"I Am" Poem outline (template available on the blog link) - This has been a WONDERFUL writing activity to do with my students over the years. It is successful with first graders (the first paragraph works best) and fourth graders!
1) These are really funny. 2) I really like how it looks with the different fonts, colors, and graphics. Also, I like how each rectangle is separated but it's not the same all the way through.
Chocolate Lava Cake (Crock Pot) - I think this was the best lava cake I ever tasted and it was very easy to make. My husband thought it wasn't sweet enough but I thought it was perfect when vanilla ice cream was added to it.
