Very cute idea! I agree with some earlier comments that it would be nice if this were updated to say 2013. Or perhaps you could leave it blank or make it editable for future years? But it is a great product as an extremely reasonable price. Thank you!

Hi Katie
I just bought your Father's Day Sports Illustrated item...great idea by the way! It came to me in PDF form, but said it would arrive as a Word document that could be modified. Is it possible for you to send that to me so that I could make a few changes?
Thanks

I second that question. I bought the Mother's Day/Father's Day files but year is 2008. I don't have software to change it to 2012. Do you have it in Word? Selling description says word document, which would be editable, but it's a .pdf file.

I developed it to align with my public school's curriculum. It's a great start for you if you want some ideas for thematic units, especially reading. You might have to work in your own school's curriculum depending on your situation. Let me know if you have questions or are unhappy with it and I can work with you.

How do I change the weighting of grades or have different scores for different students?
August 16, 2010
Katie C (TpT Seller)
Hi Evelyn,
Are you familiar with adding formulas to cells in Excel? You can add a formula like =43/50 if a student got 43 out of 50 questions right, and it will automatically generate a percentage. There are also a few other things you can do to make grading easier. Check out the links below for some tips.

I'm not sure about weighting grades. I usually adjust my grades before I add them to the gradebook if needed. Hope that helps!

I just purchased the Rules discussion guide which is going to be extremely helpful! My question is: Is there an answer key? That would be even more helpful as I begin this unit with my students. I usually edit resources and make them most fitting to my students, but an answer key would be extremely helpful. Please let me know. Thank you! Andrea

Hi Andrea.
Thanks for your feedback. I don't usually include an answer guide, but it might be a good thing to think about in the future. I'll let you know if I do end up making it. Sorry about that. Thanks for buying my products. I hope you'll be happy with it. Let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks!

Hi Katie --
When I ordered and downloaded this plan this morning, my main purpose was to acquire your Web Quest worksheet and strategy. That seems to be missing? Maybe I'm just overlooking it. Would you be willing to share with me what you've used for that purpose?
Thanks!

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I've taught in Japan and America. I am in my second year teaching 4th grade, and have been creating and building my curriculum as I go.
MY TEACHING STYLE
I am very motivated to go out and find the newest literature, the most relevant social concerns and ideas, and the most interesting and easiest ways to include technology and expose kids to skills they'll need in the future. I do my best to create lessons that include all of the above and are adaptable as I find that they work or need tweaking.

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY
I have a biology and science background- my BA was in biology. I am an avid writer, and all of my writing lessons include a sample piece of writing. I am addicted to books and have hundreds in my classroom library that I use for novel units and mentor texts.
