Winter Reading
Posted on 01:04 by blogger
It's time to sit by the fire and enjoy some leisurely reading. Not like I'll be doing any leisurely reading with a newborn, but I figured I would share some of the books I've read in the past few months that I've really enjoyed.
1. BEAUTIFUL BOY
This is a touching story of a father's life with his drug addicted son. Very touching and insightful novel.
2. BOSSYPANTS
Oh Tina Fey! You always know how to make me laugh. A great, lighthearted book that will keep a smile on your face.
3. BORN ON A BLUE DAY
Such an amazing story of a brilliant human. Because I teach special education, I'm often drawn to books about individuals with disabilities. This book was fascinating!
4. DARK PLACES
After reading Gone Girl, I couldn't wait to read more by Gillian Flynn. This thriller will keep you up late turning the pages!
5. LOOK ME IN THE EYE
I love all books by Augusten Burroughs, so when I found out his brother, John Elder Robinson, wrote a book, I knew I had to read it!
6. A MILLION LITTLE PIECES
This book is one of my favorites. Years ago it came out that the author wasn't truthful when writing this, but just go into it as if it were a fictional book. Regardless, it's a great read and remains one of my favorites.
7. WHITE GIRL PROBLEMS
OMG I couldn't stop laughing when reading this! It's ridiculously funny!
8. OUTLIERS
This is one of the most interesting books I've read. I'm looking forward to reading more from this author, Malcolm Gladwell.
9. REVENGE WEARS PRADA
I'm a huge fan of Lauren Weisberger and was super excited when this book came out! It was fun tying up loose ends from The Devil Wears Prada.
10. WHAT ALICE FORGOT
Love this author and this cute, girly book! A great, easy, fun read!

New Year's Resolution Book
Posted on 00:00 by blogger
I know we haven't even celebrated Christmas, but it's never too early to start thinking about New Years! It's just sneaks up every year!
Two years ago we started a book with our New Year's resolutions. It's such a fun way to recap the year and look back at past years together and get a good laugh. The worksheet is nothing fancy and is short and sweet.
**to print, right click and save to your computer**
It's great to do as a couple, with kids, or in a large group. I can't believe 2013 is almost over already!

Throwback Thursday ~ Reindeer Games
Posted on 01:05 by blogger
I'm so sad I'm missing all of the holiday fun in my classroom! Here's a throwback of a fun game we played last year.
Pin the nose on the reindeer can be played in your classroom, at home, or at a work party! My students absolutely loved it! Even though no one got close (including 6 adults!), we still had a blast trying!
Caution: Not as easy as I recall when I was a child!
