I'm starting measurement tomorrow and have already purchased your “I Can Measure” unit. Love you giant foot and the bulletin board of 'feet'. I can't wait to start. So glad that you and your family had a beautiful Easter. You all look blessed and happy.
Starting measurement when we return next week! Love the foot idea! Love your Easter pictures.

I hear you on the craziness of being cooped up in your room during testing! So glad it's over for this week. That drawing idea is great! I'm going to have to pull that out for a rainy day!

Your daughter is an amazing beauty with a beautiful smile:) What a precious blessing for your family!
I'm actually using your measurement unit this week in my classroom. They love it! I love the measuring with a ruler activity. We're going to do it tomorrow. Thanks for the great ideas. And…Joelle is precious.
Love ALL your measurement ideas, especially the shoes. You're right…give a 2nd grader the opportunity to take off their shoes and you're golden!
And thanks, as always, for sharing pictures of your sweet little one!

I just bought your measurement unit last week and I'm so excited to use these activities next week! Love and adore that giant foot. I'm so copying that! Thank you for sharing your awesomeness! Also, so happy you had such a blessed Easter. God is so good!
Awww! Her first Easter in America! 🙂 I love watching your sweet family and love your teaching ideas! I pinned your pic of the measurement/drawing of the house. I tried something like that in my classroom during my first year of teaching and it was the biggest EPIC fail lesson of my life! Memories! 😉

Almost ready to begin measurement! I can't wait to begin now with all of the ideas you gave me! I am so glad that the Lord blessed you with a wonderful Easter. Your daughter looks so happy!
With all due respect I thoroughly enjoy reading your 'educational' posts BUT I believe I'm enjoying posts and pics of your daughter slightly more…tee hee hee. She's gorgeous and am loving all the beautiful headbands you dress her up in. Blessings to you!
I LOVE your measurement unit. Thank you for the prefix/suffix freebie! I don't usually dive too terribly deep into it with my firsties…but I think I have some that can do it this year! I'll give it a try! Joelle is just a ray of sunshine. LOVE HER!
I can't tell you how appreciative I am for you and your ideas! As a 2nd grade teacher, you are always my number 1 blog to search for the best ideas. I just got so many ideas from you the past month for fractions and measurement! God Bless you!!!
Big thank for the posting. love your blog 😀
