This is great for the price - saves me time and energy doing it myself. I think making some of your times ending times may up the thinking level a bit. Spelling could end at noon?

I wasnt quite able to use this unit because it focuses primarily on metaphors and similies. And the activities werent that creative.

Well, the description CLEARLY states what each poem entails. I have had great results with these lessons and always get very creative results.

Disappointed... way too much money compared to what others are offering Projects were basic, everyday ones that teachers use all the time - I just thought that the rubric would have a much clearer description so that projects could be done with more detail in mind. Wish I could get my money back.

Well, I am sorry that you are disappointed. My classes have always loved the activities as they offer something for all types of learners! The download preview also offered a look at all of them, so you could have seen what you were purchasing beforehand.

This is a good basic practice page. I do think $3.00 was a little much for 2 worksheets.

Thanks for your feedback on my prefix activities. I was wondering what kind of quiz section would you prefer? A quiz per prefix, or a quiz that covers all of the prefixes I have activities for? In my classroom, I give a quiz over all of the prefixes once we have covered them, but I want to make sure I create/ post what the buyers want :)
January 13, 2013
Melissa Stout (TpT Seller)
I would like one per prefix and then one for all. I LOVE your activities! They are really what I was looking for! Thanks so much!

Melissa Stout (TpT Seller)
Yes, all directions are step by step for each day with students samples. I hope this answers your question. Have a great day!

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I have 14 years of teaching experience at the elementary level. I have taught 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades. I have the expereince of both a public school and private christian school setting.
MY TEACHING STYLE
My teaching style is fun and inspiring. I enjoy doing a lot of cooperative groups where the students are working to solve a common problem or working on a common goal.I like to try new lessons and adjust things that do not work and capitalize on the things that do. I accentuate my students' strengths and differntiate instruction to meet differing learning styles.
