Inspiration

I have been wanting to blog for a few days now, I just have not been able to find the time.  I am in the middle of parent teacher conferences, and they seem to be the easiest task that I have lately.

I feel a lot better now, but we all struggle throughout our lives, but we just have to keep going... I go to school every day and teach my heart out and do everything I can what's best for my kids, and that's all you can do.. I have actually had the opportunity to get to know absolutely incredible people along the way that have been so supportive (Second Grade is Splendid)
I just have to remember that not everyone is a good person, people will past judgement on others, but as long as I am doing what I am supposed to be, that is all that I can do and that's good enough for me :)

It has been a productive month as far as writing goes - we are in our nonfiction unit and they LOVE it... which is great considering the Common Core is all nonfiction :) They are basically making a booklet of 4 nonfiction topics - some of them include different parts of the world, weather, famous contributors, and more.  The Magic Tree House Nonfiction Series is something that I definitely recommend to 3-4th graders.
The picture posted below is a book that my kids love reading right now -- definitely check it out!

Summer is approaching (yay) I am still trying to find time to go to the gym and eat better, not only to lose the weight I have gained over the past couple years (yuck) but just to be healthier and feel great.  I am trying!
Whenever there is time, I am working on a math test prep unit based on the common core for 3rd grade. I am on page 17 right now, but I want to keep going! Be on the look out for it soon--will include multiplication, division, fractions, probability, word problems, and more!

Take care everyone have a wonderful Friday tomorrow!
