365th post...Amazon is Down! I need that yoga top! This is not what I intended ot write about this morning!


I'm climbing down from my high horse right now. I decided that I needed a yoga top in order to truly yoga and meditate on the right path, but when I went to type in "yoga tops in women's sports and fitness" I got an "error" message. 

Oh geez! I've spent the last thirty minutes agonizing over this catastrophe. And I thought I was enlightened. I even posted my predicament on Facebook! I thought I was still on the wagon with that one! Nope, Amazon down and I immediately get on FB. I've not been on FB for at least a couple of weeks. What's next? Will I be checking my Twitter feed? I really need an Instagram account! I rarely Pin, but today I may have to create a new board just for my own personal agony! 

Oh! When will this agony end?

We've done two pages per day as part of our reading workshop minilessons. They're writing the notes and responses in their journals. The grammar connection on infinitives really threw them for a loop~it was the first time that they've encountered this verbal. Melissa

Back to School Bumper Sticker Activity and Printable

Image
Here in Middle Tennessee, we go back to school in two weeks, so it's the perfect time to begin thinking about icebreaker activities.  My Back to school Bumper Sticker Printable and Activity includes 20 different bumper stickers, 10 color and 10 black and white.

Use this as an icebreaker in the following way: Students brainstorm some bumper stickers that they've seen and what those bumper stickers say about the person driving the car. Then, the students will write down several bumper sticker sayings that represent them and their ideas or beliefs. Show students some examples of completed bumper stickers. Afterwards, give each student a copy of the bumper sticker template. Each student designs and creates a bumper sticker that represents him or her. After students have created their bumper stickers, they walk around the room reading each other's bumper stickers. This activity is a fun and creati...

Heinrich Schliemann

Heinrich Schliemann loved stories aobut ancient Greece. He dreamed of finding Troy, an ancient city destroyed during the Trojan War. In 1871, Schliemann began to dig through a human-made mound in Hissarlik, Turkey. Two years later, he uncovered the remains of a mysterious ancient city in the area where Troy stood. Some archaeologists believe that Schliemann actually found Troy. Others are unsure. Nevertheless, his work led to the discovery of many ancient Greek treasures. Because of his work, Schliemann is considered the founder of prehistoric Greek archaeology. Photo courtesy of Wikimedia Commons Human history has become too much a matter of dogma taught by professionals in ivory towers as though it's all fact. Actually, much of human history is up for grabs. The further back you go, the more that the history that's taught in the schools and universities begins to look like some kind of faerie story.
