I spent my Spring Break in my fifth grade classroom for a couple days and basically did nothing at all for the rest of it. That seemed like a good idea...at the time. Then I looked at my calender today :0 I have five lesson plans to do. I am doing three lessons in my fifth grade class this next week. Then the fourth one is the actual observation lesson. Then there is of course the one in here. I might be loosing all the sleep and rest I caught up on ;) Right now I have laundry and dishes going and I'm doing the smaller assignments in between cleaning. I should have done something useful this week, that was my original plan after all. I also forgot my step-dads birthday, he turned 50 on Monday because I didn't open my calender all week. I did get my bulletin board done and I love it!
I had the students all draw a name of a classmate. Then they made a flower for that classmate. On each flower was six positive things about the person with their name in the center. They weren't allowed to tell each other who they had and once they wrote the name of the person they had to give it to me right away. After they were all up then they could go find the one with their name on it. They really seemed to enjoy it.
Sounds like your week went fast! I took the time to get caught up with this class. I still need to do the lesson plan, back up plan, and rubric. I still didn't get everything caught up that I wanted to. I have too many papers to get done in such a short time. I am rested now so I should be able to back to groggy by the end of the week again lol.
