Random Thoughts plus a review!!

I have been so far behind on life in general.  Haven't been feeling the greatest lately and the end of the school year is kicking me in the hiney!!  We officially have 25 days of school left and as all teachers know it is the craziest, busiest time of the year.  I apologize for leaving all you wonderful followers in the dark lately.  I have also been trying to complete two classes I am taking for ESL and I have no motivation to read my last three chapters and write my last paper.  GRRRRR!!! 

Weather was crazy here in Kansas, with a total of 112 tornadoes that touched ground.  I hope all my fellow Kansan teachers are safe.  We spent our Saturday evening following and watching the weather hoping our family and friends were safe.  My 8 year old daughter also made her First Communion today, so we celebrated with friends and family.

I also want to take time to share with you a K-5 Reading and Math program that I have been using for the last six weeks. It was a free trial and it provides some great activities to help your kiddos with Math and Reading.  The one thing that I really liked about it was that students can take a pre-test to see what level they are on.  Then lessons are set up just for them on their individual level.  Each activity is split apart with a game to keep the kids interested.  It's also great because parents can log into their child's account and see how they are doing.  If you are looking for another great technology resource to use in your classroom, you can check them out at any of the following places.
