Hello everyone! I know some of you are lucky enough to have Open House BEFORE school starts but not us. Our Open House took place 11 days into the school year. I had to have something cute for the hallway. I pinterested (that is a verb now, right?). I looked in my files, searched blogs, pulled old Mailbox magazines out...nothing grabbed me.
My firsties always love David Shannon books like crazy at
the beginning of the year. I saw a David pattern online, remembered a poster I had in a drawer and ding ding ding! Idea!! I have searched the world over and can't find where I got this pattern. If it's yours or you know where I got it, PLEASE let me know. I hate that I'm not going to be giving someone credit for this. I've got to do better about writing down where I get things.
UPDATE: Yay! I found it! The pattern is from Angie Neal's TPT store. Here's the link:

The pattern said to have blue stripes for the shirt, but I just passed out their markers and let them have at it. They were so excited to use those markers! I let them put as much or as little hair as they wanted. I'm pretty sure I have a few vampire and zombie Davids here. Love them!
I cut a piece of copy paper in half and let them design a book for David to be reading. Some of them copied books from our classroom library and some designed their own. They turned out so stinking cute!
A few closer..
Take care,
