1. The first crazy thing this week was when I had to tell my grade level that we have to move storage closets this year... Not fun! You know how much work there is to do at the end of the year already... In the process of looking at the overwhelming task ahead, one of my team mates noticed that his rubbermaid containers and my containers were missing. Everyone we talked to had no idea what could have happened to them. After sending a mass email to the staff asking if they witnessed an alien abduction or something, we got an email back from a coworker who said he had taken them to move his house over the weekend. =)
2. We had our Publishing Party for our parents on Thursday. Kiddos had written about who they were going to be in 20 years. It was darling! I had a class slideshow that I had created using smilebox.com and when I got to school the day of the party, it was blocked by our district's server! Talk about freaking out! My wonderfully amazing Tech Contact/Computer Teacher tried her best to get the tech people to unblock it. After a lot of run around she was told to fill out a form...By this time, parents were already here for lunch. Thank goodness I saw my principal in the hall! I asked her if she had some sort of executive power and if she could do something. Within ten minutes, the site was unblocked! YAY principal!

3. Today was our Economics Carnival and it DIDN'T rain! We were so worried! It turned out great! The only thing better is if we could have had food. In past years we have had candy and fair type food, but now there is a food allergy policy... Does your school have that?
Kiddos LOVE the Economics Carnival! When I brought them in to take the assessment after the carnival, they were SILENT! They were so serious about doing a good job!

4. Our Teacher Appreciation is going to be the last week of school, but I just had to share this picture one of my teamies sent me.
I thought it was hilarious!
5. Did you notice we have a new blog design?!!!???!!! I a SUPER pumped! I had to keep looking at it today. It is so adorable Thank you so much to Megan over at A Bird in the Hand Blog Designs! She allows you to build the blog yourself (picking the elements you like) and then she puts it all together into cuteness!
