shaveb7154 re: Happily Ever After: A Fairy Tale Unit
I just purchased your fairy tale unit and noticed that the question sheet for Jack and the Beanstalk was missing. All the other fairy tales had the web sheet and question sheet. Was that suppose to be included? Thanks

I just purchased your Happily Ever After fairy tale unit. I LOVE the unit and am very excited to use it with my 2nd graders. I always end the year with a fairy tale unit.

I noticed that in the section that has the pictures for Cinderella and the students are supposed to write what is happening in each scene, it skips from page 3 (receiving invitation to ball) to page 5 (magic wand next to Cinderella dressed in rags). I am not finding page 4. I'm assuming it would be a picture with the stepsisters leaving without Cinderella or something like that. I think my students will have a blast with this writing activity. Is there anyway to send me the missing page or add it to the document so I can download it again?

Also, I noticed on the "Draw and Write It!" page, that the third section that should be "Then" is written "The,n." (with a comma between the "e" and the "n"). I thought I'd let you know.

Anyway, great work on this awesome unit! :-)

Rachel Lynette  (TpT Seller) re: Rate The Sub!
Hello,

I like your rate the sub freebie - what an interesting idea! In fact I wanted to pin it, but I believe the use of the word "them" when referring to the substitute is incorrect as there was (I am assuming) just one sub and the pronoun is plural. You could use "him or her" instead.

Hi Linda,
It states before you buy it that it's a zipped document and that you need to have the program to open it. There are free programs out there you can download for unzipping. One of them is http://www.jzip.com/.
Here's an excellent site talking about zipping: http://www.theschoolsupplyaddict.com/1/post/2012/11/technology-tuesday-6.html
The majority of my files and other sellers files are zipped because of their size.
You can also contact TpT. Hope this helps!

They are 8.5 x 11 set up, so a full page size each. I do have a just a Spanish Alphabet set, but not all the graphics are the same as this set, as I was trying to match as close to the cognates.
