It's About Time for FREEBIES!
It's about time, teachers, for
Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is almost here. This FREEBIE is perfect for upper grade classes.
POETRY POSSIBILITIES for MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. DAY contains 2 poems. Each poem is accompanied by custom designed teaching points covering a variety of skills. These poems are copy ready and, thus, may be added to your students’ poetry anthologies. The range of reading levels in these poems makes them appropriate for all intermediate classrooms and provides for differentiation.
It's also the time of year that classes celebrate the 100th day of school. Primary teachers will enjoy this FREEBIE!
There are 4 poems in Poetry Possibilities -- 100th Day of School Edition. Each poem has a teaching point related to poetry and teaching possibilities from multiple disciplines that are custom designed for them.
It will soon be Groundhog Day. I have 2 FREEBIES for that special day.
Groundhog Day Hink Pinks, Hinky Pinkies, & Hinkity Pinkities are the perfect way to celebrate this just-for-fun holiday in your intermediate classroom. Your students will work on language arts skills, critical thinking, and problem solving with these fun word riddles.
Groundhog Day Scrattle is a differentiated, math and literacy, learning center activity that combines word work with computation; individual effort with competition. As in Scrabble™, students use a set of letters to create words. After recording their words, they calculate each word’s score using the letter values. Then they engage a friend in a battle wherein they compare their scores using >, <, and =. The student with the most >s wins the battle! (SCRAbble + baTTLE = SCRATTLE!) Because this FREEBIE is differentiated, it is appropriate for ALL elementary classrooms.
Enjoy the FREEBIES! Coming soon will be more FREEBIES just for Valentine's Day.

Woo Hoo! I just have to tell you...
...that I am included on the TPT blog this week -- twice! Yes, twice!!
I am literally jumping for joy!
The first mention was for reaching a milestone in December. Since no newsletter was published last week in deference to the holidays, those of us who reached milestones were included in this week's list. The TPT blog recognized the milestone achievers and featured the product I put up for FREE in celebration. Because many of you may have missed that notification, I am leaving Winter Word Problems with Mortimer Moose as a free product until Tuesday, 1/6/15. Check it out before it goes back to full price. Mortimer is looking forward to meeting you!
The second mention is in the section about MLK, Jr. Day. Scroll down and you will see my FREE product, Poetry Possibilities -- MLK, Jr. Day. You can also find a little blurb from me about how my students and I celebrate this special day.
I feel so blessed to be included in the blog. What a way to start off the new year! To celebrate, all of my Poetry Possibilities units are reduced 20% this week.
