Planet Rounding

Curse YOU GOOGLE DOCS!!! THAT'S RIGHT~ I'M SO MAD I HAVE MY CAPS LOCK ON!!!!!!!


On the other hand I have evaded you and found an alternate way to upload and direct other teachers to a document where they can use and tweak if needed.  You may have to look for it on the webpage.  My documents I post will be linked and directed to the part of my webpage where you can down load the file. IN WORD, so if you choose to change any of the material, feel free just don't be a bugar head and take credit for all my hard work, blah, blah, blah.... that's just uncool!!!!!

Here is a fantastic computer lesson where if you show the kids the link ahead of time they will have fun finding all the days, months and years on other planets then rounding to your mathematical choice.... I know a few fourth grade teachers that have used this too.  So... now that the first two weeks of school are over....
Like Mase said..... I'm Back!

Select the pictures above and it will bring you to the webpage where the file is stored.  This file is located under science technology and you can download and print.  Hope you like.

If you don 't have time to explore some of the science links to find out which this belongs with  here she is....

Overwhelmed

First two weeks of school.
Sooooo busy.
Dibels for two weeks.
Third graders are supposed to stay busy
while I test individual kids on reading passages.
When can I teach?
I heart teaching....
but here I dibel....
Is dibel a verb?
While sooooo many kids play
or randomly stare into space....
I should have put more educational posters on my walls...
I value the information these reading tests give us...
But two weeks of instruction...
gone.... gone..... gone....
Minilesson..... work on your own.... dibel......
Minilesson..... work on your own.... dibel......
