Five for Friday

Linking up once again with the wonderful Doodle Bugs Teaching for this five for Friday! What a week it has been. Planing for our field trip to Busch Stadium and I was evaluated on Thursday.

On Tuesday I was super excited to get the brand new Kid President: Guide to Being Awesome.  It was such an incredible and inspiring read. I was bouncing into school on Wednesday ready to be Awesome!!!

We also began our Black History Month readings with Jackie Robinson. It is such an enjoyment when your kids actually like what you are teaching them,. They had so many questions about Jackie and what he did. They were so blown away when the tour guide started talking about Jackie Robinson today on our tour at Busch Stadium. John (our tour guide) was incredible, my kids were on edge of their seat listening to him.

As I mentioned above we went on a field trip today and it was so amazing. We learned about math, science and language arts, and how it is used in the game of baseball.

Here is my group getting their group picture taken in the same spot where Cardinals manager Mike Matheny does his post-game press conferences.

Finally, being at a baseball stadium on what was a beautiful February day in Missouri has me so in the mood for baseball. I am not a Cardinals fan, as I am a die hard Cubs fan. However, even I have to admit this is a pretty magnificent view from Busch.

As you can tell we had a wonderful time participating in the CAPS program at Busch Stadium today. My class was great and I survived my first filed trip as a teacher. Also got a big thumbs up on Thursday from the principal as he left my evaluation. Will sleep a little easier once I actually meet with him though.
