T.G.I.F.

I know..what a title...But this week I'm just exhausted...I'm just so tired I can barely even keep my eyes open. Our SIFE project was a hit! The kids are so excited..I don't think I told you what the project is..well, they have to start their own business. SIFE is providing the supplies and they have to make a craft to sell to their classmates. We are going to be teaching them about profit, and product, and advertising...fun stuff! So today they got to see all the stuff that I actually bought for the "Store" and they were so exstatic! They just wanted to start buying and creating already! Unfortunately we ran out of time so we couldn't start that yet...We'll have to start NO MATTER WHAT on Monday...The rest of the day was nice, they were so quiet..OH! so on Tuesday I started this new thing, everytime the are quiet or following directions or walking down the hall quietly like they're supposed to I give them a letter. If they are able to spell "TEETH" by the end of the day, we are able to play Around the World. So up until now, they haven't made it...UNTIL TODAY! I would leave the room and when I came back they were still QUIET! it was amazing...I was so shocked that I was staring at them for a bit like...what happened? why are you being quiet? what did you do? Anyways, we played the game and now they seemed to be more motivated for earning those letters. Which, of course, is a bonus for me!
Well, wish me a good weekend! I got alota fun stuff planned!
