When learning is not only solid, but cute and FUN, then you get willing participants and a key to unlock that brain file drawer! These are the BEST pages I have ever seen for learning calendar! Even though it isn't in our core, the activities do give the kids practice in common core skills.

carrielsmith re: Solve the Mystery Word Activity
I love this idea for a center! Is there any way you could make this activity with intermediate lines rather than primary ones? It would great to have a space on it for the definition of the word as well!
January 28, 2013
Kathy Goosev Howell (TpT Seller)
Great idea! I will make the intermediate lines and posted it shortly.
Thank you for your suggestion.

Is it possible to have a canadian flag for July?

I have added a July page with a Canadian flag. You can download load the file again and the new page should be included in the download. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you.

Thank you Yvonne. I appreciate your support. My sister designed my profile picture. She came up with my name "kafy" because that's how small children say "Kathy." :)

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I have been a classroom teacher for more than 25 years. I have taught preschool, kindergarten, first grade, and substituted in 2nd. Teaching is a fabulous adventure! Also, I have been a workshop presenter at various conferences up and down the state of California.
MY TEACHING STYLE
Teaching should be meaningful, fun and student centered, with lots of hands on learning and, whenever possible, integrating curriculum. Music is an essential component to my classroom. We laugh, sing, and dance to the rhythm of learning.
