What a Week!

Well, I am now officially on Fall Break. I am so excited for this break because I have had quite a week.  Have you ever heard that bad things happen in threes? On Saturday, I came down with a cold and then, lucky me, broke my little toe.  Then, I came down with a bacterial infection. Yeah, that wasn't fun at all. So I went to school on Monday and had to leave before the kids came into the room. I am feeling much better today. I feel like a normal person again.
Since we had a short week this week, we didn't have a unit to teach in our Treasures series. I was so happy to have a couple of days to do some fun things I found on a few other blogs.

Bat activities from Fun in First Grade

I'm amazed with how many facts my kids learned about bats this week. Their new favorite word is "echolocation."

Here are some other pages I made about bats. Feel free to grab a copy by clicking on the picture.

I planned on doing a smaller unit on spiders this week but didn't get it done since I was sick.  Here's a couple of sheets that I made. Grab a copy by clicking on the picture.

Hope you can use these in your classroom!
