A Shark Quickie

A couple of days ago, my girl, Tasha, shared a link for 9 free kids ebooks on various animals. I jumped at the freebie and loaded them to the Kindle App. On the way home yesterday, the Prince started reading Sharks and finished 75% of it. At dinner he was telling his daddy all about sharks. So this momma wasn't gonna let a great lesson end there. This morning, thanks to the fabulous Step Into Second Grade, we continued our poetry lesson my completing the Shark ebook and making a very cute scary shark poem. Head over to Mrs. Lemons blog and get you free Shark templates. I can't wait to find projects for the next 8 books.


Thanks again, Tasha!

Ewww. Frogs.

I don't like frogs. The end. Well, not the end because I haven't blogged anything yet. I still don't like frogs.


I do like teaching basic poetry while practicing verbs and adjectives in the form of a Cinquain poems though :).This is where the husband would make a face and say "you're such a dork!"


Thanks to Step Into Second Grade for the uber cute and crafty frog idea and The First Grade Parade for the FREE brainstorming and planning sheets!

We started off reading a couple of thought enticing books. Thunder Love enjoyed them.
