Kidd's Ring

A Primary student had a birthday this past Monday. Now, she keeps referring to her birthday as her happy birthday. If she shows a present, it's from her happy birthday. If she talks about the party, she talks about her happy birthday party! So funny! I have a window in my classroom that is more like a whole wall - it's soo wonderful! You see right out to the busy street and subway station, so there's lots to observe. A student was looking out one day and says, "It's like a TV." And then we laughed about turning it off with an invisible remote. :) One day, I walked into 1st grade wearing pin striped pants and a blue sweater with a matching necklace and one of the girls says, "Wow! You look beautiful!" It made my day!

...I'm a juice-aholic! ;) Can you tell?

My friend told me about Book Sneeze. You sign up and agree to write a review on a book and post it on a blog and a consumer website. You then get to decide what book you want and they send it to you for free (even if you live overseas!) and you get to keep the book! I decided to try it out. This week, I got my first book and am starting a new blog just for book reviews. Here's the link . Let me know if anyone wants to try it! :)

This week we read and wrote animals riddles in 2nd grade. Here is one of them. Apparently, my eyelashes are like a horses! Not sure if that's a good or bad thing! lol Here are two cute stories - enjoy! * After being called Miss Kidd by one of my first graders, another one says: "You tricked him!" Yes, the only reason I changed my name was to trick people! lol * My third graders were drawing missing parts to animals and the fish was missing his fins. When I informed the one student that she was missing fins on her fish, she said, "I don't know this. I only find fish on the plate!" :)
