It is pretty yuck but I bet the crickets are worse. <br /><br />I am a Texas teacher too and have been trained in Capturing Kids Hearts...in fact, at the top of my blog I have "before you reach their heads, you have to touch their hearts". I believed that even before the training. I am using Conscious Discipline now which is 1,000x even more amazing. It is all about building your school family. =)<br /><br />I am happy to be your newest follower. I would love for you to hop over and visit me when you get the chance.<br /><br /><br />Heather<br /><i><b><a href="http://heathersfirstgradeheart.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Heather's Heart</a></b></i>Heather's Hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03275285984118559108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5350334243255658257.post-57364766095036576802012-08-04T23:11:03.629-05:002012-08-04T23:11:03.629-05:00Thanks for following me!

I can't wait to really go through your blog and catch up on what I've missed since I'm a new follower. =) And, seriously, I love your little pb&j signature that you use! It's so stinkin' cute! hehe<br /><br />Sarah♥ S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11709736520537769785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5350334243255658257.post-55473574970732261022012-08-04T23:09:22.400-05:002012-08-04T23:09:22.400-05:00Thanks for following!

They work GREAT with my 5 year old (I started when he was 3, and it worked great then, too!!) and I've even used them on 4th and 5th graders when subbing. It's amazing the honesty you can get from them when you ASK them, rather than TELL them what they are doing wrong. They really take ownership and responsibility for their actions. Pretty soon--I learned in my 3-month, 4th grade long-term sub position--you only have to ask the first question, and they self-correct. It's amazing! =)<br /><br />Good luck with it! And, thanks again for stopping by! <br />Sarah♥ S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11709736520537769785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5350334243255658257.post-90341217862077916872012-08-04T23:06:51.228-05:002012-08-04T23:06:51.228-05:00Thanks for the l♥ve!

I just hope that they have it under control, and I don't have to be responsible for clearing out the "remains"! *shudder* ugh! I will have to stop by sometime and really give your blog a good, thorough going through! I have SO many new ones on my "to catch up with" list! hehe<br /><br />Thanks again for stopping by!<br />Sarah♥ S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11709736520537769785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5350334243255658257.post-91303386576403134512012-08-04T23:04:44.781-05:002012-08-04T23:04:44.781-05:00Yay!

OMG- cricket epidemic? I would die. That being said I have noticed many more bugs this year at my school (nothing like an epidemic though!). <br /><br />I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these three questions: What are you doing? What are you supposed to be doing? What are you going to do about it? What a great,concise way to get kids to think and redirect them. Totally using it!<br /><br />I am a new follower!<br />Mandy<br />http://mandys-tips-4-teachers.blogspot.com/Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01545875783687727542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5350334243255658257.post-71048491611929254272012-08-04T00:33:48.321-05:002012-08-04T00:33:48.321-05:00Found you on the Currently linky, and am your newe...Found you on the Currently linky, and am your newest follower! So sorry to hear about the crickets - that sounds just awful...especially to someone like me who is terrified of critters. And they smell??? I had no idea!! Good luck with your room set-up (& the crickets)! Stop by sometime! :)<br /><br />Kelly<br /><a href="http://thefirstgradefairytales.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">First Grade Fairytales</a>Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03938957240406616994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5350334243255658257.post-18958899178980485412012-08-04T00:28:51.162-05:002012-08-04T00:28:51.162-05:00Hey Sarah!

I can relate to those crazy crickets! They're just plain ole gross! <br /><br />Stop by and see me! Shoot me an email sometime!
