A Day in the Life of Me
this was just a journal entry that i had to do for dance
~nothing really important~
Surprisingly after I got home from my BFF Christine’s house (I practically live there, if that tells you at all how much I’m over there), I picked up my geometry homework and whizzed right through it (I wanted to finish my bright orange duct tape bag!!) Luckily I didn’t have that much other homework, because I also had other things on my to do list (play Mario brothers, make up a new secret code, choreograph more to my dance, yell at my two dogs for barking at everything that goes down our street, make a sockmonkey, journal, find time to draw, or even check out what’s new on geekcrafts.com) I was petting one of my 3 cats, Dexter (who never leaves my side), but then I got a call from Bailey, and it ended up going from a 5-minute-talk to a 2 hour debate about library books! Haha, well it was fun anyways, and finally after it was all over, I walked in my room to go to bed and realized how much of a nerd I am with all the periodic table, physics, and Harry Potter posters I have up.:) If only everyday was like this...

Babysitting ideas
1.) Bake egg free cookies so they could eat some dough
2.) Go to a park or take a ball out in the yard (tennis, catch, etc.)
3.) Use bubbles, kids love chasing them
4.) Do a simple obstacle course in the backyard
5.) Do a special backyard picnic for lunch or dinner
6.) Hide a small object and have them find it-- play the hot and cold game especially if you're tired
7.) See how many jumping jacks, how long they can hop on one foot etc etc--it will tire them out
8.) Make goop/oobleck and let them play with it
9.) Put food coloring in milk, use small clean paint brushes to paint bread with the milk, put in toaster, the color will stay and they can eat their creation
10.) Do a simple scavenger hunt with picture clues
11.) Jump on the trampoline
12.) Watch a movie
13.) Read stories with them
14.) Play board games
15.) Play with the dogs
16.) Puppet show behind the couch
17.) Play dress up
18.) Draw
19.) Make up a game outside
20.) Play house
21.) I-spy
22.) Hula Hoops
23.) Jump ropes
24.) Roller skates or skateboard
25.) Hide and go Seek
26.) Video Games
27.) Relay Races
28.) Origami
29.) Paper Airplanes
30.) Red light green light
31.) Mother may I
32.) Red rover
33.) Watch the clouds
34.) Sing songs
35.) Dance
36.) Play freeze dance with music
37.) Wii Sports
38.) Chalk
39.) Get a white t-shirt and decorate it with fabric markers
40.) Stickers and coloring books

Mrs. Calise's Accordian Card
Heyo!! Over the weekend, I made this cute card for my student teacher. Today is her last day (awww) and so I thought that I could try this card. I started with a 5 1/2" by 12" piece of card stock. (light green). Then, I scored straight down at 2", 4", 8", and 10". Next, I folded the score lines forward and backward just like the picture shows. Using the measurements in the layout picture (top left)**, I stamped, cut, and glued all of the pieces onto the original 5 1/2" by 12" piece of green paper that I started with. After all of it was glued on, I opened and closed it to make sure that it worked, and then wrote my message on the far right panel.
