Even though it snowed here yesterday, I'm thinking about spring. I made these bee activities for my math work stations. A few of my students still need to concentrate on numbers 1 to 10. I think these activities will help them solidify their counting skills.

I'm Elmo and I Know It
My own boys who are 8 and 11 love the "I'm sexy and I know it" song and I must admit it's a very catchy song. I recently came across this version that is more child friendly. I can't wait to show it in class on Monday. What do you think?

A Good Read: Tomorrow Girls series
Last night I thought I would take a break from doing some work. I hadn't really read a book in a while and the one I had going wasn't doing anything for me. I had picked up the Tomorrow Girls series by Eva Gray at Christmas and decided to give it a try. The story is set in the future when the world is at war. The books are about 4 girls that are sent to a boarding school for their protection. While there, the girls suspect that something is not right. There are 4 books in the series and each book is from the point of view of a different one of the girls. I really enjoyed the first book. I started and finished it last night. It grabbed my attention and kept it. I ended up staying up a little later than I normally do in order to finish it. Luckily I picked up all 4 books. I can't wait to started the second one tonight.
