In honor of my husband and his love for football, I decided to make a little Super Bowl buddy! Use him to help your students predict the outcome of this year's Super Bowl! Or, create your own football buddy in YOUR team colors, and write about your prediction for next year's Super Bowl win! ;)
This cutie {plus writing prompts} can be found on TpT and Teacher's Notebook!
Today was a fun day. I took my littles on a field trip! I love field trips :) Except for.... the bus ride. I have a couple school bus horror stories, but I will only share one.
To make a long, horrifying story short: Once, on the way home, our bus driver decided to stop in the middle of a four-lane highway. Yes, I said stop. In the middle of a FOUR-LANE HIGHWAY. With tractor trailers whizzing by. And then he tried to get out of the bus. Yes, I said out of the bus.
I was screaming, my teacher friend was screaming, and one of the parents in front who realized what was going on was screaming. "You can't STOP here! GO! Oh my God, drive!! You're going to get us killed!!"
The driver only spoke Italian. No one on the bus spoke Italian. I think he forgot how to get back to school? I don't know. Finally we somehow convinced him to get back on the bus and keep on moving. But the entire time all I could picture was the 6:00 news story that could have been.
*Sigh* Does anyone else have a school bus horror story to share?
And last but certainly NOT least..... Thank you to everyone who entered my 400 follower giveaway! You're amazing :) Unfortunately, there can only be one winner:
I'll be contacting you, girl!

First of all, LOVE the superbowl craftivity! Second, at Beth's building today one of the teachers tried to beat the bus out of the parking lot and lost. No real damage and no one hurt, but pretty funny and embarassing none the less. Have a great rest of your day!

Cute ideas! I love those little football players. We had a bus back into our car once...in the parking lot. Someone threw someone else's purse out the window and instead of sending the kid 50 feet to get it he BACKED UP...not so fun.

Oh my gosh, I love it! This is adorable, and my boys will LOVE it. Your craft patterns are too cute!
Your bus story gave me chills. Field trips are fine, but I HATE the bus rides. I'd rather walk. Ha. The kids are always wild and usually there's always a bus driver who doesn't know where to go. I've certainly been on trips where I thought we were going to wreck, but I've never had a bus driver stop in the middle of the road and get out. Wow! Glad yall' are OK!

So precious! Last year as we were leaving for our field trip, we spent the night at the zoo, the tornado sirens started going off. Talk about a some stressed out teachers, parents and principals! Of course, nothing as bad as your story! So glad this year's trip went much better!
This is adorable!!!
