Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone had a great day. My ‘staches were on point today. I read with every child during guided reading. We mastered counting on. We had lots of fun. I love these days! I have a HUGE HUGE HUGE announcement….but you have to read the entire post before you learn the news!
Today I want to share a new greeting and activity for morning meeting and the great thing about this is that it brings science into morning meeting! If you’re like me, it’s hard to find time to get science into your day. I am a huge fan of science and like many of you, I try to find ways to incorporate science through literature and math. So you can imagine my giddiness when I stumbled across this new book:

1. I don't even teach kindergarten and I want to come just because I think you might just get me motivated again.
2. I almost ordered this book but wasn't sure if it was going to work. Seems like it is a good idea and I could definitely do that activity with my 3rd graders but have them determine the temp and if that is warm, cool, hot, or cold.
3. I am jealous that your principal ordered the book for the school.
4. I really need to get back into morning meeting. I did if last year for a month until they ruined my schedule and then never tried it this year. But the kids loved it!

I wish I could catch you in Vegas, but we are going to Disney this summer! My husband graduates college in December! He was a late starter. We are taking the son to Lego Land too! He's a 7 year old Lego building genius! You will have to blog all about it so I can live through your blog. 😉

U mentioned that you read “pumpkin town” to your class and did a comprehension map. What did your map look like ? Can you show it? Thanks for sharing

I love your blog! It's nice to see another male in the early childhood setting. I'm 18 and currently a TA at the pre-k level while going to school full time. I am an aspiring kindergarten teacher and your blog gets me even more exited.
Thank you!
As a science teacher for K-5 students in my district, I am always looking for great ideas to add more science. I would love to order this book ASAP. Just wondering, what age groups could this book be used for? Is it set up for daily? Theme? Grade level? Thanks for sharing!
