I used some of the items for my class. I hope you don't mind I took your dog and made him smaller and used him for a cover for a sheet that I had the students use to write about the story. I wanted something small enough to put on my reading bulletin board.

Will you be creating something for Simple Machines? We just love all your Reading Streets craft projects for the stories.
April 10, 2013
Firstgradefriendz (TpT Seller)
Yes! We have already created it! If you go to our store and search for Simple Machines Craftivity you will find it. We have a craftivity for every story in the reading series now. We are so glad you love our projects!!

wright2 re: Dot and Jabber Craftivity
What is the story that you are referring to called "Water?" Who is the author? I would like to try and get it.
April 7, 2013
Firstgradefriendz (TpT Seller)
In our Scott Foresman Reading Series, there is a Science in Reading Story that follows the story, Dot and Jabber. The Science in Reading story is titled, Water. I hope this helps.

Philesha00 re: Honey Bees Craftivity
Not really a questions but just letting you know that there have been errors on the past 3 sentence worksheets that I have used. The Big Circle, Life in the Forest, and Honey Bees. I love using your products, however I do not like when errors are on the sheets. I have paid for the entire unit and it may be my fault that I did not read over the sheet closely before I sent it home, but I had parents return student's homework with notes and questions about some of the sentnces. Please correct this and let me know if I can be credit for these errors. Please note I still love your product and will continue to support. Philesha Evans

I recently purchased the Penguin Craftivity. While I love it, I found errors on both of the labeling activities. I am not sure what to do to correct them. Could you please take a look at them, and if I am in error I apologize, but if I am not, could you please edit and resubmit? Like I said...not sure how this works. Thank you so much!!!

Vicki Blackwell re: Baby Jesus Craftivity
I just purchased your Baby Jesus Craftivity and I'm so excited about doing this with my grandson's class but I'm confused on the directions. #1. Allow your students to take the Baby Jesus glyph survey. #2. Use the survey results to tally your data. Look at the Baby Jesus glyph key to find out how many of each color and item you will need to copy in order for your students to create their glyph. I don't see any of that in this file. Is the glyph info a separate purchase or file?
Thanks,
Vicki
Thanks,
Vicki
November 19, 2012
Firstgradefriendz (TpT Seller)
I am very sorry!! We make lots of glyphs and crafts. We must have got mixed up on the directions for the Baby Jesus. It is just a craft, so you can ignore those directions. You will just need to copy the pieces for the craft and make sure each student has each piece. There is no survey with this activity. Thanks! We will fix this! We hope you enjoy!

jennyyoung re: A Big Fish for Max Craftivity
Hello! Our group of first grade teachers has LOVED you packets for reading streets. In planning ahead we see that there are no unit 3,4 and 5 stories. We are hoping its because you are creating them this year and just haven't posted them.... please let us know!

Firstgradefriendz (TpT Seller)
Hello!! I'm so glad you are enjoying our packets. Yes, we are working on them this year! We will definitely be posting packets for Units 3, 4, and 5. I am actually working on Unit 3: An Egg is An Egg today! Thanks so much!!

Do you have a resource for a review of Unit 1 in Reading Street? Our school does a review week. My friends and I use your craftivity files every week. I was just wondering if were going to have something for a review.

We are so glad you enjoy using our crafts each week with your story! We also do a review week at our school and try to do a fairy tale during those weeks. At this time, we do not have a resource packet for review week. We will add this to our to do list for the future! Thanks so much!

Firstgradefriendz (TpT Seller)
I hope you did not rate us due to an error in the system. This glyph has been downloaded many times successfully, so the problem is not something we did but the system (TeachersPayTeachers) must be having errors. We would never post a product that you are not able to print. Thank you for letting us know! I will email TPT and let them know about this! If this does not work, I will email you the product myself.

Scipi (TpT Seller) re: Easter Egg Adjectives
I saw your posting on the Sellers Forum page of Teachers Pay Teachers; so, I thought I would look at your freebie.
Here are a few suggestions that might help you to better market your products. First, create a cover page for EVERY product (especially your freebie) you create which can then be used as an attractive thumbnail to entice buyers. Add a second page which is a directions or suggestions page. List several ways you use this product in your classroom. (Is this an individual assignment? Group? An introduction or review? Etc.)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.
If you have time, I’d love to have your input on my freebie listed below.
