Thank you. Your unit is fantastic. Well put together, great graphics, and a good variety of activities. I also like how you did not put a branding name/logo across every page. I love it and will be following you on TPT.
1. It was a great way to introduce the concept of supply and demand and used real-life examples that kids were familiar with.
2. The kids loved (and understood) it.
3. It was so easy to grade because of the pictures!
After just a quic pre-view I'm anxious to use this next year. It is colorful, neatly done, and appears to hit the nail on the head with economics. Thank you for a great idea!!
Outstanding resource! I am teaching 3rd grade for the first time in a long time and I'm excited to teach economics because of YOUR product! Thank you for putting your time and talent into such a great product! Can't wait to begin my lessons tomorrow!
This unit is perfect! I am blown away by the organization, clarity, and thoroughness put into this econ unit. I am SO excited to share this with my students! My cheeks hurt from smiling during the preview. Thanks! I've already purchased two more of your products. Keep them coming!

On your Supply & Demand worksheet, where did you get the big bubble letter font?

Hello. First of all, thank you for making such a great product. My students are LOVING it. Just one thing, there is a typo on the last page of the supply and demand auction package. It has their instead of there-#3. I am always correcting my students on their usage of there, their, and they're. I don't want to confuse them.

What grade level was the Economics Unit of Study originally targeted for? It looks like a great way to end my year in 5th grade!
Hello! It is targeted for third grade, but I think if has some concepts that are also covered in fifth grade. What are your objectives / major concepts covered in fifth grade for economics?
Would love for you to link this up for the FREE FOR ALL Linky at All Thongs Upper Elementary! http://allthingsupperelementary.blogspot.com/2013/04/free-4-all-linky-party-4.html

In the assessment page you said you have attached the notes that are filled in with the answers for my convenience, however I did not get that attachment. would you be able to send it to me? Also on your Weather tree chart, i was hoping you could just give me a sample of each category as i am a bit confused at what the kids are to do with this page.
Thanks!
Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I just uploaded an updated file with the teacher notes attached. Thanks!

Hi,
I just bought the weather unit and was wondering if you had an answer key for the notes pages. I wasn't sure where the information for the properties of air came from and how you taught that to the students.
Also, what kinds of things are you expecting the kids to put on the Weather Tree Chart?
I just bought your economics unit and I am unable to open it becuase it is a winzip file. We do not have that file at school. ARe you able to send me another copy in a different format?
I am sorry you are experiencing problems with this file. Unfortunately, it is too large to email. Luckily though, the file just needs to be unzipped. Follow the instructions below to unzip the file:
1. Right click on the file you want to unzip.
2. Select "Extract All" from the menu that appears.
3. Click "Extract." The Zip files will un-compress automatically, appearing in the selected directory. Once extracted, the files appear in a pop-up on your screen.
4. Double-click on any of the recently extracted files to open them.
Hello,
I just wanted to ask if you can please look at your Thermometer poster. I believe you meant to say "thermometer" rather than termometer in your tools poster. Let me know if you can resend me just that beautiful poster that my kids really liked. Thanks.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention, and I apologize for the error. I just updated the file, and I fixed the spelling mistake. You can download the updated file now. Thanks for supporting my TPT store! :)

Hello -
I recently purchased your weather unit and love it! Your work is great! I did, however, want to let you know that I believe you meant to write the word "stormy" instead of "stromy" on the barometer page (23). Just wanted to let you know. Thanks!
Hi! I'm enjoying using your packet on plants! However, I do need your help. I have been looking for the information to complete the section on simple plants and cannot find it. I've looked at our school's textbook as well as online. I would be so appreciative if you could point me in the right direction! Thank you!
Jeannie Ferguson :-)
Simple plants are plants like mosses and liverworts. These plants do not have leaves, stems, or roots. Because of this, simple plants are unable to grow very tall. They are usually found in places that are wet.
I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any more questions. Thanks!
Hi, I am creating a product and would love to use the ABCD page from your product. I would provide a link to your product. Is this something you would allow? Thanks, Anne
If you would like to reach me by e-mail, my e-mail address is: Annegardner4@gmail.com
I am sorry you are experiencing a problem with the directions for the mad money pack. Did they not download with the pack, or was the page blurred? A few people using MAC computers have mentioned black lines appearing on the directions page. Just let me know, so I can solve this problem for you. Thanks!

kpezz re: Plants Unit of Study Pack
Hi, I purchased your plants unit of study pack and have downloaded it but whenever I try to open the file I see a message that says that the file is damaged and cannot be repaired. I was wondering if you have encountered this before or can tell me how to access the file?
Where did you get the frog scientist clip art that you used to create these posters. I love them, but I want to change some of the wording and so was looking for the clip art, but can't find it.
Hi! I love your Daily 5 pack. Is there any way you would be able to correct the word Several (instead of Sevral) on your EEKK poster? Thanks!

Hi Andrea, hope all is well. We haven't heard from you in a bit. :( Just wondering if you have had a chance to make the few adaptations to the Seasonal Writing pack that we had discussed? I don't want to change anything myself because it's perfect the way it is! I'd much rather wait for you! Thanks again!

I apologize greatly for taking so long to put this edited item up. I have had a very busy summer! I am uploading the file right now. You can find it labeled as "Seasonal Words Freebie-Canada." Thank you so much for your patience! Have a great start to your school year!

Hi there! I just downloaded your Seasonal Words freebie (too darn cute) and was wondering if you would be able/willing to change a few words for your Canadian followers?:)The word that we use instead of Pilgrims is Settlers, and Native Canadians instead of Native Americans. Keeping my fingers crossed! Thank you for all you do!
