I am a grad school intern putting together a literacy packet for literacy awareness night. This packet is too lengthy to make 150+ copies but it definitely gives me so many great ideas to put into my packet. Thanks!
March 27, 2012
Erin Wing (TpT Seller)
I'm glad the ideas are helpful! If your packet is for parents, you can also let them know they'll find more literacy ideas for home at my blog, www.smalltypes.com Thanks, and good luck with your presentation.

Tales of an Elementary Teacher (TpT Seller)
I purchased this to give me some ideas on what to bring with me on home visits. I printed off some pages and gave them directly to the students and parents. The kids especially loved the finger puppets! :)
March 22, 2012
Erin Wing (TpT Seller)
Great idea to use them for home visits! The finger puppets were a last-minute addition to the packet, so I'm glad they are a hit for your kids!

Hi Erin,
My name is Maria Yetts and I have a quick question for you: What software do you use to design your products? Is it a software and fonts that are bought separately? All I have is Microsoft word which is not very appealing.. All of your work looks pretty cool, ie "Read and write at home".
Thanks in advance for your answer!

Thanks, Maria! I use Microsoft Word as well. I download free fonts from places like www.fontsquirrel.com and www.helloliteracy.com, and I've purchased clipart from various online sources like www.mygrafico.com and etsy.
I appreciate the compliment! Thank you!

Is any of this material available in spanish?
October 7, 2012
Erin Wing (TpT Seller)
Sorry, no. I wish I spoke Spanish and could do it. Maybe I can find someone to translate down the line. I agree, it would be wonderful to send home to Spanish speaking parents!

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Subject Area:
I have 10 years of teaching experience in the elementary grades, and 8 years as a parent. I'm passionate about creating products that combine what I know about education from both perspectives. Before staying home with my three young boys, I taught grades 3-6. I also subbed in grades K-12. I currently blog at www.smalltypes.com, where I exercise my "teacher brain" by sharing tips for parents to help them create a print-rich home. I keep up with best practices through continuing education; I volunteer in my sons' classrooms; and like most parents, I do plenty of after-school teaching to support my own kids' learning at home.
