4th Works: Double Celebration! VAMOS!
http://4thworks.blogspot.com/2015/01/double-celebration-vamos.html
Wednesday, January 21, 2015. This will be my first TpT store sale in celebration. First, I'm celebrating 100 followers. Second, I'm celebrating Rafa Nadal's win today at the Australian Open! I won't bore you with details, but it was an intense match. I feel bad that I wasn't cheering for the American, but I'm loyal to Nadal. The color in my sale banner matches his Australian Open outfit, and it's his logo in the tennis ball. See, told you, obsessed! We moved it earlier due to having no school today.

Here are a few pictures. You can visit our classroom blog to see more. What I realized was that the wonderful ideas I've ...

Friday, January 23, 2015. So, I had my husband wake me up at his time of 5am so that I could start watching my recorded tennis match.

Earlier this week a student came up for me to sign a pass and I saw May 1st and told her she had it open to the wrong week. Yikes! Where has this school year gone. I cannot keep up. Only 6 weeks left. Needing: This one never changes and never seems to be accomplished. Without a cleaning lady we are doomed. Surprise: Check out Mrs. Hester's Blog. Links to this post.
