Hi there! This looks like fun! Does this scavenger hunt give the students specific websites to search for answers? Or is it more or less a free for all where they find everything on their own?

Jim Tuttle
Jim Tuttle  (TpT Seller)
No I don't give them the websites. I feel that the students need to be able to find the information themselves. Heck we had to use those dusty old encyclopedias. They can do it. Just my philosophy.
Thanks for buying my product and have fun with it.

Hi!
I am teaching the outsiders to my grade eight class. I am trying to figure out how the whole power point works. How do do I add points for a group when they get a question correct? Also, how do I move between different categories?

Jim Tuttle  (TpT Seller)
i assume that you are using the jeopardy game. To go from category to category, just click on the money amount on each column. As f6r the scores, i will check that. usually you can just type the m6ney amount on the c6ntenant space.
Again I will check on it. Sorry for any inconvenience.

higgins77 re: Animal Farm Important Quotes Power Point and Graphic Organizer
Jim - I purchased your Animal Farm Important Quotes PowerPoint. However, I cannot open it unless I purchase WinZip which is currently running at about $30. This makes your item very expensive, and, unless I buy WinZip, totally unusable. What can I do now? I have tried downloading a free version of 7Zip but your item only opens with WinZip. Please help.

A zipped file is just a condensed file. I think you can open it on any computer, including a MAC. i can send you all of the files, but I don't think that this is necessary. It is a simple process. Just click on the file and it will open and open the individual files. Any computer can open them.
Anyway send me your E-mail if you continue to have problems. jimbotuttle@yahoo.com I will send you the files.

I provide the texts of stories for some of my units on the lesser known short stories. These are classics so I don't include them. However the units are written for the original, unedited versions which are easily found on line. Here are a couple of links:

"The Gift of the Magi,"

http://www.teachervision.fen.com/short-stories/resource/3427.html

"The Necklace,"

http://www.eastoftheweb.com/short-stories/UBooks/Neck.shtml

I hope that this helps.

I don't see a test included in the Animal Farm unit I purchased. Also, Chapter 10 questions are labeled as Chapter 9. I am just reading the book now for the first time. Would you mind rechecking the unit to let me know if the Chapter 10 questions which are there are the correct questions, just mislabeled?
Also, is there a unit test? I don't see one. I am new to this site, so please don't take offense. Thanks, Maureen Burke

I think I did projects at the end in lieu of a test. Hpwever, it would be good to include one. I will send you project ideas to, if you like. I have a seperate power point which I can send you for free. Thanks

I saw your posting on the Seller's Forum so I downloaded and rated your freebie. I trust you will take some time to do the same for me. The only suggestion I have for your item is maybe using some form of numbering other than Roman Numerals. I'm not a big fan of them. Otherwise, this is a great tool for the classroom. Here is my freebie.

I would be interested in using some of your materials on my website universalhomeschool.com (this website is due to be released in August 2011). The site will mainly focus on teaching videos for children who are being homeschooled, or need the extra help. We will offer math, reading and writing. I started building this site about a year ago and during this time I have been creating videos, quizzes, worksheets and lesson plans. I originally wanted a site that would be available for free to parents and teachers. Unfortunately because of the cost of the hosting, development, materials, and other overheads having a free site would be impossible so I will be charging a yearly fee to have access to the site. This will be anywhere between $30 and $50.
Therefore I am asking you for permission to use your work on my website. I will pay for your materials, give you the credit, create a link to your page and give you free membership.
If you are not interested, that is fine I understand. Let me know if you would like to discuss another agreement.
Thanks

I am an African American woman who teaches Language Arts in Middle School. I find the illustration of Lebron James used in one of your writing activities offensive. I am sure you could have found a better picture of Lebron somewhere on the internet.
May 7, 2011 Report inappropriate comment
Jim Tuttle
Jim Tuttle  (TpT Seller)
I think this is the second time you have written so you seem really upset about this. Really there was no offense intended. I am not an African American, but had a black roommate in college and spent three years of my life on the African Continent. This in no way excludes me from prejudice, but again I meant no offense by the caricature of LeBron. I hope you noticed that both of my examples were African Americans. Realize that caricatures are supposed to be funny. When I wrote the lesson I actually liked Lebron. That was before he trashed his hometown team!
Anyway, I will remove it, but I hope that you have not written off the lesson because of this issue. Anyway it may take a few days because I am in the middle of the term.
Thanks for your feefbsck,

Jim Tuttle
Jim Tuttle  (TpT Seller)
Yeah, I hadn't thought about that! It was an example letter to show the format. It came from an adult version of the Dear Abby lesson I used in ESL. Probably not appropriate for kids. You can use the format and do another.

However, "I liked the activity until.... What happened here?"

Raye Lynn, it is a free activity and I find your admonishing reply a little funny here? Isn't it a useful activity with a lot of thought put into it for nothing? How does this change the activity? What's happening here?

Dear James,

My name is Jack Dennison. I am the Editor-in-Chief of www.FunnelBrain.com, an educational website. I am writing to you because the quality of the work you have posted to PTP distinguishes you as a talented author. I am looking for teacher-authors to create custom study review materials for FunnelBrain (on a paid basis, of course).

These study materials would take the form of online flashcards, quizzes, and study guides for high school and college level courses, as well as for certain standardized exams such as the GMAT, the SAT or the GRE. We are also interested in lesson plans built around activities that can take place on www.FunnelBrain.com.

If you are interested in a paid writing assignment, please email me at jack@funnelbrain.com, and I will respond with details on the available assignments. In the meantime, please feel free to browse FunnelBrain.com.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Regards,
Jack Dennison

Sorry about that. I guess it is mostly worksheets and activities. I think you will be happy with what you get though. If you would like anything else from my store let me know and I will send it to you.
A buyer should give you what he/she says so sorry about that. But I think there are about 34 files so I think it is pretty economical. Again though, if you want another item let me know. Sorry for the oversight.

If you are interested I have a 25 file, "The Humongous Greek Myth Bundle," which is about everything you need to teach Greek Myths. If buyers buy it I send them other stuff that I have free via E-mail for free. This is stuff I did not create, but use. If you need anything else let me know
