What Did They Say! Wednesday! A Linky Party!
One of the best parts of being a teacher is getting to hear all of the cute and innocent things that kids say!
This weeks story is proof that kids will support their teacher no matter what!
During prep, the teacher was handing out stickers after she taught them Social Studies. I was joking around trying to get a sticker from her, saying, "I was here the whole time, can I get a sticker too?!"
My kids ALL backed me up and said "Yeah, she was here the whole time and she behaved, she should get a sticker!" Meanwhile, I was barely in the classroom!
These kids are the best!
Now... its time to share your cute kids story from this week!
Rules for the Linky Party:

Go on a Leprechaun Hunt! A Freebie!
Growing up, I wasnt a big fan of St. Patricks Day... but last year, I fell in love with it! I had my students make traps so that we could catch a leprechaun and then a leprechaun visited, leaving our classroom a mess! The leprechaun even left us clues, sending us on a wild goose chase around the building... only to find out that the gold was in our classroom the whole time. It was AMAZING!
As one of my first items on TPT, I shared those clues as a freebie, but looking at them now, they are not so cute! So of course, I had to fix them up! Look at how cute they are now! Click any of the pictures to download them for free!
I also made a cute St. Patricks Day handwriting book, which is only $2. Be sure to check that out as well!

Change the Colors Features of items on Different Slides in PowerPoint!
We’ve all been there. You finish making a document (or want to re-design an older document), then you change your mind about what font or color scheme you want to use. Its such a pain to switch each item individually... but no worries, its super easy to switch!
This one won the poll by a landslide!
Please note, this doesnt work in all versions of PowerPoint. Please let me know if it works/doesnt work in your PowerPoint version!
If you want to know how to change the formatting in the first place, try these tutorials:
For next weeks poll, Ill be adding an option based on the request of one of my lovely coworkers... how to make a photo mosaic! I love making these as gifts! I cant take credit for having created this one, but it was easier to take it from the internet than to text all of my friends to see if theyd mind me posting their photos online!

My Most Memorable Moment!
There are so many fabulous linky parties out there right now! I just came across this one:
What a fabulous idea!
There are millions of moments I could choose from, but Im going to stick with one that is near and dear to my heart, and one that I actually have on video tape! I obviously cant post it, but it is ten times more amazing to hear the boys voice while he said it!
At centers, playing my sight words Uno game, one of the students who was sitting at my center group just looked up at me and said:
Student: Are you good at everything?!
Me: What!?
Student: I asked, are you good at everything?!
~~~I obviously grabbed my camera and started recording at this point!~~~
Me: What did you just ask me?
Student: Youre good at everything!
Me: Thanks! But what did you just ask me?
Student: Are you a superhero or something? Yeah, you must be a Superhero! Supergirl!
Gotta love it! I still look back at it and laugh to this day!
