0 Presidential Persuasion Freebie

Happy Monday!  Wow – what a day!  Storm Sandy has left me exhausted – my kids were wild today!!  Of course, that could be the moon too!  I just hope my friends closer to the east coast and the storm stay safe.  It’s a great time to cuddle up under the blanket with a good book (or your laptop) and have a cup of coffee or cocoa.

In honor of Sandy, I’m posting an election freebie! This is a great graphic organizer for students to use to convince you why they would make a great president!

0 Dropping like Flies and Giveaways!

My students dropped like flies today! Seriously! I started the day with 20 students, by lunch I was down to 17, and by the end of the day 15! Most of you probably already know what happened….yes, STREP THROAT!! Ugh!

By the time I left my room, I had scrubbed and cleaned everything I could!!! I am not getting sick – I’m just not doing it! I don’t have the time or energy to waste! Nope, not doing it!

I can hardly remember what we did in class today because every time I turned around one of my babies was leaving! On a positive note, my kids LOVED watching I’m Just a Bill today. They were so excited and amazed to know that the President doesn’t make all the laws and that there are other people making decisions in the government. Yayyy!!! Hopefully they shared something new at home tonight – I love when they go home and tell their parents a new fact they learned. It makes them feel so important and successful.

On another great note – one of my bloggy friends is having a HUGE giveaway! Erin over at Tales from Room 112, is having a 200 follower giveaway!! She has over 50 products available! Ah-mazing!! And with 123 ways to enter she makes it SUPER easy!! Head over to her site and check out all of the great items she has.

Happy Tuesday my friends!

Wooo-hoooo!!! I can’t believe I finished my election unit – and in time for November! It is a HUGE unit and was an enormous undertaking, but I am so glad that I did it. My students are going to start it tomorrow and are looking forward to it (secretly, I am too!) There are 31 pages of activities to go along with Duck for President, So You Want to be President, and House Mouse, Senate Mouse.

Here is a sneak peak…
