I have sent you the invites, Pinterest actually popped up with a new message, "Woooo, slow down!" So you might get them in two batches. Please accept the ones you like. The only rule is that the Teacher Notebook Boards come from your TN store. The other boards may come from anywhere.

Hi Fern,
Thanks for getting back to me so quickly! The site appeared to be yours as far as I can tell. It was called "Best Practices 4 Teaching Literacy Freebies". The link was on the right side of the page and had several other links which stated that the items were free.
Hope this helps.

Based on TeachersPayTeachers Policy of having fewer, smaller packets for freebies compared to when the company first started, I have had to take down and revised many of my freebies. If you came to my blog based on a previously posted FREEBIE from another website or Pinterest, I apologize for the inconvenience. If you will follow my blog, I am going to start a new policy of rewarding loyal blog followers. For a short time I will have a product up on my blog for free!

Hello Jordana,
I just downloaded the product from the TPT site to make sure. The file is a zipped up file, so you will need to use your Window's feature "extract the files" to open them all up correctly.
The PowerPoint is called Phonics.ight.Family.PP and the other two items are there also.
Please let me know if you need more assistance,

Yes, for the game they have student cards with an analog clock that they have to match up to the card with the digital 2:55 AM. Then they have to match it up to the sleeping work mat or party work mat to take it to the next problem solving step.
The worksheet has analog clocks and they have to write 3:45, then AM or PM with circling Party or Sleeping. If you download the preview you can see the different items. Thank you, Fern

acarnevale re: Common Core Aligned Bundled Multiplication Center Games Seven to Twelve
As interesting as this sounds, the preview doesn't show what the games look like, so I can't tell whether or not they're something I'd want to use in my classroom. Please consider changing the preview to include what the games look like. Thanks.

That's a very good point. In this bundle have a link to each product that has a preview, but that would be a little time consuming. Tonight I will put them all into one product download to make it easier for future customers and send you a new message. Thank you for giving me such a great idea to make my product descriptions better.

Jennifer, I just checked it and you are exactly right. I will correct this problem and you will get a notice from TPT that the item has been corrected so that you may download it again. Please share the "Threes" with someone if you are unable to use it. Also, my email is FernleySmith@yahoo.com if you don't get the TPT notice to download it again. I'm very sorry for this confusion.

Yes, there are 6 different themes, all in color and again in black and white, for 12 total that all reinforce the +0 concept.

It is a PDF file. Do you have Adobe? It is free, here is TPT's advice on Downloading a PDF... {I hope this helps} ~Fern
You just need to update your Adobe Reader:
http://get.adobe.com/reader/otherversions/
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). To 'open with' adobe reader on a mac, highlight the product pdf icon with one click, go to 'file' at the top of the screen, choose 'open with' then select 'adobe' and you'll be all set.

lisajohnpenn re: Multiplication Doubles Concept PowerPoint and Center Game For Common Core
The games are printing out in black and white. Do I need to do something on my end to correct this, or is this how they were intended?
October 28, 2012
Fern Smith's Classroom Ideas (TpT Seller)
A couple of things comes to mind. I went to another computer to test your product and not just on the computer I make it on. I downloaded the file and it is fine.....So, first question, no, you do not need any other software on your end as long as your computer is pretty current and has a way unzip and Adobe....The file is ZIPPED closed to make it download faster, so I would try these steps in order...
1. Unzip the folder first.
2. The center game should now open up in Adobe Reader, you may have to update your Adobe for ALL PDF files, not just mine.
3. Pages 1 to 26 and 51 all ALL IN COLOR, and should print in color. Pages 27 to 50 & 52 are in black and white to save you money on color ink.
4. If you are printing 1 to 26, check your printer settings to make sure the box "Print Grayscale" or "Print in Draft Mode" have not been selected by mistake.
5. Make sure your color ink cartridge is unclogged, full or not empty. Your black ink will still print everything, but you might need a fresh color ink cartridge.
I hope this helps,
Fern Smith

Nelmsk1 re: Math Subtraction Center Game ~ Oh! Oh! Subtract Zero ~ Over 100 Pages!
I want to use these subtraction activities in small groups with differentiated instruction. Are there enough activities for me to use for my high, middle and low groups?
March 9, 2012
Fern Smith's Classroom Ideas (TpT Seller)
This center game has 12 different themes that all reinforce subtracting zero. It is the same problems and answers, but with different themes, all in color or black & white. All the question cards are 5-0=, 6-0= 12-0= with the matching answer cards. Instructions are included for a variety of ways to make the games and play the games, including matching, go fish, matching a card to the board, matching cards to cards....but with the 'subtract zero' concept, there is not a lot of difference for a high group. When you subtract zero, the first number always stays the same. I have found that my high group gets that very quickly and I move them on to another concept. Thanks for your question, Fern

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Previously the Teacher of the Year & 3rd Grade Team Leader for an amazing school in Clay County, Florida. I am proud to say that I am a product of Clay County Schools & my own children attend some of the best schools we have in Clay! I have Elementary Certification, Age 3 - Grade 6, in both Texas and Florida, with an ESOL & K-12 Gifted Endorsements. I have over 20 years experience in a variety of 1st to 8th grade classrooms, including Gifted, EHSC, ESE Inclusion & Bilingual. I have an additional 3 years as a school Network Specialist, as well as experience as the evening Adult Education Computer Technology Instructor. I love technology! As a Navy Wife, I had to go into different schools, different school districts and even different states! From low-income to high-dollar, I've seen them all! The hardest part was that some schools give you everything, and some schools have nothing. When you have your own units, you can hit the ground running. First year teachers or experienced teachers...nothing is better than having your own files to pull from and be ready to go from day one. Classroom management is NOT THAT HARD, when the students are actively engaged! Have a question? I'm just an e-mail away! FernleySmith@yahoo.com
MY TEACHING STYLE
I am passionate about using centers, mini-lessons and Guided Reading in the primary classroom!! Next, instill a love for literature! Build a strong foundation in the youngest children with literature, vocabulary, spelling & writing and everything else will fall into place, including Math & Science!
HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT
I hit the ground running my first year with being nominated for the beginning teacher of the year for my district. Since then I have also been nominated for teacher of the year. Last year I was the Teacher of the Year for my school. Many of my administrators have stated that I am an outstanding, energetic, intelligent and enthusiastic educator. I have shown evidence of excellent communication skills with students, parents, and co-workers, not only with written documentations but also by having my own web sites. My strong technological, organizational and interpersonal skills have been commended by my administrators, principals, and district directors. This has allowed me promotions in my field, even with still being a Navy Wife on the move!
MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY
I graduated from Florida State University with a BS in Elementary Education. Later I earned a Gifted Endorsement from University of North Florida. I am constantly continuing my education in computers and technology, including two summers at NASA's Astronauts Memorial Foundation. My knowledge of computers and the Internet is extensive. I have experience with teaching both software & hardware classes, networking, common computer applications classes, on-line classrooms and learning, building and maintaining web pages, video and picture editing, as well as being a Microsoft Office User Specialist.
