Welcome to my blog! I teach 3rd grade and love, love, love what I do!!! My "first" degree was a BA in psychology from Louisiana Tech, my master's degree is in Human Relations from University of Oklahoma, and I went back for teacher certification in Elementary Education from LSU-Shreveport.
During our first week of school, I use this as a "getting to know you" activity. I attach the letter and little poem (2 sizes to choose from) to a brown lunch bag, and the boys and girls fill the bag with 5 items that describe him/her. I share one, too. :)
