Pie Face

My son got this game from Santa over Christmas Break and we can't get enough of it. If you haven't heard about it. It is called Pie Face. It comes with a spinner and you crank the dial, it's kind of like Russian Roulette you never know when the whip cream will hit you in the face. It also comes with a sponge you can wet and have that hit you in the face instead.

I had to think of a way I could incorporate this into my classroom. So I decided to come up with a sight word game that would correlate with the game. Sorry you won't be able to play the sight word game unless you have the Pie Game. In class we use the sponge instead of the whip cream. But you could totally use the whip cream too. My students ask me every time we do guided reading if we can play this game.  Click the picture for the link.

 Good news TPT's is having a BIG SALE today too.

Eating My Children's Halloween Candy.

So if you're dreading going back to work tomorrow. I hope this video will give you a little chuckle to get over those feelings.  I don't know if you watch Jimmy Kimmel. But we love staying up and watching him. He has this challenge the day after Halloween to trick your kids into thinking you ate all of  their Halloween candy. Well here is our version this morning. As you can see I couldn't stop laughing as I was taping this. Have a great Sunday night, and enjoy!

Popular Purple Pencil Sharpener

Oh my goodness, I was so excited to review the new POPULAR PURPLE pencil sharpener. Don't you just LOVE the color? I'm in love, SERIOUSLY. Purple was always my favorite color growing up. People used to call me the purple people eater because I loved purple so much. Have you heard that song? I actually play that song in my class and the kids love it.     Anyway,

So this came in the mail and you would have thought it was Christmas Morning. I opened it so quick and couldn't wait to try it out. 

 This is my lovely dull pencil that has been sharpened with our good old regular pencil sharpener.

 So I decided to give it a whirl and try out the new quiet purple pencil sharpener.

 And LOOK at the difference. You could barely even hear the pencil sharpening and LOOK at the difference. Now guess what I'm doing? At the request of my kids and students, I'm sharpening every pencil in my house and all my pencils at school. But I really don't mind because this pencil sharpener is so Awesome. You should so go get one. www.classroomfriendlysupplies.com
