Lemonade Stand Freebie!



Don't we all LOVE surprises?!

I am offering a Top Secret product
from my store, guaranteed to be at
least a $3 product, for $1. I am
going to try and change these out
weekly so I will rename it #2, #3, etc.

Puppet Shows

I have an old set of readers theaters
for two parts. Students are paired up,
practice together, pick their puppets and 
PERFORM!

Most of the puppets kept looking down...
note the green frog....
these were the few that looked up! HA!

Product Details



I made frosted sugar cookies shaped
likes bones but forgot to take a picture!
This picture was from last year but the 
cookies turned out much better this year.
My frosting was nice and smooth!




I picked up stuffed dogs at
garage sales and the used store
in town and washed them up.

The kids kept asking if they really
got to keep the dogs!

Such a fun day and activity!

like to check this packet out!






It is dark in the classroom while 
students use their flashlights.





Instead of smores this year,
we ate bait!
(chocolate pudding, crushed Oreos
and gummy worms)









Lemonade Stand

For the last three years, my class has held
a lemonade stand.  We hold business meetings,
deciding on when and where to have it, who
we will donate the money to, how much to charge,
who will be our "investors", etc.

One year we donated to Alex's Lemonade Stand,
the next to a teacher with breast cancer our
class had been pen pals with, last year to
the elementary school in Moore, Oklahoma
that was destroyed by the tornado and this
year we are donating to a teacher in our school.
Her husband has lung cancer and the diagnosis
isn't good so we want to help in our small way.







The students set the price at 25 cents
and wanted to raise $100.
We made $87.37 just in the morning!

We ended up making $185 and had
someone donate $15 more to have
a total of $200!

Pancakes, Party, Field Trip, Camping and Contraction Surgery



fiveforfriday



1. Pancake Day!


Students tasted pancakes with strawberry jam 
and syrup.  We graphed our favorite and wrote an
opinion paper on it.  We will finish the other activities 
on Wednesday.  This is from my Pancake mini unit.

2. Shining Star Party

Students earned a party and chose to play games.
They earn 1 shining star if everyone stays on green
or above on our clip chart.  They also can earn
them for big compliments from other teachers
and this week I awarded them 2 shining stars for
every MAP test they all increased on. I didn't tell
them ahead of time they would earn stars but
when everyone increased, I wanted to reward them
and this gave us enough stars to have a party!





Obviously this wasn't a day we earned a shining star!









3. Science Center
Field Trip





 



 

 

 



 

 

 


4. Camping Read-In

Students brought in
a sleeping bag, flashlight,
books and a drink!
I supplied the smores!
I also found campfire sounds
on youtube and played it
while the students camped.



Obviously this setting on my camera didn't 
work to take pictures in the dark! 

This setting worked! 


 

 

 





5. Contraction Surgery



Prepping for surgery!

First we prepped our supplies and 
apostrophe band-aid (cut out the band-aid).
We recorded the patient's name (can not).
We prepped the patient (cut the two words in half).
We performed the surgery (cut out the letters not needed).
We disposed of the waste in the surgical baskets on the desks.



 Performing surgery!
 We glued the patient back together,
using a "band-aid" to cover the wound.




Surgery was a success!
