Here’s a Work on Words activity I’ll use this week. Our phonics skill is /oa/ and /ow/ words. I think my boys will like it…maybe some of my girls too. They match the words to the correct goal post.

Remember when Sally Fields said that at the Oscars…wait there I go showing my age again.

I want to give a big thanks to Mrs. Roper , Katie, at Persnickety Pickels and Mrs. Martin at Kindergarten Hoppenings for giving me the stylish blogger award. I think your blogs ROCK!
Okay here are the rules:
1. Thank and link back to the person who awarded you this award
2. Share 7 things about yourself
3. Award 5 recently discovered great bloggers
4. Contact these bloggers and tell them about the award
Seven Things About Me:
1. I am a book hoarder…seriously they should do a show about me.
2. I am a closeted Romance Writer…I even have a finished manuscript but I’m too chicken to submit it. I am a member of Romance Writers of America. I have tons of ideas and partially finished manuscripts. I usually put 95% focus on my writing during the summer…and I always write for an hour everyday…no matter what.
3. I love to cook…gourmet meals are my specialty and I never fully follow a recipe…I’m always adding something to make it my own.
5. My brother Ibreheim was on the show Survivor. Here’s a picture of him. That’s his girlfriend in the pic with him.

6. My sister-in-law Elizabeth Mathis was in the Denzel Movie: Unstoppable. Here’s a picture of her. That’s her husband, my brother Isa, standing next to her.

At my house for Thanksgiving
*5 and 6 weren’t really about me but hey…I’m proud of them.
7. I love old movies: My Man Godfry, all The Thin Man movies, You Can’t Take It With You, anything with Joan Crawford…but Mildred Pierce is my absolute favorite.
Here are five great blogs (I read daily) who will get the award next:

Ms. A

Here is the Mister Bones packet I promised.
This has nothing to do with teaching…but I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Adele! Have you heard her new single? Check it out.
A few teachers have e-mailed me to see if I made a packet for The Dot, a Reading Street story. I’ve posted the packet here and hope to post one for Mr. Bones this weekend.
