Hello, Hello! THREE random things to cover in this post! =)
ONE:
Better late then never, I have the winner of Jules Howes's book, Catty Wompus.
The lucky winner just happens to be one of my favorite bloggers!
Congrats Jackie @ Third Grade's a Charm!
I will be emailing you shortly. =)
TWO:
Even though everyone else is talking about it, I must take the time to talk about the AMAZING things I found in the target dollar spot yesterday. Wowza! I went crazy. They had all sorts of educational tools (especially for math) that I plan on using in my BUILD boxes this year. I also got some super cute Dr. Seuss themed pencils for back to school AND three books for my classroom library. I am headed to another Target today to see if I can pick up some other good finds. =)
Left to Right:
1) Oh The Places You'll Go Pencils
2) Quick Quizzes - These came by grade level and for math and reading.
I plan to use these for quick finishers during center time.
3) Wipe Clean Math Flash Cards
4) Monster Sandwich Bags - Saving these for Halloween treats!
5) Multiplication wipe clean practice books
6) Three patriotic books for my library
7) Math flash cards
8) Extra dice
THREE:
My school just sent all the teachers the book The Leader in Me by Stephen Covey to read during the rest of our summer break. We are doing a book study on it and will spend a day discussing, etc. during one of our professional development days during back to school. Have you guys read this book? Opinions?
Wow, random post today!
I am proud if you stuck with me! Hah! =)
Hope everyone has a wonderful Tuesday!
Nice Target finds!! I just went there today & we didn't seem to have half of the things that I saw there, unless they were out already, but our Target seems to be the last to get everything.

Love Target dollar spot! My post yesterday was about the books and flash cards that I bought there. I will definitely be checking it a few times a week for other great ideas. The Dollar Tree is my other favorite, cheap, school supply store. I bought all my baskets from there, for book baskets, my library books, etc. All bright and colorful!
