Pirates and good byes

Okay, I swear I'm not being lazy.  I am trying to find the time to do some uploading of pictures, but  something always comes up  or I need to get some where immediately after school like physical therapy. (bad back with a pinched nerve - OUCH!)  

So here are some of the pictures from our pirate week.  It was a blast!   At the end of the week we also said good bye to Miss Dougherty our student teacher. It was a fun and sad day. We celebrated with a cupcake theme and wished her well.


First we brainstormed our AR words.  Then reviewed them.



We played some pirate games site word games.



Made some really cute pirates.



Here's the Bellettini Crew

And finally said good bye!

First offical Blog!

Hi everyone!  I'm so excited to be a new blogger.  I am a huge fan of first grade blogs and now I want to give it a try.  I love the idea of sharing with other teachers and  having a virtual window for parents to see their cuties hard at work. 

So for my official first post (Forget the other one, I had no idea what I was doing.) I want to share about this week's theme.  My firsties have been very busy with every thing pirate.  Thanks to all the great ladies who created pirate units we have been having a blast!  Thank you Babbaling Abby, Anna Brantley, Deanna Jump, First Grade ABCS, and Christie Lamb!  Stay tuned for pictures to come.  Apparently my u drive is down. 

And I also need to give a great big SHOUT OUT to Diana of Custom Blog Designs for her amazing work on my blog.  I LOVE IT!  Thank you again Diana.  So if you need a blog make over or want to start  your own blog and want it to look great, check her out.
