Wordless Wednesday: Identifying Coins


I can't believe Wordless Wednesday here on my blog
will be coming to a close for this school year shortly! 
 

I pulled out stamps to work on coin identification and values this week.
 
What do you use stamps for?
 
After you leave your comment, head on over to Sugar and Spice
to see what else is going on this Wednesday!

2nd Annual We {Heart} Teachers Event


Happy Teacher Appreciation Week Eve!


Teachers are some of the hardest working, caring, and passionate people I know. You never hear a teacher say, "I'm in this for the money, fame, and fortune".  Teachers teach because they have a passion for learning, sharing, and changing lives one lesson at a time.

So this week, my fellow teachers, is about you! Let's celebrate those little victories that never find their way onto a standardized test, like that one student who actually grabbed a copy of your favorite read aloud book for some quiet reading at their desk!

This week, in honor of you, I've joined forces with some of your favorite bloggers and teacher companies to bring you the 2nd Annual We {HEART} Teachers Event!


You thought last year was good... wait 'til you see what we've got for you this year!
