I love that this packet has random numbers filled in so that kids have less chance of getting lost on their way to 1,000.

I was disappointed to find poorly written directions on the following pages:
Scientists Make Observations- Directions were written like this:
" List 2 questions could you ask about your object."
And on the Science Investigation Page -
Hypothesis: "What can you infer what the answer to the question will be?"

Hi Denise:
I was looking at your blog and I love your foldable plant and animal books. I was wondering what you specifically had underneath each one and if you are willing to share.

sallyo re: My Book of 1000
Hi Denise,
I purchased and downloaded your My Book of 1000. I put the booklets together for the kiddos and when they started using it they let me know that the page for the numbers 100-199 is missing. Would you please create that page for me so that I can complete my packets? Thanks

I downloaded your 2nd grade TEKS checklist and I LOVE it! However we have 6, 6 week periods so I was wondering if you could email me an editable version of this or if you have a 6 week version already that I just haven't seen?? saxtonpj@marshallisd.com Thanks so much!!

Cherrie McCain (TpT Seller) re: TEK Checklist for 2nd Grade
I really appreciate the effort you have made to create this checklist. Our school works in 6 weeks periods. I was wondering if you might consider creating a version of your file with columns for each six weeks. It would be so helpful. Thank you for your help.

Hi I am having problems downloading your TEK checklist. It could be my iPad. Please advise me. Thanks.

2nd Grade Ponderings (TpT Seller)
I downloaded it again. If you still have trouble, let me know and I'll email it to you. The new Math TEKS are not on there. I made this over the summer.
I hope it's something you can use. :)

Meredith Fenley re: TEK Checklist for 2nd Grade
Maybe it's just my computer, but when I try downloading this is says bad gateway. I've downloaded other things from TpT today, but this is what I was really excited about! Can you please see if it works for you? Thanks!

Melanie Morgan, Ed.D. (TpT Seller) re: TEK Checklist for 2nd Grade
Starting on page 5, the checklist says "1st 9 weeks, 2nd 9 weeks, 3rd 9 weeks, 1st 9 weeks". Can the last column of "1st 9 weeks" be updated to "4th 9 weeks" on pages 5 - 25? This is exactly what I was looking for (and I will leave positive feedback, too.). Thanks in advance for considering it!
August 5, 2012
2nd Grade Ponderings (TpT Seller)
I will definitely do that! Thank you so much for bringing it to my attention.

I should have an update up in a couple of days. I will email you here when it's done.

Scipi (TpT Seller) re: First Days of School Compare/Contrast
I saw your posting on the Sellers Forum page of Teachers Pay Teachers; so, I thought I would look at your store. Since you are new to the world of TPT, here are a few suggestions that might help you to better market your products.
First, make a cover page for EVERY product you create which can then be used as an attractive thumbnail to entice buyers. (Your scientist one does not really have an eye catching cover) Add a second page which is a directions or suggestions page. List several ways you use this product in your classroom. Never assume that a buyer knows how, why, or when to use your product. Use the footer to put the copyright symbol, your name and date of creation on EVERY page. Items, especially free ones, have been "stolen" from TPT and posted on other sites to be sold. You have to protect all of your creations. Also, number your pages.
It is important that we see what others are doing; so, feel free to look at any or all of my freebies listed below to gather some ideas. If you care to, a rating or any feedback you might have would be great.
