My kiddos were enraptured with these characters and the activities. The boys, and even the girls, loved all the variety. They did really well on the assessment, and I think a lot of it was because they were so jazzed about the star wars references.

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.

I have added the poster - hopefully the wording is okay:) I used coins in the poster so I have included a Canadian and an American version. Just go back to your "my Purchases" page and download the unit again and you will get the new posters. I am so happy to hear that you have been happy with the unit!

Hi there,
It sounds like something is going wrong during the download. Try and updated version of Adobe, download the unit again and that should solve the problem. If it doesn't please email me at home - my email address is on the last page of the unit. Let me know what pages you need and I will send them to you right away. I know this is frustrating when it happens so I hope it gets fixed quickly!

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!

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!

Natalie's Nook (TpT Seller)
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.

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:)

(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:)
Bye for now,

scastillo re: When Pigs Fly {A Probability Unit}
I really love this bundle. I am positive my kids will enjoy it. I just had a small request. Would you be able to fix a spelling error? Can you change the word colour to color in the "Gumball Galore and The candy jar" pages. Can you also change the word Hallowe'en to Halloween. Do you have pics of the final products? Thank you

Hi there,
If you take another look at the unit you will see that I have already duplicated the pages you are referring to. One page has the word spelled "colour" and the other one has it spelled as "color." I always include both the Canadian and American spelling of words so everyone is happy:)

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:)
Thank you for your continued support! I am so happy to hear that you have been happy with your purchases!

Would it be possible for you to change the spelling of "colour" to "color" on the 3D Geometry Rubric. I saw that you had the USA spelling for all the other sheets, but that one was left off. Thanks!

Hi there,
I have added another rubric to the US pages section with the spelling "color". Just go back and download the unit again and you will get the additional page. Thanks for asking:)

Hi there,
I am sorry to hear that you are having trouble. I assure you that it I'd not a unit issue - it sounds like a problem with the download. I know that I cannot download properly at school so that might be the issue. You could also try an updated version of adobe. If that doesn't solve the problem then contact tpt - the link is at the bottom of the home page. I hope it gets fixed quickly:)

Hi Natalie,
First off, I love your stuff! My grade 1's and 2's had a fantastic time doing your math centres and I received a lot of postive feedback from the parents as well.
I just saw your Energy unit, unfortunately I just finished teaching that unit, but I was wondering if you were planning on doing any other science (grade 1 or 2) units? I teach in Toronto so I love that your materials are based on the Ontario Curriculum:)
Thanks again

Hi Terri!
Thank you for your positive feedback - it means a lot to hear that you have been happy with my products! I also have a 1/2 split this year. A great deal of my time has been spent getting my math strands all covered for both grades. I made the Energy unit because I couldn't really find a unit that would work. The biggest problem I have when I think about putting science units together is the availability of clip art - which really "makes" the unit pop. I am definitely making a communities unit for grade one and I am also making a Communities Around the World unit for grade two. That is my absolute favourite unit to teach and I have been buying graphics for this unit as I see them. It will be a big unit. As my math "to-do" list slows down I really do want to work on the science but I don't know if I could give you absolute time lines. What are you looking for specifically and what are your time lines? I would really love to help you out if I could and it would help me, too! Please email me back and I'll let you know what I can do for you!
Bye for now,

On the rock and ice and snow." Shouldn't it be rookeries, not rookies? Just wondering if that can be corrected. Thanks so much!

RE: Energy in Our Lives
Fabulous unit, Natalie. My class is enjoying it far more than the older unit I have been using. After we did the energy chain, we did a few other examples and now the kids are building one with plasticene (and many have sharks at the end of the food chain!).
The kids pointed out to me that the flag in the page on sources of energy is American. We covered it with a Canadian flag sticker this time, but I wonder if you could have a separate page with a Canadian flag (as you do for colour/color). Just a thought.

Hi there,
I made an oops! The flag wasn't intended to be Canadian or American it just happened to be the clip art I had. I have purchased a "generic" flag and made the substitution in the unit. I changed it on the both the photocopy page and the answer page so you can print out both of those changes. I have uploaded the new unit so just go back and download it again and you will get the changes. Sorry about that!!!! Again, thank you for your ongoing support ~ I am so glad you have been happy with your purchases! Your feedback always means a great deal to me!

Thanks for the question. Yes, all the sentences are in the book. The children sort the sentences according to whether or not it could really happen in the real world. For example, real = Froggy hopped into the water; not real = Froggy yelled, "What?" I hope that helps to clarify.
