Holy Crap.  I am out of the loop.

Well I made it under 250!  That is good, I guess.

I am trying to figure out if you can read this.

Ah well here I go with the explaining!
I am Currently:
Listening: to Ingrid Michaelson - Girls Chase Boys.  I love this song.  It is bouncy and fun.  I wish I could sing that high, but I can't so I mostly just mumble my way through it.  The other day though I had a student tell me that I look like her...or she looks like me....or what ever.
I don't see it! lol!!!
Ingrid

Me - I literally just took this picture.  Yes I am still in my pajamas. Yes it is 5 pm.  NO JUDGING! 

Anyway.

Loving.  I am loving my calendar this month!  Why? because the end of the school year is on it!  WAHHHHOOOOOOOOO!  I have had a really rough year so I am happy that it is almost done!

Thinking: I honestly have been super busy this weekend and am going to start planning for the week...after I am done with this post.  Needless to say monday may be my only really planned out day this week.  Ooops. 

Needing: a manicure.  I am going to Mexico in 10 days!  Woop Woop!  But my nails and toe nails look like garbage.  Minnesota winter is not nice to dry hands or feet!

SURPRISE:  since I was late to the party, and I have to plan I picked the person that was in the year that I was born from blogs that have already linked up!  SURPRISE Here's An Idea!  


I love all your anchor charts!  I think there are a lot of ELA teachers at my school that could use your blog for reference!  I know your blog is new so I hope you get some traffic!

Well that is about it!  Hopefully you have a super day!

Cheers,

Fractions decimals and percents

HI! I am actually Blogging!  That is crazy. We are getting prepared for a huge sale on TPT and So I thought I would let you know a little more in detail about one of my newest products. My students LOVED this activity.  I went to the store and bought "Fun Sized" bags of a very popular brand name candy coated chocolate candy. (If you look at the pictures you can probably figure out what it is :))  I also bought a bag of the "Mini" version of this particular candy!  Then I snagged a box of Dixie cups.  The idea of this activity is that students are to find the fraction/decimal/percent of each color in the bag of "Fun Sized" and the fraction/decimal/percent of the "Mini" versions. THEN.  Here is the kicker...they are to compare them to one another!  OH ingenious.  Many of my students were really confused on comparing .25 to 1/4.  Having the visuals of the candies helped them to grasp this concept!!!  Score!

Multiplication is for White People Chapter 1

By Unknown -
Part One: Inherent Ability 1. There Is No Achievement Gap At Birth One of the things I find myself constantly arguing is the fact that I am a white teacher in a not so white school.  I think I have heard (from the mouths of white people) “do you ever fear for your life?” more times than I would like to admit.  No I do not fear for my life.  I know where this is stemming from, the idea that black teenagers are somehow “more dangerous” than white teenagers.  Most of the time these types of comments are from folks who I believe to not be RACIST but, let's face it, they are pretty prejudice.  And there is a HUGE difference. (By the way…statistically speaking, look at school shootings and the demographics of the shooters.  Seems to me most of them are white, and in white neighborhoods.  I’m just saying.) In the first chapter of Lisa Delpit’s book “Multiplication is for White People," (MIFWP)  Delpit reminds us that children are not born with deficits in le
