Hey Grade 5's,

The results from the egg challenge are in....


Check out the video for the answer to today's challenge. There was a strange Easter Bunny sighting today. He was a rather plump one and didn't have much for hair on his head... Good thing there was a LIGER on the premises to take care of business... Thanks to all those who participated!


Congrats to Kaislynn who is the WINNER of this challenge! Only 5 eggs off...

Math fun from home


We have played 4 games of 301. Series is tied 2-2. Game 3 is at 3:30 today. I will post some video footage and the result tonight. 



April Fools Prank

This is my "go-to" prank when it comes to April Fools! I can't do it anymore because we changed the taps on our sink.  I got Mrs.Huseby with this prank at least 2-3 times over the years... You wrap an elastic band around the spray nozzle and when someone turns on the tap they get BLASTED. It's a classic for sure. Hopefully you can get some self-isolation pranks in today... If you manage to prank someone or get pranked by someone else, please post it on your blog!

When nobody is watching... Wrap an elastic band around the spray nozzle. Guaranteed to soak them! Just be careful... The one year I had forgot that I did it and I PRANKED MYSELF...

Check this video out for some prank ideas!


Math Fun at HOME

Scavenger Hunt

Here are some pics of my scavenger hunt! Hope you enjoy....

Did Mr.Huseby actually bake this Rice Krispie cake? 

Chilling out and reading a book about President Trump!

Doing a little bit of journal writing at the kitchen table... So many deep thoughts!

This is a quote that we have above our kitchen table. Even though I wasn't the one who picked it... I really do like it!

This was Ben and Harps on Spring Break. We had a kitchen car wash going on. We even made signs.  Bring your car on down to Surf's Up Car Wash and we will socially distance wash it for you!

Rhettro and I braved the cold temps for some target pracky. We had to sauce it over the strider's and try to land it in the bucket.  We both FAILED miserably.
