Five for Friday

October 9, 2015

It seems like it took FOREVER for Friday to get here, but now that it’s here, my son decided to celebrate by waking up an hour earlier than normal.  Ugh!  I guess I’ll celebrate with another peek at five random things from my week.
October lends itself to studying the mystery genre so Cam and I are slowly becoming friends.  I managed to get book packs written for three books this week.
My daughter has been battling a fever and sore throat and had to miss a day of school this week.  She was disappointed.  Luckily her new Highlights magazine arrived in the mail with a brand new game to play!

 

When my daughter returned to school, she was greeted with this note from a friend at school who noticed she had been absent and missed her.  It melted my little heart!
I snuck in a little preview on my FB page about a project I’ve been working on for The Little books by Amy Krouse Rosenthal.  Thanks to a friend for testing out some of the writing pages with her kids, I was able to pair up the writing pieces with the crafts and now I can put the finishing touches on the pack and share it soon.
This one had me giggling.  Leave it to Junie B. to speak the truth about teachers.
I hope you have a great weekend!

    Your Cam Jansen packs look great. My daughter is just starting to read those. We also love Junie B. It's great when I hear my daughter laughing out loud while reading Junie B. books. My son had a fever and sore throat last week. No fun! Glad your daughter is feeling better. Can't wait to meet you once I get back to the PNW!

    Joya 🙂

    The Cam Jansen packs look great, Storie! Hoping your daughter is feeling better AND that you don't get it too! That's normally what happens here.

If you’re starting 2021 by making resolutions and setting goals with your students, I suggest sharing Squirrel’s New Year’s Resolution by Pat Miller. This book follows Squirrel around the forest as she learns what a resolution is and helps her friends get started on theirs. Swipe to see a kid craft you can pair with this story. I also have comprehension and vocabulary activities for this book. Just follow the link in my bio for more information.⁣

Winter is officially here! Have you had snow yet w Winter is officially here! Have you had snow yet where you live? We haven’t, but my kids are anxiously waiting. While we wait, it’s been fun to revisit our favorite snow day memories while reading Ten Ways to Hear Snow.⁣

In this story, Lina wakes up to a blanket of snow outside,  but she is supposed to help her grandma cook that day. Since Sitta is losing her eyesight, Lina rushes to bundle up and get over to her home. Lina wants to make sure her grandma is okay and knows about the snow outside. On the way, Lina explores the city muffled by snow and discovers ten different ways to hear snow. ❄️⁣

During one of the worst snow storms of the year, a little girl and her family settle in for the night. They build a fort by the fire and enjoy a picnic-style dinner. Later that night, the little girl makes a wish on her snow globe. The next morning the family wakes up to a winter wonderland outside. ⁣

Snow Globe Wishes has a great message about slowing down, enjoying the simple things, and bringing a community together. It would be perfect to share while getting cozy on cold, winter day!⁣

In this latest book, Danny’s headed to the water park with his family. Throughout the day, he’s faced with a lot of important decisions to make. Will he be fair and kind, show empathy towards others, keep himself safe, and take responsibility for his actions? That’s up to the reader to help Danny decide! ⁣

Growing up, I loved reading choose-your-own-adventure books because it was so much fun getting to decide how the story ended. Now my own kids get to experience that same reading magic with these Power to Choose books from Ganit and Adir Levy. My kids are bound and determined to read every single one of the 9 different endings.⁣

Have you read any of the Danny or Darla books yet? If so, do you have a favorite?⁣
