Let's Get Acquainted Linky ~ Two of my bloggy friends

Oh, how I love that I truly only have one more Monday left! I even had today off because Ginny Beth was sick with a strange fever all day yesterday. I figured it was strep, but after over 3 hours at "urgent" care, no strep! Today she woke up fever free and playing and singing. Fun, fun! I have been able to get a lot accomplished today, which is great!

I love Latoya's {Flying Into First Grade} weekly linky parties! They are so much fun! This week, we are showcasing two of our bloggy friends. Oh, how do I decide?

I have met some great friends in the blogging world, and here are two that I go to with any question I need answered!

I love talking to Melissa from Don't Let the Teacher Stay Up Late! She is a fellow Virginia blogger and reading specialist, and we actually have a LOT in common, down to where we are from! She has some great ideas, especially for those older struggling readers!

With testing season in the midst, I love using her "Brain Plops" to help students prepare for those tests!

Another wonderful blogging buddy is Jennie from JD's Rockin' Readers. She is a reading specialist like me and has some wonderful ideas that I can use with the younger crowd! I was so excited when I figured out that we share the same birthday! Wow! What a small world!

I love using her Interactive Tab Books with my first graders! The kids had so much fun with them! Click here to grab the freebie short a book, and here to grab the entire set!
