Thank you for this practical and fun writing exercise. I am going to use it this first week of school. I especially like the idea of the top 20/bottom 13! I think my high school students will find it intriguing :)

I love all of Tracee's products. She is very creative and always on-target.
Tracee is definitely a life saver! I used the 2012 New Year's Resolutions and loved it so much I was going to recreate it! Thanks for saving me so much time.

Hi Tracee!
Where do you get your neat fonts (esp. the big numbers)? Also, do you make all your clip art or do you get it from someplace?
I love your units! :)

Hi Karla! I make my own clip art (the background in 2013 is from my Funky frames - I just adjusted the coloring after I placed it on the page to make it bolder & brighter, then put a transparent square over it. I design using Mac's Pages). My fonts are from Kimberly Geswein - she has a store here on TpT now. :) I love all of hers! If you do a search of her name or KG fonts (also Janda fonts - she carries both), you'll find her! Thanks for your interest! -Tracee

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Subject Area:
I've been teaching at my current public high school for twelve years, and have a total of 16 years experience. Most of my experience is teaching high school English and journalism classes; however, for several years I taught an art history class. I teach all levels--from honors students to special education students; therefore, I'm constantly modifying my assignments to fit my students' needs.
