Pop!

Time for a pop of color and a crafty post since it's been a while! 

The colors in this card make me happy.  My friend Kathy has an amazing relative who sends her this magazine.  I'm not huge into decorating but I love perusing the magazine for color schemes and patterns.  This advertisement was the inspiration for my card.

Hope your day is just a little bit brighter!

Redeemed

Back in my good books (as if she had ever left them)...

The giver of the water scorpian redeemed herself by bringing me an apple! :)

What happened to the good old apple for the teacher?

What ever happened to the beautiful time honored tradition of placing an apple on your teacher's desk?  In my classroom, it's been replaced by an ugly water scorpian placed lovingly on your teacher's desk. 

NICE!  Way to give your teacher a heart attack!

Is this because I rejected the fruit and sent it packing way back during Teacher's Appreciation Week of 2008?  Oh if only I could have that banana back!

Don't Say You Weren't Warned

I love the little writing gems I find when it's report card time.

Super Readers

It's Spirit Week here at Sahel Academy!  Monday was Heros and Villains day.  We started an author study on Eric Carle so my first & second grade writers were reading and exploring Eric Carle books in their costumes.  What better time to amuse myself taking pictures!
