All of Mary's theme units were great additions to my second grade program. They were especially helpful during that last week before vacation, when students needed some variety in our routine. Students worked on these activities independently during those busy days before break. If you are wondering whether to purchase these or not, I bought all of the sets and my students enjoyed them.

For more than 30 years I have taught primary grades in a K-8 elementary district in the greater Los Angeles area. I have been teaching third grade since 1991. I also serve as pianist for our school's Glee Club. I have developed a very teacher-friendly series of 32- page reproducible instructional units which include one booklet for each school month (Sept.--June), 3 multicultural units--(Martin Luther King's Birthday, Cinco de Mayo, and Chinese New Year). My USA geography 32 -page units cover all major regions of the United States. These units have been in use since 1983, and have been very popular with both students and teachers. They have withstood the "test of time" and are not trendy and easily outdated. • VISIT MY OWN WEBSITE TODAY, DIRECT PURCHASE AND DOWNLOAD ALL BOOKLETS AT WWW.READYSETS.COM
