Five for Friday

It's been a while since I've done a link up so here goes...

I had a great 27th birthday party on Sunday despite a lot of last minute cancellations. I also made several new recipes that turned out quite well!

 
 
My students practiced base ten skills while rotating between bones of different sizes. They absolutely adored the activity!
 
 
I made this awesome Dirt Cake Cemetery for our staff development meeting. Several people asked for the recipe - always a good thing!
 
 
A few tables turned into tents using sheets and a glow stick per child made for an awesome Reading Camp In today. Today was awards day at school, which means we don't get much of a break (ten minutes if we're lucky) since the special area teachers are needed for the awards ceremony. Knowing this, I tried to find something fun to fill our normal special area time. That's how our Reading Camp In was formed! The kids loved it!

 
I even dressed the part. :)
 
 
Today is the first day of November, which means the first day of NaNoWriMo (write a novel of 50,000 words in 30 days). I met my personal goal of 2000 words today, so I'm one happy writer!
 
 
How's your week been? Link up with Doodle Bugs and share all your fun!
