On Saturday morning, we were up bright and early for Scholar's Bowl 2011. This competition was over Language Arts. Emma was Team Captain, which she loves to do. And here is Emma with her team - they won first place for 1st grade county wide!

Wouldnt you know that she answered the questions on fairy tales? Prince Charming, # of Dwarfs, what happens at the end - she knew it all.
Because she is stressed out easily she did not sleep much on Friday night. On top of that, she has a sore throat and was seriously cranky and crying the rest of the day. I am afraid that there is a bug trying to come into the house.
I went and bought my new furniture for my new room last week. I have to say that I love it! The Sheetrock people will be here on Monday (tomorrow) and they should be done on Wednesday. Then, all we like is flooring to be put down (which is going to be on Friday). I am so excited about my new space. The kids automatically asked where the TV is going - no T.V. area - and so they were a little sad about that. This room is a reading/talking/game room for us to have more space. Maybe I will do a picture post when it is all finished.
My host teacher gave me full rights to teach 2nd grade Science. I have never taught science before, so I have been researching this morning about what lessons to do. :/
Can I have some snow, please :) Maybe Wednesday night, after my sheet rock is up?
Can't wait to see your room!!! And have fun with science. . .how fun to plan your own lessons and follow through :) And NO snow Wednesday night. . .my kids missed CBS last week due to a delay. . .love how much they look forward to it! See ya round, I hope.
