Sunday Scoop in April

I'm here linking to The Sunday Scoop this week. I've read the bloggers who linked up before me and am impressed by all we do on in a day or plan to do in a week. I am inspired every Sunday when I read through. I love getting a glimpse at others' lives.

This coming week I'm on spring break. The most important thing for me is that I feel accomplished at the end of break when I head back for the last ten week stretch of school. I find it so easy these days to be overwhelmed by all there is to do. People say to relax to recharge. My recharge comes when I get things done, and have a plan of action and less to do when we kick into full swing again. It will be a bonus if I can do that in a leisurely way this coming week. I'm almost happy to see many days of rain ahead in the forecast as it will help me stay busy inside and not be coaxed out. And with milder temps, surely we won't see any snow!

The Sunday Scoop on Dr. Jean!

Thanks to Teaching Trio for this fun Sunday Scoop linky!

Well, there's nothing too exciting about my three Have-tos and my two Hope-tos.  Pretty self-explanatory. But let me tell you about my Happy-to!

Lookie, Lookie who I got to visit!

I knew of Dr. Jean before blogs even existed, I think!

Some family business took me home and it just so happened that Dr. Jean was in town nearby, so I bopped in and said hello.  If you haven't been to one of her conferences, you really gotta go because it's a treat. You'll hear about early childhood education at it's finest and walk away with no less than a million ideas to use with your kiddos. I just sit there grinning and appreciating the fact that I get to work with young children... and writing down notes as fast as I can, of course :)

If she's not coming your way you can still check out her blog. She is one of the most faithful daily bloggers and I get ideas every morning to use in my day. She has ALL sorts of resources on there, too. Spend a little time gathering treats by clicking on her button below.

And if you don't know Dr. Jean videos you can check her out here on my Pinterest Brain Break Board.

This is one of my kids' favorite brain break videos. They make up all sorts of new verses featuring other fruits and veges, usually getting inspired at snack time. They've even added an egg that goes "cheep" though I don't think we've had eggs for snack :)  I find my Pinterest Board one of the best places to store hand selected brain break videos. Pin away!

Now scoot on back now to The Sunday Scoop!
