Nothing drive's me more nut's than when friend's add -'s to any word that end's in -s! OK, that last sentence is making me twitch, and I'm having a really hard time allowing it in this post!!
I'm a high ranking member of the Grammar Police. Here's a PSA for today:
The bunnies think it's pretty hilarious when I put on my "angry face," jump up and down, and shout this sentence at them. I'm half joking, but mostly serious. Why is it that kids {and some adults too!} always stick in an apostrophe whenever a word ends with -s?To combat this problem, I created this:

I'd love to give away a few copies! Leave a comment {including your email address!} telling me what's your favorite thing to do at the beach. The hubs and I are headed to Cabo San Lucas in 99 days {without kids!!}, and I need to start getting mentally prepared :)
I want one of those!! The beach? what is that?? It's been a LONG time but I LOVE the sand, waves, shells :)
ReplyDeleteHave a fun trip.. I'm jealous!

Tori's Teacher Tips
I always dread teaching the apostrophe for possessives because right after I teach the lesson it shows up before every "s"! Your unit looks fantastic.
ReplyDeleteIf I were at the beach with no kids my favorite thing to do would be read.
When I am with my kids my favorite thing to do is to use the boogie boards!

Beach in Wisconsin! You don't live in Pulaski like me! My favorite activities at the beach-sand writing and kite flying!

I love reading on the beach, though holding a sleeping baby on the beach is right up there.

This looks AWESOME! I am an unofficial member of the grammar police as well :) Incorrect grammar irks me!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing to do at the beach is at the end of the day, after we've spent a day splashing in the waves and playing in the sand, I love to change into fresh clothes, buy ice cream, and walk along the beach watching the sun set. Ahhh brings me back to my honeymoon in the Cayman Islands :)

This looks great Angela! I took Fin to the beach for the first time last summer and she loved it. I guess my favorite thing to do would be to hold a giggling girl while waves crash around us. :)

When we go to the beach, my boys and I love playing in the sand and making sand castles!

Have a good holiday, Angela! I like to build sandcastles with the kids when we are at the beach.

My favorite thing would be to listen to the waves and read a book while enjoying the warm sunshine!

I love walking on the beach. Slowly. Listening to the ocean meet the sand. Breathing slows, stress dissipates. Have fun!

I love diving into the water, then floating on top of it! Our water is so majestic!
