The Liebster Award WOOHOO!!

I want to give a big ole' THANK YOU to Heather @ Loose Shoelaces for giving me the Liebster Award!!
Seeing that I don't blog as much as I would like (note to self...I AM going to do BETTER) I am always thrilled when someone thinks awesome things about my blog!!

The goal of the award is to spotlight up-and-coming blogs with less than 200 followers. The rules are:
  1. copy and paste the award on your blog
  2. thank the giver and link back to them
  3. reveal your top 5 picks and let them know by leaving a comment on their blog
  4. hope that your followers will spread the love to other bloggers
These are the five blogs that I think are firing up on the blog scene (in no particular order):

Fun in Fourth Grade- I really love Cindy's passion for teaching. She is guinely concerned about her student's success and makes sure that she does what she can to make it happen. Go Cindy!!

My Life as a Fifth Grade Teacher- Lindsay is SUPER cool because she is a TEXAS teacher!! Whoop! Whoop! I think she has good ideas and I can totally relate to some of the stuff she deals with. I definitely check out her blog to see if I can get new info.

Imagine in 4th Grade- Dawn is really new to the blog world. The fact the she started a teaching blog to connect with other teachers reminds me why I started to blog. Happy Blogging Dawn!!

Shepherd's Shining Stars- I LOVE her integration of technology!! Some of the sites she has recommended  and classroom activities are pretty cool.

Wells' Tale of a 4th Grade Nothing- Super cute blog! She has been apart of the blog world for a couple of months. She has gooooood give-a-ways, so go and check her out!!

Check out these blogs bloggey peeps because you will come across some GOOD stuff !!

Currently Linky Party with Oh' Boy 4th Grade!

This couldn't have come at a better time! I speak for myself when I say that the electric pencil sharpener that I purchased in September for this school year is already a bust! I thought we could atleast get through the year, but HA!
I thought WRONG!! It's so bad that the CREEPY thing runs on its own when you you plug it up.Yep that's RIGHT on its own....NO pencil ....No nothin'! We have to plug it in and then unplug  it when we use it. HOW ABOUT THAT FOR 30 BUCK-A-ROOS!!

Oh' Boy 4th Grade is having a CURRENTLY linky party for gaining more than 1,000 followers! How awesome is that!!
Go on over and link up and enter to win a pretty cool pencil sharpener for your classroom!! I know I could definitely use one! Anything would be better than the one I have in my classroom now!!
