This is conference week and I know it's gonna be crazy!
On Tuesday, we're going to see the play "Strega Nona" and I am so excited! The group that does the play is fantastic... if you're a Michigan teacher, you've got to find a way to get the Wild Swan Theater to come to your area. They come to a neighboring community every year and area schools are invited to come for free and they always put on SUCH a great show!
Anywho... today is "Strega Nona" day ay school in Room 10 and I have some great activities planned including some ABC order fun, spaghetti and mathballs game (where you can type in your own math to make it appropriate for your kiddos!), character point of view, a smidge of writing, a "Go Fish" style story elements game, and eating this awesome Pinterest find...
Chocolate cupcakes, cream cheese "spaghetti" frosting, malted milkballs "meatballs", and strawberry ice cream "spaghetti sauce"!
So... I'd like to give you the opportunity to win this set before it's available for purchase at The Teaching Oasis. All you have to do is make sure you've liked my blog and The Teaching Oasis on Facebook and leave me a comment to let me know! I'm thinking this would be an excellent "emergency sub" kit too! Just pre-copy the activities for your class and pop it into a folder with a copy of the book and... no driving in to work at 6am to write sub plans for an unexpected sick-day!
I'll choose a few winners at random on Thursday! I have a half-day that day (and no school on Friday!)... so since I'll be celebrating, I'll just lump in the winnings that day too!
Here's a sneak peek at some of the items in the 21-page pack!

Have you notice the numbers on your blog counter have gone skyrocketing to the moon since I found you? I read your blog all the time! Our school talked about going tomorrow to see Strga but it wasn't in the budget. I know you will enjoy it, you're right, this troup is awesome. I'm anxious to see your unit on her. I have all the Strega books!
ReplyDeleteLove everything you do! You have made my teaching experience so much easier!
