I wasn't expecting so many different themes in one product...thanks! I also liked how you included some extra activities using the word banks. A great resource!

I purchase the writing word banks and paper for each month and I LOVE them! I was a little disappointed that the February writing pack didn't have the graphic organizer like the other packs. Overall I'm very pleased with the pack! The funny thing is, not only did I miss the graphic organizer but my students did as well! They are used to writing their thoughts/words into the organizer and then start their writing. They were asking me for the "bubble map". Is there anyway you could make me a graphic organizer for the February pack? Mainly Valentine's day, Washington, and Lincoln. I would GREATLY appreciate it! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THESE!!!
Absolutely... I would be happy to make the addition- The February Pack was the first writing pack I ever created - and the bubble maps came later - I will update the February Writing as soon as I get a chance.
Right now I am working on a Animals of Africa Informational Writing Pack that include a variety of maps, pre-writing and drafting templates, as well as word banks and adorable craftivities to match to peek over the top of the final published drafts.
Possibly over the summer - Unfortunately I am just too swamped right now as this is my first year teaching 1st grade and I am building my curriculum day by day this year.
