April Showers Bring May Flowers

Hi Friends,
Happy April Fool's Day! 

I can't believe it's April already!  Where did this school year go?  If you are looking for a easy and cheap April decoration for your classroom, here's an idea for you.  We all know the saying, "April showers bring May flowers," right?  Well, pick up some colorful umbrellas from the Dollar Store/Dollar Tree and hang them upside down from the ceiling.  Here's a picture of mine hanging in my classroom. 

Very Hungry Caterpillar

Hi Friends!

Don't you just love Eric Carle's book The Very Hungry Caterpillar?  It's one of my favorites!

Last summer I was on Pinterest and found a picture of the Very Hungry Caterpillar made out of

tissue paper.  It was a decoration for a Very Hungry Caterpillar theme birthday party. 

I liked it so much that I decided to make one to hang in my classroom.  It was very easy to make.

Here's how it turned out.
