BUSY FUN FESTIVE WEEKEND

Ok...so we had a full weekend! Saturday morning, we took the kids bowling. They love to go bowling! Brady liked trying to carry his 6lb ball and roll it down the ramp and Kaitlyn is becomming quite a pro! She got 4 spares in the second game and even beat Mommy (that doesn't say much for my bowling capabilities!).
Saturday evening, the weather was quite mild for December 17 so we took the kids to the Wild Lights at the Zoo. They loved seeing all the ligh displays and walking around the zoo at night.
And today, the Bengals were playing here in town playing the Rams. We found $6 tickets on stub hub, so we took the kids to their first football game. We had so much fun! The kids were fantastic and we really enjoyed the Bengal win (well, I did anyway!). We are lookig forward to a super busy week filled with more fun festivities and the beginning of our holiday celebrations with a visit from Grandma and Grandpa K; Santa's big arrival as well as getting ready for a fun visit with the Humphrey's in Cincinnati!

Brady decided he wanted to have his birthday party with his friends at Chuck E Cheese. He invited his best buddies from school and we had a great time. He scored tons of tickets in the ticket blaster, had a Star Wars cake and had a great time playing games with all his friends. Here are some highlights from the awesome party!

What are the benefits of blogging for students? There are many benefits of blogging for students. Students can use blogging to express what they have learned about a specific topic in the classroom. For example, students have been learning about marine animals in science class. Students have been following the nesting of sea turtles in Hilton Head Island. They have each chosen a nest and have been following it on their website. Every few days, students read the progress of the nest online and then create a blog post on what they read and include images to share with their classmates. Another benefit to students blogging is for them to be able to express themselves creatively. Students can create a weekly poem blog post where they find a poem they like, copy it to their blog post (citing the author and resource where they found it) and then summarize the poem and write about why they chose it and what they liked most about it.

12 Days of Pinterest: Day 8

Day 8: 12/17/12 Ok, so I apologize for the break in my "12 days of Pinterest" posts. My parents were in from Ohio the last 5 days and we were busy celebrating Christmas (early) and doing all the St. Louis holiday things there are to do (lights, train displays, Christmas concerts....you know!). Today I am doing a something that when I saw it on Pinterest - I knew I HAD to do it! We have a ton of ornaments. They are currently on our tree (duh) but when they are in storage the other 11 months of the year, they are kept wrapped in tatty tissue paper in shirt boxes that are falling apart. Every year I say "I am going to get one of those "ornament organizers" (the ones you see at Target and Home Depot)....and every year when I go to buy one, I go into sticker shock! How can a piece of plastic that holds 12 ornaments be $20! Of course we have more than a dozen ornaments, so I went on a hunt for something cheaper! Here it is! It cost me $2.50 to make. I used cardboa...
