I'm linking up with Doodle Bugs Teaching for her Five for Friday Linky...but I'm doing Six for Saturday because I'm Late with a capital "L".
We have 7 1/2 Days left (with kiddos) and according to me - this is The Never Ending School Year. Many of my colleagues are teaching a 3-week STEM camp. I know the money is good it will be cool, but I just couldn't do it. The summer is my only chance to be a SAHM. My girl is only 4 and no amount of money is worth the time I spend with her.
This pic is from her ballet recital last weekend. It was soooo cute! I could definitely see her growth since December's recital. |
My entire week was Space & Astronaut filled. We began by reading about Ellen Ochoa. My kiddos made these awesome K-L Charts (I took out the W due to lack of space) about Astronauts and Ellen Ochoa.
The kiddos really enjoyed it. I didn't do a bulletin board because my items have to be taken down and inventoried by next Wednesday...maybe next year.
On Friday, our 4th & 5th Graders took a Field Trip to NASA in Houston. Yes, Houston. They left at 5 a.m. and they were expected to return at 10 p.m. AHHHHH I'm sure they had a great field trip and I was asked to go, but I couldn't because I had to pick up my daughter from daycare.
While they were at NASA, we moved outside and used chalk to draw astronauts floating in space.
We launched rockets too (sorry, I didn't take any pics of the process, but it was AWESOME).
This Little Piggy is enjoying her relaxing weekend!

That sounds like a really cool field trip, but I would be in the same boat as you! I love your space activities. Looks like fun! I also agree with summer school and it being good money. I can't give up staying at home with my kids during the summer either.
