the tattooed teacher: A Peek at my week {don't hate!}

I'm linking up with DeeDee again this week to share my plans!

If you saw last week's, well we are still wrapped up in penguins! We will finish up tomorrow.

as you can see, I have a 2 day week! Ah, sometimes having a calendar that meets the demands of high school exams is so sweet! There are a few freebies in here too, and I'll link them up later on! My groups will not be meeting with me this week since I am benchmarking, so there's some independent work in here, which they need desperately.

On Wednesday we will be nestled in our jammies for Snowed in at School day! You can read more about past ones here. This is something we've done in our grade level for the past 4 years. The whole day, we focus on all things snow. And this year it coincides with our weather unit perfectly. I love when that happens. I pick and choose things from the unit each year, and since I am benchmarking, we won't get to a few favorites. We will have our read-in with flashlights and mittens in the am. They will choose their favorite book and make the snowman book review (my favorite activity in the unit!)

After math, during science time we will be doing a whole group close read using Nicole's Snow Science article then making the craft to go along with it! It's perfect!

And at the end of the day we will make snowman bagels. Because I love bagels. I also love cream cheese. and kids love Cheetos. So we are all happy!
