B-B-B- Bats

So the last 2 days of this week, I was subbing in third grade. I found out on Thursday that every 3rd grade class is studying bats. OK...very cool. We did this unit in Kindergarten and had a great time. We read Stellaluna and did a Venn Diagram comparing bats to birds.

When I got to school on Thursday, I found out that we would be doing the same thing, so I was ready to go. I had no idea what an impression it would actually make until Friday and today. At the beginning of the lesson, we sing a song called B-B-B Bats. I think this a great ways for kids to remember the facts that they are learning, so of course we sang it twice through... Little did I know that I would be singing the chorus to the song for the last 3 days. The last time this happened (when I got a song stuck in my mind), it was with last year's kindergarten class...with the song, Dazzling Dancing D.

Has it been a while since you wrote to a friend?
Perhaps today would be a good day to send a note of encouragement.

A new month already and finally a chance to post...


I suppose I have hed several opportunities to post a new blog entry, but I have not felt like it at all or I have been just too busy with everything.
I finally finished all the hats and cards for the art show and am excited to see if they will sell. I certainly hope they will. I would like to have a little Christmas/travel money that I can use any way that I would like. Aside from the busyness of everything, I have been working everyday almost which is an excellent thing! God has provided in amazing ways for everything that I need. So now it is Sunday...a break from everything and I think I will finish reading my Gladys Taber book, Stillmeadow Sampler while drinking a a mug of vanilla nut biscotti coffee.
Enjoy this beautiful day!
