i teach fifth grade and just pulled out the sonogram picture and the kids screamed! it was so cute....

don't know if third graders would know what a sonogram pic is though?

i teach middle school so i cant imagine i will make any announcement.

But i think 3rd graders will be so excited by your news.

I'm a middle school teacher and made my homeroom cupcakes with pink and blue sprinkles on them and told them that the cupcakes had a message in them. They figured it out pretty quickly and it was SO adorable!

You guys are all so creative! I love your ideas!

As for me, I teach at the HS level and am 28 weeks and haven't told my students yet. Only about 5 students know. I am normally quite private about my personal life and don't chat with my students about things so I haven't said anything.

I am sure that I will have to say something soon but for now I am not discussing it with them.

I can't believe that haven't noticed you are pregnant yet! You must be carrying small (lucky girl!)

I haven't told my class yet- I was thinking of usinng their morning work. I usually give them a few math problems on the board, so I thought I would write one where they had to use the number of people in the room as part of the problem....then let them go nuts when I keep telling them they have the wrong answer. They are pretty sharp, so I think at least one would figure it out (they are dying to know why I keep having drs. appts. anyway- for a while they thought I had cancer!)
