Feelin' Witchy? Giveaway...have a look!

I have created my October calendar pieces and they are SUPER CUTE (if I do say so myself)! Nikki over at Melonheadz is amazing to say the least! She is so talented-if you haven't visited her blog make sure you do, you won't be disappointed! Below are my October calendar pieces...

Are these adorable or what? I can't wait to put them in my calendar! I will GIVE 3 COPIES TO 3 LUCKY FRIENDS...just leave a comment and you are entered to win! I promise one day when my kiddos are older, I will get a lot more creative with my giveaways-but for now this is the best I can do! All you amazing bloggers out there are an inspiration...one day-I will get there! But I LOVE pushing send when I email the winners! 

In other news, this last week my colleagues and I had our kiddos write about scientists and we completed a really fun experiment with Mentos and Diet Coke. I am sure you have heard of this but Deanna Jump has a fabulous science unit that contains this very experiment and she does a great job of putting it in kid friendly terms. We wrote about a scientist and the scientific process. It was tons of fun! You can find my writing maps/lesson plans in my Common Core Writing Unit. When we finished writing about a scientist we created a flow map of the scientific process using the Mentos and Diet Coke experiment. Boy did they "GET IT!" 

Last I have the October calendar with the activities for you to complete with your kiddos. Click on the picture and grab a copy. 


That's all folks. Don't forget to leave a comment and enter to win a copy of the October calendar pieces.  Happy Sunday!
