Snow Day in May and a FREEBIE!

Happy Mother's Day to all of you wonderful, hard-working moms!  I don't know how you do it all.  :)  A special Happy Mother's Day to my beautiful mama and mother-in-law too!  I'm a lucky girl!


It's been a very busy week.  I was working on my 3 trillion things to do.  I did manage to cross off a couple of items cross off a whole bunch of things.... 


I just posted my Snow Day in May!? pack and I think it's adorable!!   Yep, you read that right....we're having a snow day in May!  I live in Ohio and we usually get a snow day or two, but this year we didn't get any!  I'm not complaining about the nice weather at all, but who doesn't enjoy a snow day every once in awhile?? :)


Well, my kiddos and I thought it would be fun to create our own snow day so we're having one in May!  We're going to be reviewing some first grade skills with some snow day themed fun.  


Everything in this pack is ready to use!  There is no cutting or laminating to do!  That's what we need at the end of the year....simple and ready to go.  The only materials you will need are construction paper for the snowman and snow cone ingredients!


Here is a look at what's in the pack along with a list of what you'll get:
Page 1- Cover
Page 2- Table of Contents
Pages 3-4 Teacher Info Pages
Page 5- Main Idea
Page 6- Author’s Purpose

And, since it's Mother's Day I'm adding this freebie:



Just make sure you leave me a comment if you take it!  :)

I've included an easy snow cone recipe in here to end the day with, but I just bought snow cone flavoring.  It's up to you!  There is also a parent letter because my kiddos will be allowed to wear their winter items if they want to and bring sunglasses to wear while we enjoy the snow cones!  

If you live in an area that doesn't get any snow, this could be your chance for a snow day!!  At the very least, it will add some fun to your end of the year routine...and review some important skills while you're at it.  

I'm off to celebrate with my mama and my mother-in-law!  Enjoy your day moms, soon-to-be moms, and wanna-be moms!  :)
