Come On Over

As many of you know, I am staying home this year with my daughter, Raegan Phair. She is already 7 months old today. I can't believe how quickly she is growing up!
I try my best to continue blogging here with educational posts, but for now, most of my posts are over at my personal blog, The Mrs. & Co.
And if you have kids, make sure you head over and follow my blog, because I am giving away a pair of Freshly Picked moccasins for my birthday starting on Monday, March 2.
If you won, what color would you get for your babe?

Classroom Loves Linky

Today I am linking up with Primary Powers to discuss things "Classroom Loves".

First off I'll talk about what "I Love". I seriously can't get enough of these markers. Is it the smell? Is it the amazing, beautiful colors? I don't know, but they are my favorite. These could honestly go under "They Love" too because my student's LOVE when I let them smell the markers. I have caught them a few times with their noses against the anchor charts we make :)

Next up is something "they love". My students love using their "writer's eyes". I have a class set of 3D glasses with the lenses popped out. I teach my students what it means to look at their writing with "writer's eyes" at the beginning of the year and they get to use their glasses during independent writing time. It really helps them stay focused to!

One of my students favorite activities for Valentine's is my "Candy Measurement" activity and I love it because they get to practice measuring in such a fun way!

Come on over and link up on Primary Powers blog and read about other "Classroom Loves".
