Accurate

I'm not sure how many of you are New Girl fans but I love it! The following is one of my favourite moments from the show and is basically me every time I'm in the car

I don't think anything else needs to be said.

Teacher Tuesday

Oh my gosh it's a miracle, I'm actually posting a Teacher Tuesday on a Tuesday!

Unfortunately no freebies today, however I do have some good news (well for me at least). Today I received my final prac placement allocation which is cause for celebration for two reasons:

1. The uni was able to find me a placement so I don't have to go hunting for one like last time

2. My placement is in a kindergarten which I was hoping for since it gives me a chance to experience using the EYLF.


So please excuse me while I leave you to go scrub up on my EYLF reading. To make up for the lack of freebie today I leave you with an outfit set that you could wear for teaching during the coming Spring (for those in the southern hemisphere) or for Autumn/Fall (for my readers in the northern hemisphere).

yay for mustard

The Little Ostrich That Could

Ok Call me crazy, but I have just spent the last hour of my life watching an ostrich hatch on a live feed. It's so addictive watching little Pip fight her way outta that shell!

I know I'm not the only one going gaga over a baby ostrich as all my friends and I are going back and forth like crazy on messenger while we watch it. I swear this will go down as one of those times we look back on in years to come and be like 'remember that night we all stayed up and watched an ostrich hatch online'.

UPDATE:

Pip just hatched with a lot of help from her 'dad', they are now reporting her delivery to the world, while the internet watches Pip trying to stand up for the first time.

FINAL UPDATE:

Ok so Pip is doing fine and is now in her little warm home. Since it's now 12:07 am and I have uni in 8 hours I'm going to head off to sleep. I leave you with this final picture of Pip all happy in her home, I may turn on the live stream again in the morning and see if it's still going. 

Good night my lovelies,

Teacher Tuesday (on a Friday)

OK so I officially suck at sticking to something when I say I will. I have missed TWO Teacher Tuesdays, so to make up for one of them I come bearing another freebie as a peace offering.

Enter 2D Shape Art:

2D Shape Art is a fun activity for students to consolidate and review their knowledge of 2D shapes, perfect to cap off an introductory lesson on shapes or as a follow up lesson. This activity allows students to unleash their creativity and use common 2D shapes to make a picture, what they create is only limited by their imagination.

The pack includes an introduction on how to use the sheets, a shape art worksheet for students to create their picture on, and two sheets of shapes. The shapes used in this activity include squares, rectangles, circles, ovals, triangles, hexagons, and rhombuses.

I created this pack for my prac students and they loved it, I ended up with pictures of everything from flowers to dinosaurs! If you do use this pack in your classroom I'd love to hear what your students create so please leave me a comment below :)
