But the snow is {mostly} gone now and we're supposed to get up to 70 on Monday!
We worked hard on angles this week~and I whipped up some task cards for us to use!

Working on some measuring angles task cards for tomorrow-since I'm too cheap to buy what I need!😜 #math #taskcards #iteachfourth #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers #igteacher #teacherblogger

Our book box came! I used up some of my many bonus points (I had been saving for an iPad Mini-and wasn't too far off!) to pick up some kids choice.

Do you think I went a little overboard-I used up some of my BP to grab some kid's choice 😃📚📚 now just to label and level! #ilovebooks #youcanneverhavetoomany #scholastic #iteachfourth #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers

We had some more testing this week-and I used the time to map out math lessons, and what I thought the CC Standards were (putting measurement into a word problem does not constitute teaching MD 1 in my opinion!)

Using the SBA time wisely-plotting out lessons in the math curriculum and what CCSS they follow. Hope this makes next year better/easier! #iteach345 #iteachfourth #iteach456 #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers #igteacher #math #curriculummapping #planningwayahead

WE FINISHED TESTING!!

Celebrating the end of state testing and the hard work they did with Willy Wonka-they're all so engrossed! #iteachfourth #classicmovies #funfriday #reward #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers #teacherblogger

They picked Willy Wonka over Wizard of Oz~and also had a treat of Munchkins (and HOLY COW, has a box of 50 gotten expensive! They weren't that much when I worked there (about 13 years ago!) Glad I had a gift card!)

Happy Weekend!!

Smiles and Sunshine,
