Taking it back a bit to share a Fall idea...I was looking through photos and remembered the activity

Back in the Fall I took my class on a Fall Walk in the park next to our school.  I gave them each a Ziploc bag and told them to collect things that are signs of fall.  Such as colored leaves, acorns, etc.  When we came back to the classroom we read Leaf Man by Lois Ehlert.  Then, I had my students create a leaf creature by arranging and gluing down some of their findings.  After making their creature, animal, or person they had to write a story about it.  They turned out so cute and much better than I had expected.  I know it is almost Spring now but when I saw this in my picture album on my computer as I was flipping through I just had to share it while it was on my mind.  Save the idea and use it next Fall if you like it.

New kid on the blog

I am so excited to be the new kid on the Blog.  I have been wanting to start a blog for a while now and I finally had a little time to get one going.  However, I am very new to this and don't know how to attach my documents to share and stuff like that just yet, but I am learning thanks to tutorials on YouTube.  So...bare with me as I learn while I go!  I hope for my blog to be a place to share ideas with other teachers and learn from one another.
