<div style="font-family: 'LD Simple'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Everyone, I’d like you to meet Antonio the Elf. Yes, Antonio has been assigned by Santa himself to keep watch over the Littles in Room 5. When the kids walked into the classroom on Monday morning, it took my Littles nearly 25 minutes before noticing Antonio sitting on the step reading to his polar pals. After that, it was utter mayhem in our class.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: 'LD Simple'; letter-spacing: 0px;">Antonio was sitting on this note.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="font-family: 'LD Simple'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">During rest time Antonio sent me a text message...I know what you’re thinking...How on earth did Antonio the Elf get Ms. Solano’s phone number, right? I’ll let you in on a little secret. Ready for it? He’s full of North Pole magic.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'LD Simple'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">{it was really my sweet hubby ~ I asked him to send a text and I changed his contact name to Antonio the Elf. This way, I was able to show my readers the name and they read it out loud for the class}</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'LD Simple'; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="font-family: 'LD Simple'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Okay, back to the text message. It said something like “You are all very good sleepers! Your bodies and brains need rest so you can learn as much as possible! I’m leaving you some magic seeds to plant in the container that is filled with magic dust. Tomorrow when you get to school, a special treat will have grown for you to enjoy.”</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">YAY! I’m back. It seems like forever since I’ve posted. Let’s see, there was Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Las Vegas Tournament, Cyber Monday, Pizza, and a funeral for a dear friend’s dad.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Let’s get down to business. Christopher and I spent our Thanksgiving in Las Vegas for a Showcase Tournament. My sweet hubby stayed back for work {he has a very big adventure in front of him...more on that later} So, I was one of four parent chaperones on the trip. They all nominated me to be “the boss” of eighteen 16/17 year old boys...on the strip. Turned out, our boys were well behaved and had a great night out.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">This is my kindergarten picture. Eons ago. I adored my teacher, Mrs. Reising. Good times were had! We had a big read carpet where we would gather and she played the piano, we finger painted, and had a to-die-for home center. Mrs. Reising, (I know you’re in heaven) THANK YOU! I became a teacher because of you!!!</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">The week after Thanksgiving and before Advent and all things Christmas, I do a Pizza Unit. I love pizza! We had a great time this week. All activities here (and then some) can be found in my unit. We will be making our pizza on Monday. I didn't think I would get the sub ever again if I put this on her plate on a Friday afternoon.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">The week before Thanksgiving my high school and college roommate called with the news that her father had been put in hospice. We immediately jumped in the car. Growing up, this man was always around to drive us to the mall, to the movies, or would bring us pizza when we were cramming for exams. My friend’s son and Christopher are also the same age, so he was like a second grandpa. It was a hard day.</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Pinwheel; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">I explained to my kiddos that I would be out for the afternoon because I had to go to a funeral. One little sweetie came up to me and this was our conversation: </span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Sweetie: “Ms. Solano say it again, what is a funeral?”</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Pinwheel; text-align: left;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Me: “When someone dies people gather at the church to celebrate that special person.”</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Pinwheel; text-align: left;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Sweetie: “So will he ever come back?”</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Pinwheel; text-align: left;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Me: “No honey, he’s in heaven with God watching over us now.”</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Pinwheel; text-align: left;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Sweetie:...after a long pause with confusion in her voice... “Hmmm, that’s really not good.” </span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">She gently tapped my arm and skipped back to her table.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Our classroom aid was out all week so I kept our centers pretty low key. I managed two centers and the other eight were very independent. I must say that my Littles are very good when it comes to showing responsibility.</span></div>

<div style="font-family: Pinwheel; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">This was our big activity of the week. We read two different versions of the fable and compared them (I made a venn diagram, but forgot to take a picture). After reading the story, we went outside and searched for a small smooth stone. I had several families bring vegetables to add to our soup. Before recess we worked together and added all of the yummy vegetables to the crockpot (they watched as I chopped). We put the stone in and let the soup cook all morning. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: Pinwheel; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">(yes, I washed the stone with hot soapy water before adding it)</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">I really had anticipated getting this posted over the weekend. But it snowed here. Not much, but enough to play outside with my niece. Then we made pumpkin bread and watched the Wizard of Oz. I love hanging out with my sweet niece!</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Last week we began our Native American unit. With the wonky schedule we have this year, it’s really hard to get everything in {I know you all feel that way too}. So during centers my Littles beaded their pattern necklaces and made really cool Native American pictures with our magnetic pattern blocks {pictures below}.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'Noteworthy Light'; text-align: -webkit-auto;">We also did the Number Fun activity from this packet. I know this is a back to school pack. And, I did the activity at the beginning of the year in small groups with my Littles to get an idea of number sense. But what a great assessment tool {you know, since report cards are right around the corner}. So I put it in a center and they worked <b>independently</b> on it. I was very impressed how well they did! </span></div>

<div style="font-family: 'KG Ten Thousand Reasons'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">So as I am laying here wide awake on a Sunday at 5:55 am {my internal clock knows it’s really 6:55 and is having nothing to do with the Tom Foolery of trying to go back to sleep}, I checked my phone and there was a notification from my <a href="http://www.bloglovin.com/">BLoglovin</a> app. You must give this a try....all you do is load the app, plug in your favorite blogs, and WHAM, you’ll get a notification when your favorite bloggers post. Amazing!</span></div>

<div style="font-family: 'KG Ten Thousand Reasons'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Deedee Wills and Greg Smedley are teaming up for a great giveaway! Those of you that are familiar with Deedee, know that she is just {for lack of a better term} a super star! She has helped me out so much this year with my setting up and managing my centers, I can’t even begin to tell you how wonderful the transition has been!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'KG Ten Thousand Reasons'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">I just found Greg of Smedley’s Smorgasboard of Kindergarten through Mrs. Wills Kindergarten blog. Literally, within the last 30 minutes. I plan on taking time later today to go back through Greg’s previous posts. He is hilarious, a HOOT, a kick in the pants!!! Laughing out loud before 6 am~great way to start the day!!!</span></div>

<div style="font-family: 'KG Ten Thousand Reasons'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Fall break is coming to end. Which in all honesty is probably a good thing too. For a couple of reasons. The first being the evil DVR! Seriously, it's the DVR's fault that my “to do” list....really didn’t get done : ) Second, when I'm home, I bake therefor I EAT, and eat, and eat.....The DVR + food = a very bad thing!</span></div>

<div style="font-family: 'KG Ten Thousand Reasons'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Any way, back to the DVR. A couple of weeks ago I watched an episode of Treme and was hooked. On Demand makes it waaaaaaaay to convenient to "watch what you want~when you want". Needless to say I download the ENTIRE series. And watched the ENTIRE series. Excellent show! I found some great new music to add to my very eclectic music library. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'KG Ten Thousand Reasons'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">And added a visit to New Orleans (anytime really, but during Mardi Gras would be fantastic) to my bucket list.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'KG Ten Thousand Reasons'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">While I watched I created </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">and posted my newest unit to TpT. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'KG Ten Thousand Reasons'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">It's right around 185 pages of pure cheesy goodness!!! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'KG Ten Thousand Reasons'; text-align: center;">

<div style="font-family: 'KG Ten Thousand Reasons'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Other than that, I cleaned out some of the closets in the house, made a couple of trips to the Goodwill both to drop off and also to see what treasures they had to offer. Met my bestest cousin in the world for Thai, and made a visit Lakeshore for their splendiferous sale. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'KG Ten Thousand Reasons'; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">(Yes, splendiferous is a real word...it was Dictionary.com’s word of the day)</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">As we get back school, I have some fun planned for us. I send home this Save Tom the Turkey activity each year for families to complete together. If you would like the PDF files for the turkey & the family letter leave a comment and I’d be happy to send them to you. (I can’t get Google Docs to cooperate with me right now...grrrrr)</span></div>
