Long Time No See!!

In the words of Junie B. Jones "Wowie wow wow!" It has been such a long time! Where in the world did the month of November go? I can't believe that Thanksgiving is in ONE WEEK! I feel like I have slept the month away, at least since Daylight Savings! I still have not adjusted and my body tells me that it's bedtime when it gets dark! We are however, still alive in Room 108! Check out a little of what we've been doing!!!

 A former student of mine decided to name her stuffed elephant after me. I was flattered! Had to get a picture of my namesake! ;)
 "It's yo birthday, it's yo birthday!!" Same day! Happy Birthday Kaden and Hadden!!!!
 Domino Math!



I donated a book to our classroom from the Book Fair!!
We LOVE Splat!!! Thanks Autumn!!!

Here's another cool rhyming book for the classroom!!








Quote of the week!
2 students got to eat lunch with me on Monday for "Caught Being Good" drawings!
Student A: I love playing with Lalaloopsy dolls!! They are so cute!
Ms. Searles: Oh really? I was crazy about Barbies as a little girl!
Student B: *WAS focused on eating, but ears perked up at my comment* YOU'VE GOT ME TALKIN'!!!!!

:) Not a day goes by without these 1st graders wowing me, making me laugh, and giving me that sense of PRIDE! I am one lucky teacher!<3
