Five for Friday and Countdown freebie!

Hi friends!

I'm finally linking up for Doodle Bugs Teaching's Five for Friday linky! I've wanted to every Friday for a while... I've just been crazy busy! 

1.Every Friday we add the little guys to our poetry notebooks! It's one of my favorite things to do all week and the journals will be a great keepsake for them for years!

2. Reading with my kiddos in the library on Fridays... every other day we do small group at teacher table. This is an all time fave in my class! So proud of this little guy and his growth this year!!

3. My kiddos playing DeeDee Wills' Sequence ending sounds game. I am in LOVE with these games and my kids just can't get enough! They LOVE to block their opponents and don't even realize they're working as they play!

 4. It had been a long day... and I really needed some chocolate, so I found this mug cake recipe and whipped it up last night! Delish! {plus the caramel syrup I drenched it with was a bonus}

 5. I have a new freebie up! One of my sweet teaching friends {Hi Alana!!} asked if I could make her some countdown pages for holidays we have in school. Of course! Love the idea! Click here to download the freebie. Most school holidays are included!

 I hope your Friday was fabulous and the rest of the weekend is, too! Now I'm off to clean the house... we've got a showing at 2:30!
