I also love to look at other classroom setups...a bit of an addiction for many of us, I fear. :) It just about killed me to trash that lamp this summer. The colored parts were dry rotted or something...from the lightbulb heat. But I had it for 8 fantastic years!<br />I can't remember what happened to those fish! Don't know if they didn't survive or if I gave them away. I haven't had a tank since then, but I do miss having one. The running water was so relaxing to listen to in the classroom. :)<br />Happy Satruday!Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00838067074140816743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6518460914610080122.post-59059648064813482222012-06-30T10:16:27.529-07:002012-06-30T10:16:27.529-07:00Heather --

Every year when I talk to my students about letting the stories they read come to life, I tell them about my obsession with the BSC and The Sweet Valley Twins. I seriously felt like a member of the BSC and a triplet to the twins. Good memories!! I also remember my obession with R.L. Stine...we must be the same age!!!<br />I'm not familiar with The Monster at the End of the Book. I'll have to find it. :)Thanks for sharing!Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00838067074140816743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6518460914610080122.post-60280023473235362862012-06-29T21:52:12.462-07:002012-06-29T21:52:12.462-07:00Love looking at how everyone sets their classrooms...Love looking at how everyone sets their classrooms up.

The Monster at the End of the Book was a favorite. I would sit on my daddy's lap and he would ham it up for me and I would laugh and laugh! The Babysitters Club series is what hooked me on being a life long reader though, followed by R.L. Stine's Fear street series!<br />Heather<br /><b><i><a href="http://kickinitinkinder.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Kickin' it in Kinder</a></i></b>Heather @ Kickin' It With Classhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11368770988366298010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6518460914610080122.post-72853536476853715552012-06-28T08:33:55.699-07:002012-06-28T08:33:55.699-07:00Hi Betsy - just found you and am your newest foll...Hi Betsy - just found you and am your newest follower.
