Five For Friday - With a Freebie!

Woo Hoo!  Friday, Friday, Sweet Friday!  It has been a looong week for me, so I am happy, happy, happy that it is finally Friday!  And... time to link up with Doodle Bugs Teaching for Five for Friday!

I started my week with this awesome Dollar Tree Haul.  I have a lot of great ideas in store for my kiddos next week.

Of course I will post about them as we use them!

And speaking of the Dollar Tree, while I was there I found these great writing process and editing posters (it was a 2 pack for $1).  I normally make a lot of my own posters (or buy them on TpT), but for $1 and a lot less hassle, I thought why not?  Plus the kids Loved them! (They are actually poster size even though they look small in the picture).

Our reading responses are getting a whole lot better thanks to our What Does Good Work Look Like lesson.  I will be sharing how the pictures translated to their writing next week.

And, fractions got a whole lot sweeter when we practiced Finding Equivalent Fractions with Hershey's Kisses.

I simply wrote fractions on the undersides with a sharpie, and they had to find the match.

I posted this picture of my students using their multiplication factors on Instagram, and they were a huge hit!  With my students and the teachers who follow me on Instagram! Here is the link to print them out - and it is a FREEBIE! They are pretty self explanatory to use, but I will be writing a full post about them on Tuesday along with a few other ways we have worked on those pesky multiplication facts!

And.... I am super excited because tomorrow I will be having a 300 follower giveaway!  Over 60 amazing bloggers have gotten together to help me celebrate, so there are tons of prizes.  I am overwhelmed by the fact that I have 300 followers on both Bloglovin and TpT - but I was even more overwhelmed by how many people offered to help me celebrate!  Don't forget to stop by tomorrow to celebrate with us!
