Hi Kim, Thank you for purchasing! I'm so sorry it's messed up! First of all, did you try again to download today? I updated the files last night. If it still isn't working after you get the newest download, try this: Download the latest version of Adobe Reader. If you are on a Mac, do not open with Preview. It will not work. Download the most updated version of Adobe Reader and open the PDF with it (and not Preview).
I'll send this to your email as well so we can keep trying until it gets sorted out.

Juliana Suarez  (TpT Seller) re: Alphabet Dictionary
I am so excited about this. A lot of my students ask me how to spell usually the same words every year so I decided to make them a little personalized pocket dictionary to keep in their boxes, but this is so much better! I teach Kinder Bilingual for gifted and talented students, most of my instruction, especially language arts is in Spanish,so I will have to add the extra letters. I was wondering if you could change the title to "Mi diccionario del abecedario" and " Palabras interesantes de la A-Z"

Erin Wing  (TpT Seller)
Hi! Thanks for asking!
This packet contains activities tied to the anchor standards, so they are more general. I did this so families can use it year after year and build these activities into their home reading routine. (It's also handy if parents have kids in multiple grade levels at once.)
The math version does list the content standards by grade level for reference, but the activities in that version relate to the math process standards, so they're general as well.
Thanks so much for your interest!

Hi Courtney,
You can modify the number of boxes in the editable version included in the packet. (You could delete two rows so you just have the three boxes for smaller cvc words.) If you don't want to go that route, I also noticed this product the other day--I don't know the seller, but it might be more what you're looking for. http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Elkonin-Boxes-Phoneme-Segmenting
Thanks for asking! Your question prompted me to double check the grade levels I marked for this product. I actually designed it for high 1st-3rd, so I just adjusted that in my product description.
Thanks for the interest in my products! Have a great weekend! :)

It's not available in Spanish at this time. I wish I could do it. You aren't the first to ask, so I will look into the logistics of having it translated. For now though, the answer is unfortunately no.

Hi! When you say "log" do you mean a one page spot to write a list of books read? That type of log isn't included in this document. It's more of a reading response journal. (Sorry if that is confusing in the description.)
I'm so sorry, but I can't do any custom orders right now.

Inspired Teaching Today  (TpT Seller) re: The Core at Home: Math
Hello-
Can you explain how the item is used? Is it a resource the parents read once to teach them how to expand their child's thinking or is something a teacher could assign as homework? For instance: Do page 5 on number sense and play the game?

Sorry- I'm interested I just don't understand how I would use it.

Erin Wing  (TpT Seller)
Hi Michele, It's actually both. It explains the standards to parents and gives them sample questions to ask their kids when they're solving math problems together. It also includes a math log, where students can show their thinking. I would send home the informational letters and the parent guide to let parents use it as they choose, and I would also occasionally send home a problem like what we're doing in class and have kids write out their thinking by doing a page in the math log to turn in. You could use the math log in class too. The questions are general, so they apply to many different problems. Does that answer your question?
Thanks for asking!

The download includes a cover and one page to copy several times and use as the journal response pages. The responses are intended to be student generated so no prompts are included, but I included three pages with examples of the three kinds of writing that they can do. (Narrative, opinion, and factual.) You could certainly use them with any prompts you have on hand as well. Again, sorry for the delay!

Hi Erin,

I downloaded the common core literacy log and it has grey smears across the pages. Do you know why this is showing up on my papers after downloading them? It doesn't look the same as it does with the sample. There are not many questions listed. I'm not sure if it is my computer or if there is a glitch somewhere.

First of all, thank you so much for your purchase! Try this: Download the latest version of Adobe Reader. If you are on a Mac, do not open with Preview. It will not work. Download the most updated version of Adobe Reader and open the PDF with it (and not Preview). If you still have problems, email me at erinfw@ihmail.com or respond again here. That should do the trick though!

Hi Andrea! Yes, if you click on each of the three product links and download the preview document for each, you can get a better idea of what is included in each packet.
Thanks for taking a look! Let me know if you have more questions.

Hi Beth, Are you talking about the size of the pennants? They are about 4 1/2 in tall by 4 inches wide. There are two per page. The pages are all set to print on 8 1/2 by 11 paper, but you could always enlarge them.
Thank you! Erin

I just stumbled on to your Core at Home LOVE IT! Is there a Core at Home for math??

Thank you!! Unfortunately I don't have one for math yet. I know I need to get going on that! :) I'm trying to figure out the best way to do it. I think it would be harder to do a general document for math that works for kids in grades K-5 like I did with the ELA standards. Anyway, I'm sorry I don't have one available right now! I know that would be handy for back to school.

My team loves your "Core At Home" ideas! Would it be possible for us to copy it to send home with parents at a Welcome Night? We reviewed the copy right statement at the end of the document and wanted to ask for more clarification. Thanks!

Thank you so much! I'm glad you like it!
Anyone who purchases the document is welcome to send the packet home to parents in his/her own class each year. I created it for that purpose--To be a guide parents can use at home. So yes, I think it would be awesome if you sent it home at Welcome Night!
The copyright statement is there to prevent people from claiming it as their own, or distributing to teachers school or district-wide. Thank you so much for taking the time to double check! :)

Hi Erin. Do you have a picture of what the word wall looks like?

Erin Wing  (TpT Seller)
Hi Alyssa! The only pictures I have are in the preview document. I should have included those in the actual product. I'll update that. Anyway, if you download the preview doc, you can see them.
On a regular bulletin board I would use twine across the top to sit the birds on, and scatter the clouds with letters across the top and then another row across the middle of the bulletin board. (With the words underneath, obviously.) Does that make sense?
Also fyi, I made the word cards pretty huge, but you can resize by printing smaller if you have a smaller space.
Feel free to email me if you have more questions. erinfw@ihmail.com

Oh no, I'm so sorry, Science Academy! That's the first I've heard of this issue. TpT is having some glitches this weekend and I'm not sure if that's the cause. Make sure you have the latest version of Adobe and then If you still can't get it to print, email me and I'll try sending you another copy. erinfw@ihmail.com

Joanne Matuch re: A to Z Math Activity Cards
Hello,
I tried to use the Feedback section, but for some reason it did not work on my Kindle. First of all, I wanted to say how much I love your products. I work with children from K-3 and I can think of a variety of ways to incorporate your ideas for all those grade levels.
I downloaded and printed your items during the Teacher Appreciation sale. Unfortunately I was not at home and could not save the documents. I was just looking through the packet and saw that the activity cards from the A to Z Math only printed the letter and the word it represented (ie.A adding). Nothing else came out on the cards. Everything else in the package came out fine. Thank you so much for the products you offered!!

Hi Mikesmom2000, Thanks so much for the kind feedback! I'm thrilled that you love the products! I don't know what happened with the math. Maybe it's an issue with Mac/PC? Sometimes, you need to update your version of Adobe Reader for things to appear properly. If that doesn't work, send me your email address and I'll try emailing the math section again. erinfw@ihmail.com Thanks!

Hello,
I am writing you in regards to the Teacher Appreciation Jack Pot. I made a huge error. I was so excited on Sunday I spent hours and hours on a very slow computer going to every site that participated. I might have looked around a bit and became a follower. I was so inspired by all of you bloggers. Anyways, I went to every single site and added the TPA Freebie to my wishlist because the computer I was on has a virus and was not cooperating. SSSLLLOOOWWW!!!! So I thought if I just add it to my wish list on Monday morning I will download them on my school computer where I do all or most of my school work anyway. I was so excited I woke up super early so I could get to school and download them. Come to find out you had to pay for them. I wanted to cry. I emailed tpt and when they finally got back to me they said unfortunately there was nothing they could do. I was suppose to download them. I don’t recall ever reading that anywhere but I am very new to all of this. They said I had to email each one of you individually. Yes, then and there I just about started to cry. I had 120 items I added to my wishlist. I was on the computer all day Sunday doing this.
I am just wondering if you would be so kind to email or what ever you have to do so that I can download your freebie. I thought I would try! Thank you for your creative inspiring blog!!

Erin,
Thanks I tried again in Safari and all download just fine. For some reason with Fire Fox only Z & Y were all I could see! Thanks for the response and your resource!

Erin,
Why am I see a Z & Y letter builder in my download, rather than the A & B which shows here on TPT. I do teach HWT in my Pre-k classroom and these would be fabulous to send home next year (for home practice) when we start a new year of Handwriting Without Tears starts!

Hi Deebi27,
When you download the document, you should receive 17 pages, with all of the alphabet letters. (Two letters per page.) Maybe your download didn't complete for some reason. Did you try downloading it again just to check? I just tried it again myself to see if anything was wrong. It worked fine for me. If you try it again and it still doesn't work, let me know. Thanks so much!

Scipi  (TpT Seller) re: Building Block Literacy
I saw your store on the home page of Teachers Pay Teachers; so, I thought I would look at your freebie. I left you a rating. Well done!

I have a couple of suggestions that might help you to better market this product. You might add a second page which is a directions or suggestions page for the teacher. (I know these are specific in the product description, but the buyer needs to have them with the product). 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.

I love getting input from a variety of teachers so if you have time, I’d appreciate your input on one of my freebies listed below.

Thank you so much, Scipi! I appreciate the feedback and I've done some of those suggestions on many products but I haven't been consistent at all. You're so right. Great ideas! I'll check out your products later and give feedback. I truly appreciate it!

TEACHING EXPERIENCE

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.

MY TEACHING STYLE

Strong home/school partnerships are essential in order for our students to succeed. My main goal on Teachers Pay Teachers is to provide products that help teachers build connections with parents; and to create resources for parents who want meaningful ways to extend learning at home.

HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT

I've led various district staff development training sessions on differentiation during Guided Reading, word work strategies and inquiry based science. I've trained staff on Step Up to Writing and Handwriting Without Tears programs. I was also a presenter and demonstration teacher for my district's new teacher induction program.

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY

Bachelor of Arts: Elementary Education (Area of Concentration: Science and Environmental Studies) Masters: Educational Technology.
