Mid-March Marvelous News!

Hello there!  Today I'm linking up with Andrea from Momfessionals and Erika from A Little Bit of Everything for:

             Friday Favorites:  Spring is Coming Some Day!



NORTH, SOUTH, EAST OR WEST, HOME'S THE PLACE I LIKE THE BEST!

After a year of cross-stitching, I finally finished this work of art:


I love doing my cross-stitching because it keeps my mind focused.  I bought this kit on Etsy, and it was a lot of work, but hopefully, it will be a family heirloom.

NEW RYKA SNEAKERS 

I do love a new pair of comfortable sneakers!  I recently bought these Ryka sneakers (the ones of the right) on TJ Maxx.com for $39.99, and you can also find them on Amazon for $41.70.

These sneakers have lots of support so they are comfortable.  I walk a lot in the warm weather so I'll be happy to have these to wear.


APRIL IS NATIONAL POETRY MONTH!


We're preparing for National Poetry Month which is in April.  I just love the way poet Doug Florian uses words so creatively. 


We also read a poem, Rain, by Robert Louis Stevenson:




I found the best poem by Eileen Spinelli for St. Patrick's Day (I changed Canadian to American):


We also wrote paragraphs about why we're lucky.




In addition, here's a reminder March 21st, is World Down Syndrome Day as well as Lots of Socks Day!


I have even prepared my Morning Message for tomorrow!


Lots of Socks Day & World Down Syndrome Day ~ March 21st!



Even thought these Morning Messages are dated in the past, I have redone them all and show them on the "big screen" in front of the room!

In the meantime, Happy St. Patrick's Day.  When my father passed, we put this quote on the prayer cards:

An Irish Blessing

May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of his hand.

Gingham Sneakers!

I had to pick up a 20 pack of Play-Doh that I had ordered at Walmart.  I finally decided that my students would LOVE this relaxing activity at the start of school.  Luckily, a Marshall's was right next door so I had to go in to check out the markdown items, and I found these most adorable slip-on sneakers that I didn't need but had to buy anyway:



You can find the exact same pair at Amazon!




Farmer's Almanac Predicts Warmer Weather In New England!

According to The Woman's Day web site, Massachusetts and the Northeast will have more rain than snow next winter (= less snow days to make up in June!):

Classroom Organizing and Purging!

At the end of school, I broke my foot but still needed to get everything off the classroom floor.  Consequently, I threw everything in the cabinets.  I spent a vast amount of time over the past two weeks fixing the mess I created:


In addition, I arranged all the books in my library and made new labels, too:





Have a marvelous long and relaxing Labor Day weekend!  Do you think the Farmers' Almanac accurately predicts the weather?  This winter, I sure hope it's right!
