Sunday Scoop



Happy Sunday everyone! I just wanted to jump on here really quick and let you know a little bit about what is going on this Sunday….so I'm giving you The Sunday Scoop!

I am linking up for the first time with Teaching Trio! It's a blog with three teacher authors, which I think is pretty clever! Plus their blog is super cute!



So even though it's November and the start of indulgent food, I going to try very hard to stick to healthy meals!  Which is why I need to plan healthy meals and drink lots water.  I had some blood drawn yesterday (I apologize if its TMI) and the nurse said my veins are very thin and I need to drink more water! So drinking water is a win-win! It helps me to stay healthy AND my thin veins might get more plump?!… I don't know what word too describe non-thin veins… plump sounded good but that is a funny word!

I do hope to finish up an awesome Turkey comprehension unit I am creating. I must say of all the units I've ever created, I am most excited and proud of this one! It's all about turkeys, of course, but the kids get to read information 4 different ways. There is an informational magazine style text, an online kid-friendly website, a story and a poem!

Here is a sneak peek!






Lastly, my hubby is coming home today from a weekend away of fishing. He and his close friends take a guys trip every year and come back with the best stories. It is nice to spend time with friends and just get away but I sure am happy he'll be home soon.

If you get a chance head over to Teaching Trio and check out what other bloggers are up to today!

  1. I love your blog! I am like you and I wanted to make sure that I need to drink water before I go to Peru and also that I need to get fit and in shape.

  2. Your blog is really cute! Your turkey unit looks good, can't wait to see the finished product. What grade is it geared toward?

  3. Love your blog! I was looking around and realized it was done by "A Bird in Hand" designs. I just signed up to have her do mine. She does such a great job. :) I'm a new follower.
    I hear you on the drinking water. I need to do the same. I get so caught up during the day. Good reminder!
    Hope you have a great week!

  4. That turkey unit looks great! I have never heard that drinking more water will make your veins "plumper" but it makes sense! I should drink more water too. Hm... maybe I need to write that on a to-do list so it constantly reminds me! As for the blog design... that is all Kristen and Juliet. I am the newbie that gets to enjoy the beautiful blog and creative people! :) Thanks for linking up with us and I hope you have a fabulous week!
