Being Boo'd...

... can be such a *fun* experience!




Carson-Dellosa Publishing shares its teacher version of this sneaky-fun all-treats-no-tricks activity, offering both color and black and white versions of the "boo note" as pdf's here.

(Psst, they're also having a 75% off clearance sale!)

HOW TO BOO:

It’s a fun little game that’s easy to do. You could make someone’s day and share a treat, too!

1.       Log on to www.carsondellosa.com/boo and print out two copies of the “You’ve Been Boo’d!” Ghost PDF.

2.       Prepare two Halloween goodie bags filled with treats.

3.       Secretly leave the “You’ve Been Boo’d” Ghost and a bag of treats for two teachers in your school.

4.       Pass this posting on to your teacher friends at other schools.

Lego-licious

Let me make this perfectly clear: I'm *not* a Lego-Maniac.

Seriously.

No, REALLY.

For *whatever* reason, these caught my eye:



A Lego camera (along with other Lego gadgets) over at designboom...


Mike Stimpson creates original Lego scenes and recreates famous imagery (go look, I didn't want to risk "lifting" his awesome artwork)...

A rolling cookie cutter...



...and an ice tray...



...and of course, check out what Dan documents with his camera and Legos over at a Lego a Day...

Band/Album Cover Meme

Too fun! Pretend you have a band.
First, go to:

1: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first article title on the page is the name of your band.

2. http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four words of the very last quote will be the title of your album.

The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4. Put it all together with your graphics program of choice, and please post on your blog for all to see!

5. ROCK ON! (Okay, so my album cover looks a bit mellow, I'm probably featured on an easy listening channel!)
