I began teaching my "one" special today....I actually teach two specials a day for six weeks at a time (then I have six weeks off of both of them, so it really comes out to the equivalent of one special by the time the year is over).  My specials schedule is below:

I also decided to do some 21st century technology integration with the Geography and Map skills they have been working on in class.....so I created a website for my 3rd Grade Building Thinking Skills Special to keep track of the lessons. Today was lesson 1, an online KWL Survey about Geography.  Some of their responses are below:
