I'm not sure why it didn't download, it did look fine when I tried it. I uploaded the file again. Try to download it again and see what happens. Hopefully it was just a glitch somewhere. I'm sorry you're having trouble.

rmbbrown re: What is a folk tale SmartBoard game
I am having trouble getting this flipchart to work. All I can really see are the backgrounds. I have ActivInspire. Any suggestions for me?
May 2, 2013
Kathleen Cool (TpT Seller)
Hello. I am sorry that you are having trouble. This is a SmartBoard file and not an ActivInspire file which is why it won't work. I did some research and think that you can import a SmartBoard file into your ActivInspire program. I have two pages for you to look at that tell how to do this. The first is a blog post and the second is a pdf document that looks like a manual for Activinspire. I hope this helps. Let me know if this works and if not I'll see what else I can do. Thank you!

Hi! Could you please e-mail me at maureen.a.sords@cmsdnet.net when you complete the other comprehension games and game boards that I asked you about?
March 4, 2013
Kathleen Cool (TpT Seller)
I sure will. I am working on Barnyard Banter right now and hope to have it done in a couple of days. We're supposed to get a foot of snow this week so that should leave me lots of time to create!

Hi! I love your game for Perfect Soup. Thank you for creating this game!!!! Could you please make comprehension games and game boards for Jump Frog Jump and for One Duck Stuck and for Barnyard Banter? I am more than willing to pay you for them.
February 26, 2013
Kathleen Cool (TpT Seller)
I'm so glad you liked the game. I just discovered this book and I love it, my kids did too. I will definitely begin working on those for you. Those are great stories. Are you looking for anything besides the comprehension games like center activities? If there is anything else specific you would like you can email me at booklover223@gmail.com and let me know. Thank you!

jfloyd re: George Washington's Teeth Literacy and Math unit
Dear Kathleen, This unit On George Washington's Teeth is fantastic. Do you think that you would please consider making one that will match the common core standards for kindergarten? Thank you for sharing your creativity with other teachers. Sincerely, Julia
February 23, 2013
Kathleen Cool (TpT Seller)
Thank you! I'm so glad you liked this unit. I'm from Virginia and we haven't gone to common core so I am not real familiar with the standards but I have looked through them. What standards are you looking for specifically? I will be happy to create something. If you want to send me an email you can at booklover223@gmail.com. Thanks!

Ricki Gooch re: Love, Splat mini unit with literacy and math activities
I cannot open the PDF. Could you help me please? thanks....ricki
February 10, 2013
Kathleen Cool (TpT Seller)
First I want to apologize for any trouble you are having. The download is in a zip file. Could that be the problem? You should be able to save the file and then right click on it and choose extract. I can also email you a pdf copy. My email is booklover223@gmail.com. And if that doesn't work I will upload a new file that you can download from TpT that is not a zip file. I can't do this from home, my internet connection is too slow to upload large files. But I can do it at school tomorrow. I am so sorry you are having trouble.

I just wanted to let you know that you've titled this product as Christams instead of Christmas, so people might not find it in a search.
Cheers!

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I am an elementary librarian/media specialist. I have worked in the same school for 11 years. I teach 30 classes a week in grades Kindergarten through fifth grade.
MY TEACHING STYLE
As an elementary librarian on a fixed schedule I do not have a lot of time with my students each week. My goal is to create fun, creative activities and lessons that also teach the objectives I want the students to learn. My lessons typically can be taught in 20-25 minutes. I teach in Virginia and we have not adopted the Common Core standards so my lessons and activities are not aligned with the CC. However I do plan on adding these standards soon since so many other states do follow these.
