Follower Appreciation Sale Item and Worksheet Wednesday #6

Today I am continuing my Follower Appreciation Sale. Thank you to all of my followers!!


Today my 50% off item is The Silly Bear Hunt!


It is the best-selling item in my store. 
My kids love it!

Also, I am linking up with The Teaching Tribune for Worksheet Wednesday

Today I am offering a friendly letter template that has clue words to jog your students' memories of the different parts of a friendly letter. It includes one of Krista Wallden's cute new Zoo Animals...a giraffe. 

Isn't he adorable? This is a preview freebie of the set of "Zoo Animal" Friendly Letter Writing Templates that I will be posting by July 12th...fingers crossed! Of course, I am working on THREE different animal activities. Why do we work on a million things at once? It is a smidgen difficult to get just one of those things completely done. I would imagine that I am not alone in this. :-)
Anyway, if you would like a copy of this cute giraffe paper, please click {HERE}. If you are in the market for more friendly letter templates that are seasonal, I have a few spring sets as well as summer sets that are even in a bundle. I guess I should bundle my spring sets...





Add that to my list. I need to be thinking about setting up my room for the school year. But I love doing summery-type things. Like going to lunch with my friend today. We teachers need to fit those things in. Whilst we can. 

Back to the link up...
For Week 6, there are all kinds of free Summer worksheets listed.


Hop on over to The Teaching Tribune for their linky to get some great free summertime worksheet resources!


What a great deal! Thank you team from The Teaching Tribune!

Have a great day!

A Writing Map-tivity

My students LOVED dancing and singing to Dr. Jean's song, "The Cool Bear Hunt." Every year they get so engaged in the song and the order of events on the hunt. They also have a great time creating a map to the bear's cave, complete with compass rose and map key. Since "craftivity" has become a common word among teachers, I decided to call this a "map-tivity." Who coined the word "craftivity" anyway?


Here are some student examples of our map-tivity:



If you would like to check out this map and writing resource in my TpT store, please click {HERE}. I am adding a collage preview that I didn't have the first time I posted about this activity. 
After the transformation. Isn't that bear so cute?!


I decided to wait on the opinion writing activity for a few weeks while we continue with maps and "Before There was a Georgia" activities like naming the regions and rivers in our state and how they impacted where the Native Americans lived and where the first European settlers decided to live. 

Have a great day!

Teachers Pay Teachers

Hi Everyone!

I have finally opened my store on TpT! I have had ideas for a while, however, the technology piece is slowing me down a bit. My adorable husband is pretty savvy and has saved the day. Of course school has started, so that takes up most of our energy and brain cells. So, eventually I will have some more things posted in my store.

For now I have my first free product that you can get if you click on the picture.





I also have one paid product that you can check out if you click on that picture. I will post pictures of my classroom examples soon.





Enjoy the rest of your Labor Day weekend!
