Eggstravaganza!

We did all things Easter/eggs related today!

We started off by creating our own Egg Venn Diagrams using adjectives to describe them.  We did this as a class first a couple of days ago but it was time to see if they have grasped the compare and contrast concept as well as using adjectives to describe.

Here is another look at our class Venn Diagram!

Here is a look at some student samples!  They are quite the artists!  If only some of them would put in the effort on their spelling! :-)  We're getting there!

For some of our literacy time and most of our math time, I had "Easter Basket" time.  I once again found and AWESOME Easter unit online and was able to print, laminate, cut, and sort everything out pretty quickly.  Each tub has one literacy activity and one math activity.  Four students are assigned to one tub and do one activity and fill out the coordinating recording sheet to hold them accountable.  Then, they move onto the next one, do the activity, fill out their sheet, and get their tub packed up!  Seems pretty simple right??  That is until they seem to completely forget things that we have done all year....  Between this week and next, they will have a chance to check out all 6 tubs.

Super cute & cheap buckets from Wal Mart.

I placed everything inside the bucket that is needed.  The only thing they have to bring is a pencil.

And last but least---some super eggcellent workers!

Have a great and hopefully extended weekend!  We will be laying low and won't be running around like chickens with our heads cut off so it has to be an awesome weekend! I will certainly be thanking the Big Man upstairs for all of the blessings in my life! Travel safe if you are heading out to see family and friends!
