I had a super productive day on Sunday! I got my lesson plans finalized, decorated my house with some fall decor, and canned the rest of my tomatoes...world's yummiest pasta sauce with no extra junk!
We kicked off our mini unit about the scientific method by completing The Bouncing Corn experiment. The kids adored this experiment and were so engaged!
Open House took place the night before I received eight, yes eight, new students!
After receiving eight new kids, we started over on our expectations (of course) and used Save Fred as a way to help our new kids feel a part of our classroom community which a wonderful place to be. My kids have a ton of buy-in towards our "everyone feels safe, no bullying" classroom community! Loving how this year has started out!
Earlier this month, I placed my first order with NAEIR. Today, my package arrived. Here are all my classroom goodies! Super excited that this stuff came today!
So that is how my week played out. I hope you had a great week and can do something relaxing for you this weekend!
Homemade pasta sauce... Yum. My parents always grew their own tomatoes and canned their own sauce. I must confess that ours is store-bought! It's okay, but definitely NOT the same! Have a great weekend.

Those tomatoes look delish!! I can't imagine getting 8 new kiddos since the start of the school year already!! I have had 2 so far in 4 weeks of school. Wishing you a great weekend!
