Back in action... giveaway time!

Hi friends! I am so happy to report that, after a day full of delays (one that involved us sitting on the runway in the +100 degree New York heat for more than 30 minutes in an airplane that they knew they weren't going to fly us on because a computer was down and then they made us get off and go wait in the terminal for a different plane, which did nothing good for someone like me who is afraid to fly anyway!) we finally made it safely home! I am drinking my own coffee (yum!) out of my new New York City skyline silhouette mug and doing some laundry and, as much as I loved NYC, who doesn't love getting home after a long trip?

But enough of that! I hit 300 followers while I was on vacation and that means a giveaway is in store! AND... right now I'm only 17 followers away from 400, so if I hit 400 before this giveaway ends, I will choose 4 winners... 1 for every 100 followers! How awesome is that?!

So, here's what you do and here's what you win...

1.) Become a follower of my blog if you are not already.
2.) Blog about this giveaway if you have a blog. Go forth and spread the word! Feel free to use the "Flippy Giveaway" button too!
3.) Leave a comment. Whatever you want to say... say it!

On Wednesday (7/27) when we're all feeling the "Middle-of-the-Week-Mehs", I will choose the winner(s?) by random number generator and you will win your choice of a set of flippy books!

You get your choice of:
*holidays set- Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, 100th Day, birthday
*grammar set- nouns, verbs, adjectives, contractions
*science set- water cycle, magnets, plant parts, vertebrates (one for each vertebrate group!), and matter

And, if you missed any of my posts explaining what a "flippy" is, here's the link! And... if you don't win (which I hope you do and I hope I get to choose 4 winners!), you can always purchase them at The Teaching Oasis! I am really in to making these... so maybe in your comment, you can let me know what other flippy books you'd like to see!

Ok- that's it! GO!

  11. I follow your blog and have recruited many of my super colleagues:) Everyday (even though I get the email) I check to see if you posted anything because I just love all of your ideas! My favorite so far was the PA book...totally purchasing it! Glad your flight was ok...I know La Guardia can be a total pain as I am a former New Yorker now living in Fl... Rent is in my car and I play it often. Have fun un-packing. I am too! Just got back from Savannah:)
