While we are all counting down the days (and maybe minutes) to the Easter holiday, I am still managing to have some fun with my class. We recently finished up an instructional writing unit and then did some baking. Now in math we are learning about money, so of course I had to bring some food into the unit! On Fridays we have our Dolphin Shop. The parents donate healthy food, and then the students get to buy and sell it. They each have a bank account, starting with 60 cents, and have to budget how much they want to spend each week. They love it, and it is neat to see which students really excel when the learning is so hands-on.
This week one parent sent in some very cute things. Her son has been sick all week, and I think they were bored.

9 more days until we have two weeks off ... in case anyone was interested.
