Thursday was not only groundhog's day, it was
{brown} day! Hmm...somebody may have orchestrated that on purpose.
We made these cute
Cara Carroll inspired burrows and added a writing piece. {How adorable is
all of her stuff?!} But then, because I couldn't help thinking the burrows looked like bladders {bad cutting skills?!} I added fringe to the top. It looks like grass, right?
RIGHT???
We also created cute little groundhog ears {sentence strip with 2 construction paper ears!} and practiced popping up out of the ground. If you missed it, you can watch the actual proclamation online:
We had pretzel sticks for a brown snack and shared our hints for the brown items we brought from home.
Then we made these ah-dor-a-ble football players from
A Cupcake for the Teacher to write about the Superbowl. After all, what color is a football anyway?
Totally worth the $1 purchase. There are 4 different writing prompts and, while the pieces take some time to cut out, they were completely worth it. I took some major slack from my staff trying to figure out how to represent the teams {hello...they're both blue!} but finally figured it out thanks to Superbowl.com. And my coworker heckling.
Cute cute sideline fans no matter which team you choose to root for!
