Thanks for the labels! I really appreciate the picture of the organizer and letting us know where you got it. Did you print the labels on Avery labels or just cut them out and tape them???

This has been a lifesaver for me this year! I printed the cards on to cardstock, laminated them, and then cut them out. I used double sided tape to attached the labels to the front of the drawers.
Hope that helps!

Tiamat re: My Personal Dictionary {Essential Vocabulary For Every Writer}
Is the personal dictionary editable at all? I am in Australia and, while much of the content is perfect for what I need, some (holidays and start of school, for example) don't work for me. Or, alternatively, are there blank pages that I could add my own material?

Hi Tiamat,
Right now it is not editable it is a PDF file. For it to be editable I assume you would want it to be a PowerPoint file? The pages with graphics have to have the graphics locked down according to my agreement with the graphic designers. So I am not sure how you would change the holiday pages. I want you help you I am just not exactly sure how to? Let me know your ideas and I'll get back to you.

quinoa re: If I Were A Place Value Superhero
I'm wondering if there is a word missing on the Math Tracking Sheet for week 2 (p. 27).
The header says: "I will compose and decompose 2-digit ?? in a variety of ways."
I'm also wondering if you include the cheerio and pretzel glueing pages in the stapled student booklet or do you leave those free so that the glue can better dry? How many of the "We're Eating up Place Value" sheets does each student usually use during their center time?
Thanks!

Well I'm certainly batting a hundred! I even used this page with my own class and didn't catch the error! I have made the correction and you can get the change by downloading the unit again. Thank you for your support and I appreciate you bringing this to my attention.
I do not include the cheerio and pretzel activity page in the booklet. It needs to have time to dry so I leave it out. I had the kids complete 2 pages during center time.
I hope that helps.

Your work is so detailed and lovely and I really appreciate your attention to detail; however I noticed a couple of typos/errors that I hope you don't mind me bringing up.
1) Answer key for "How to make a Sundae" p. 31 - first 2 steps are in reverse order - banana should come first, then ice cream.
2) On each instruction page for the teacher, after the pizza one, it always continues to say "Students will then complete a pizza craftivity" (p. 26, 42, 55, 66, 79, 95, 104, 113, 125, 135)

Natalie's Nook (TpT Seller)
Hi there,
I assure you that the file is okay but it is frustrating when that happens. A couple of things...First, for whatever reason some people have trouble opening TpT files at school. It has something to do with the server. I don't know why that happens. I personally have that problem when I buy something. Sometimes it takes me several attempts to actually get it to open and other times no luck. So it might work better at home. If you are at school and need it right away I would suggest that you contact TpT immediately. Their link is at the bottom of the home page and they are really good about getting back to you quickly.
I hope you can get this fixed quickly.

Natalie's Nook (TpT Seller)
Hi Debby!
Well that is frustrating!!! The files are fine so there is something going on with the download. Just a couple of questions... For whatever reason I (and others) have trouble downloading purchases at school. For some reason it has to do with the school's server. If you were trying at school I would suggest trying it again at home. Also, you might need an updated version of Adobe. The final thing I can suggest is that TpT finally told me that they were have a lot of trouble with Explorer and they suggested that I change over to Google Chrome. Once I did that the issues I was having with downloading all disappeared. If none of that works or don't apply to you then contact TpT immediately. Their link is at the bottom of the home page and they are really good about getting back to you quickly! I am truly sorry you are having problems and I hope it gets solved quickly! Email me again if it doesn't get fixed and I will try to contact TPT on my end.
Good luck!

quinoa re: My Personal Dictionary {Essential Vocabulary For Every Writer}
Hi Natalie,
Thanks very much for the time and effort you put into creating this super dictionary. I really like it and am looking forward to using it with my students next year!
There are 2 "little" things that I think could make it perfect:
1) Adding "Remembrance Day" under November on the Months and Holidays page
2) Numbering the pages and adding an index which lists the main word categories and their corresponding page(s) so that the students can more quickly find the page they need.

Hi there,
I am so happy to hear that you are pleased with the "Personal Dictionary"! I use it all year and find it invaluable!
I have added Remembrance Day and Veteran's Day to November as you requested.
As for the pages numbers - I did think about adding page numbers and a table of contents, however, if I do that then a purchaser is forced to use all the pages. If they only wanted to use certain pages then they would not be able to use the table of contents and they would have to white-out page numbers. I would think that this would aggravate a buyer. For this reason I have not added page numbers. I hope you understand:)
If you go back to your "My Purchases" page you can download the unit again and get the revisions.
Thank you for your support!

Hi Natalie,
I recently found your products and they look excellent. I will be teaching Grade 1 for the first time next year. Could you recommend which units would be best to purchase. Do you plan to offer a compilation of Gr. 1 products at a group price or any sales before next September. I noticed on your blog you held a sale in June last year when someone suggested it. If you have them I would love the Ontario success criteria and learning goals, rubrics, etc. as I teach in Mississauga. Thanks so much, Karen

Hi Natalie,
I'm sure you get this question a lot, but what are the chances that you will be translating your materials (particularly the math resources) into French? I know you collaborated with someone on one unit on regrouping in addition, which has been wonderful. Hoping that this will become a constant because you've got great stuff!

Thanks for the question. I am certainly glad you like my units and I honestly wish I could tell you that there are plans to translate more of my work but I am not. To be honest I don't need them personally and there really didn't seem to be the interest. Sorry!

Hi Natalie. I currently teach Grade 1 but will be teaching a Grade 1/2 next year. A Grade 2 teacher at my school told me about you and your great resources (she has purchased quite a few things from you!) I also teach in Ontario (Mississauga) so I was wondering if you would consider posting your Grade 1/2 long range plans from this year. I would pay whatever you thought was fair. I have already saved a lot of your items to my wishlist to use next year and look forward to purchasing and using them!

Hi Natalie,
I love your work and I own many of your products. I just purchased the My Language Booklet (6 weeks of daily skills). I printed off tonight and realized that I don't believe my first graders can skale their writing down small enough to fit on the 1/2 page booklet. Is it possible to get this product to where it is a full page instead, so they have enough space to write their answers?
Thanks so much,
Donna

Hi Donna,
I will certainly do everything I can to help you:). That is the reason I changed the format of my other daily skills packs - writing size! To avoid re-typing to whole pack I will try and enlarge each section to be a full page. However, the pages will need to be horizontal- I hope that's okay. My contact information is on the last page of the unit. Please email me with an email address for your and I will get right on it. Thank you for your support:)

Hi Natalie,
I will be splitting my class into two groups tomorrow. My second group will continue their reading lessons. My first group has completed their reading lessons. I need something for my first group to do when I am conducting my reading lesson with my second group (~ 5 mins). They're in grade two.
Which pack do you think is the more challenging of the two: 'Daily Language Skills' (sets 1 and 2) or 'My Language Booklets' ?
Thanks for your help!

Hi Shawna,
Hmmm - interesting question. Couple of things to consider. I think "My Language Booklets" might be a bit more challenging because there is minimal picture support. These pages are 1/2 pages so they are required to write smaller - grade 2s sometimes find that a bit trickier. I found my kids needed a bit more assistance with these. But that could have been my group of kids. I used this with my 2/3 split last year.
I have personally preferred the "Daily Language Skills" (set 1 and 2) for my grade 2s this year. They are full page so the kids have no trouble writing in them. More visual support so I have expected them to complete the pages independently.
I hope that helps but if you need more input write me again:)

Hi there,
I made this unit for my grade 1s because they have to do nonstandard measurement. My grade 2s did standard measurement (cm). I would ideally say it is more suited to grade one but it would work if your grade 2s needed an early introduction to the concept of measurement. I hope this helps:)

Hi Natalie - well.......I printed the jesters off again today (through the school copier) and they came out the right size. It appears that my colour printer increased the length so I will have to re-check my settings when I print. I'm sorry for taking your time up with this. I knew that your stuff is ALWAYS accurate and I buy everything you put out so I figured it was me, but needed to check. Thanks again for your time and looking into it. I think that was the only page that did that as the other colour prints seemed fine.

Hi again,
First can you please tell me your first name...lol:) You have been such a wonderful supporter of my work and I feel so weird that I don`t even know your name! I am so glad to hear that the center measurement were fine. Don`t computers drive you absolutely crazy sometimes?! Sorry to hear that you have to re-print it but glad there were no errors. Now embarrassingly I have to admit that I made a couple of silly errors in my geometry pack "Knights of the Sphere Table" which I think you bought. I think I might have been sleeping!!!! I am keeping my fingers crossed that you haven't already printed and laminated everything! Just download the unit again and you will get the revisions. Reprint pages 25, 29, 42, 50 and 62. They were silly little mistakes but I am embarrassed none-the-less! Thank you again for all your support ~ you're the best!

Okay it might be my post March Break brain. They had the pictures out and we were using the red face measuring sticks. I will look at it again. When I sat down with the two doing it we were measuring the side and it seemed like they were off by about 1/2 a face :) - my best math student pointed it out to me. It seemed strange to me so I thought I would ask. Thanks Natalie!

Hi Natalie - Jester Measuring.......when the kids are using the measuring sticks they really don't seem very accurate - they are going almost to half-way. Have you updated this measuring stick. THanks!
March 19, 2013
Natalie's Nook (TpT Seller)
Hi there,
Okay I am confused:) I have no idea why you are not getting exact measurements. I did this with my own class and the measurements were exact. I just pulled the activity out and re-measured all the jester sticks using the red "cube" ruler and I got exact measurements for every jester stick. I have a couple of questions...
(1) Your kids are measuring the jester stick pictures and not the jester with the answers?
(2) I have my kids measure from the top of the card to the bottom of the card not the picture. The reason I did this was to avoid a child making a mistake because their "ruler" was on an angle - they lined it up perfectly along the edge of the card. Were you having your kids do that, too?
(3) The cube "rulers" that you have them using are the red ones?
Please get back to me because I am completely puzzled by this! I can appreciate that you would definitely not find this acceptable and I want to make this right with you:)

I bought the Froggy plays soccer. I'm trying to put the idiom flap book together. Your directions says to fold it. When you fold it... the Name page or title page is on the back and the idioms will be on the front cover of the flapbook. Is that right? The line sheet is then stapled behind the idioms, so that page you cut in half.
Is this correct? Thank you! I love your units!

Hi Vici!
Yes you have got it right! The lined paper is cut in half and each child then gets 3 boxes. They write the answer in the square and glue it behind the correct flap. This was a bit tricky to explain:)
