bricks and "building blocks"

As a sponge activity yesterday, I had my students brainstorm as many creative uses for a brick as they could come up with. The discussion afterward was pretty funny.

Today, I gave each one an index card and had them put their name on them and then decorate the cards. I'm going to stick them to the hallway wall like a loose brick wall, and title it "Building Blocks of a great team!" Something to give the moms and dads warm-fuzzies at Open House Tuesday night.

Well, I do have to admit that I'm in competition with the other teams down the hall. I'm determined to outdo them. LOL

I'm so glad I have Quincy. :) It's wonderful to have someone huggable to come home to every day, who's so thrilled to see me every time.
