Five for Friday

It's Five for Friday time with Doodle Bugs Teaching!

My week started off with back to back baby showers!

My husband and I had so much fun celebrating the upcoming birth of our first child 

with all of our friends and family.

Baby shower number one was thrown by my best friends from school.  

It was a Very Hungry Caterpillar theme.  

 

Isn't this caterpillar made of diapers so cute?!

 The cake was both adorable and delicious!

Baby shower number two was thrown by my family.  The theme was Once Upon a Time.

The cake was so pretty and very tasty!

The cookies were adorable!

 We wrapped up our unit on contractions this week.  

The kids and I made several anchor charts together.

 

The anchor charts are hanging in our classroom 

and are some of the kids' favorite charts to read when they are at Read the Room station.

 

The kids practiced reading contractions by playing the Chocolate Covered Contractions game.  

Two game boards are included but, we just used the cards (printed in gray scale).  

It was so cute to watch their expressions when one of them would pull a Yum! card.

I got to meet my long term substitute this week!  I was getting a little worried because it was taking a long time to find someone to take care of my class.  I am so relieved now!  She is willing to come in and spend a week with us and is very eager to take over for me.  I think my kiddos are in good hands!

My hospital bags are packed and ready to go.  We are so ready to meet this little one!

 Now it's your turn to link up!

Have a great night!
