These cards are terrific. They add additional mediators (signals that the student can attend to) to help a student learn to distinguish between homophones. I can't wait to use these with a third grader and challenge HER to create her own cards for other homophones I will give her. Thanks Nyla!

Pamela Axell re: Measurement Task Cards for Inches - whole half and quarter inch
I think that these are an awesome idea, however, they are not printing to scale. I printed them and then measured them with a ruler and they are off. What do you suggest I do?
June 10, 2013
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
I have good news! When you print the pdf, there is a check box that prompts you to let it 'fit to scale'. Do not check this box. Some printers make this adjustment automatically which put the scale slightly off because you would really want the scale to print at 100%. Always select 'Actual size' when printing. I can relate to what you went through because the same thing happened to me the first time that I printed it out. Then I realised that I just had to change the print settings so do not worry! I included an extra print guide sheet and I added a page with rulers on it that can be printed and photocopied so that each child can have one. These printable rulers will print at the same scale that the cards do, so if the scale is still off for you, the printable rulers would be what your students can use to complete the measuring activities. Your updated file is ready! Just click on the 'My Purchases' tab to re-download it.

I fixed them and I also did the following:
The entire file is now in one Pdf document and no longer a zipped file.
In the third document, I removed the small cards but kept the larger cards. I did this to reduce the file size so that I could upload it as a pdf. (Everyone seems to prefer the larger cards for that activity anyway). - Nyla.

March 16, 2013
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
Hi Cara, I used an html code generated by photobucket. Luckily for me, at the time that I did it, it used to work. Now, when I insert the code, nothing shows, only blank line space. TpT probably changed their coding algorithms or something. But you can still try.
I can't guarantee that it will work but I hope it helps. I learned this and other useful information by being a TBTS - Teaching Blog Traffic School (by Charity Preston from the Organized Classroom Blog) - member. This is a link to it in case you would like to check it out: http://ow.ly/imBky

Rose Mary Betancourt re: 3D Shapes with their Nets and Properties
Is this part of the 3rd grade common core?
March 5, 2013
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
I researched the criteria for the third grade common core and this is what I found:
1. Reason with shapes and their attributes.
2. Understand that shapes in different categories (e.g., rhombuses, rectangles, and others) may share attributes (e.g., having four sides), and that the shared attributes can define a larger category (e.g., quadrilaterals). Recognize rhombuses, rectangles, and squares as examples of quadrilaterals, and draw examples of quadrilaterals that do not belong to any of these subcategories.
3. Partition shapes into parts with equal areas. Express the area of each part as a unit fraction of the whole. For example, partition a shape into 4 parts with equal area, and describe the area of each part as 1/4 of the area of the shape.
It seems that it only deals with 2D shapes. I have a unit for #2 above, it is found here:

carda18 re: Homophones - Flash Cards with Illustrated Pairs and Triplets
Might it be possible to provide a blank page to add other pairs, e.g., none-nun, one-won, earn-urn, blew-blue, made-maid, knot-not, ring-wring, close-clothes, find-fined, bite-byte, carat-carrot, brake-break, way-weigh, choral-coral, wood-would, weave-we've, read-reed, read-red, etc.? Or to provide an additional package with more?
February 13, 2013
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
That's a helpful idea! I'll add the blank page and the others to my to-do list. - Nyla.

carda18 re: Homophones - Flash Cards with Illustrated Pairs and Triplets
Thanks for your extra effort. Actually was unaware that either cheeses or sponges have pores. Just wondering whether your students know this - or if that is part of the learning process. Certainly didn't mean for you to buy other clipart products, etc.
February 13, 2013
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
Okay then (smile). Well not every student would have the same experiences. They learn from each other, pick up new information through questioning, discussion or their own research. One of the favorite moments is seeing them learn these extra bits of information because children are so curious, they want to know everything. So for most, it would be part of the learning process.
February 13, 2013
carda18 re: Homophones - Flash Cards with Illustrated Pairs and Triplets
Unaware that Swiss cheese has pores. Do your students know this?
February 12, 2013
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
The image of the cheese used was the only one available (in cheeses). Purchasing a food set from a graphics provider would have raised the price of this product significantly. I have to think about the pricing as well. Originally, I didn't want to use cheese because of the same reason you mentioned - not every cheese would have pores (at least not visible to the eye). Before, I could not find any clip art image of a sponge for commercial use but I fell in love with the cheese! Anyway, I'm putting in a sponge there for you now. I really hope that it is what you would prefer.

lmattern re: Fractions Tug of War Card Game
I can't get the fraction tug of war game to download (or open) is there something I need to do?
February 8, 2013
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
You may want to try updating your Adobe Reader. Here is what TpT tells us to do: First, if the PDF you purchased is blurry and showing black smudges, you need to upgrade your ADOBE READER is all. If you are on a Mac and still having the same issue, it's absolutely because you are still opening it with PREVIEW and not ADOBE READER. To solve, when you go to open the file, you need to actively select to open it with Adobe Reader, because the Mac will automatically open it with Preview if you don't say otherwise. So in your Finder Window, highlight the file and then click on the tool in the top of the Finder Window that looks like a sprocket or something, then choose Open With and then Other and then select Adobe Reader. Let us know it's solved with a follow up message so we know you're all set.
If the file you purchased is not opening for you at all, it's likely because you do not have the right application to open it! For example, to open ZIP FILES on a PC, you need something like WINZIP (http://www.winzip.com/trialpay.htm) to open it. If you have the old version of Microsoft Office but purchased a DOCX file or a PPTX file, you just need to download and install the converter here (http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=3). If you don't recognize the file extension on the file you purchased, do a Google search for "How to open a .notebook file" for example.
You can try the FAQ as well.
If none of this works, you can email me at gilliannyla(at)gmail(dot)com and I'll email it to you directly.

lisabel24 re: Roll it Say it Telling Time Cubes
Hi Nyla. I just bought your roll the cube time activity. Good idea! However, I found the half past six with both hands at six. The hour hand should be between the 6 and 7, I think. Also at the quarter past times, the hour hand is between not closer to the specific time. I hope my comments help. Thanks for viewing.
February 2, 2013
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
Thank you for the input Lisa. I bought the clock faces from a very reputable clip art provider and I was pleased with the layout of most of the clock faces. But the six-thirty clock was an oversight on her part. I won't be able to edit the clock images but I would have to look for a another source of clock clip art that is more precise. Thank you.

prumburg re: Area and Perimeter Lesson Plans for Squares and Rectangles
I was looking over the thumbnails and noticed one problem said "a kitchen wall....how many tiles are needed to tile the kitchen floor" and " a studio wall....how many tiles are needed to tile the bedroom wall." This change of wording will confuse my students. Will I be able to change the inconsistent wording if I purchase it?
January 12, 2013
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
It is not a confusion. Those are all different examples with a similar theme which is the laying of tiles. (Not the same question or part of the same question.) One example is the large tiles for the kitchen floor, another is small tiles for a studio wall, and there's one for a bedroom wall. They are illustrated (that should help). However, it is a PDF file so you won't be able to change it. What you can do is send me your email via this Q&A tab and I will send you it in Word format (if you purchase it), no problem.

Rose Mary Betancourt re: Prefix Cards with Definitions Illustrations and Examples
Are their common core standards for the product?
January 11, 2013
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
Yes: English Language Arts Standards >> Language >> Grade 3
Vocabulary Acquisition and Use:
Determine the meaning of the new word formed when a known affix is added to a known word (e.g., agree/disagree, heat/preheat).
This product teaches the meanings of different prefixes which will help students to figure out the meaning of any word that these prefixes are attached to. As long as they know the meaning of the root word and the meaning of the prefix, then they can deduce the meaning of the new word formed.

Lilly92 re: Fractions Decimals and Percents Matching Dominoes Card Game
The other day, my students and I tried to play the dominoes game, but couldn't find many matches. Are we supposed to print and cut out more than one set? Also, do you have a sample key that we could look at? Thank you for your help.
December 8, 2012
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
Hi Lilly92, it is more enjoyable to play it with less students and with an extra copy of the card set. Every card has at least one match, some have more than one matches, but by adding more copies, you will have an easier way of finding matches. I will work on a key over the Christmas holidays and will notify all of my customers via Facebook and TpT of its completion. Thanks - Nyla.

November 29, 2012
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
I will re-upload the file right now. It is possible that the site has reverted to the older version... The updated version has both the small set and the large set. I will also send out notifications to all who have purchased it via TpT so that the next time you see this item in your 'My Purchases' tab or if you see it at my store, it will notify you of the revised version. Thanks for following up on this.

East Tennessee Bookworm (TpT Seller) re: Prefix Cards with Definitions Illustrations and Examples

November 28, 2012
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
Hi Sara, six per page? Something is wrong there. If you bought it before October, you would have the version with eight to a page. The current updated version has both 8 to a page and larger cards that are 4 to a page. Go to 'My Purchases and re-download it to see if you get the right file. If it does not work, contact me and I will email it to you directly. -Nyla.

I am trying to download the file, but it keeps telling me that the file could harm my computer. Then it fails during download. Any suggestions?

You may want to try updating your Adobe Reader. Here is what TpT tells us to do: First, if the PDF you purchased is blurry and showing black smudges, you need to upgrade your ADOBE READER is all. If you are on a Mac and still having the same issue, it's absolutely because you are still opening it with PREVIEW and not ADOBE READER. To solve, when you go to open the file, you need to actively select to open it with Adobe Reader, because the Mac will automatically open it with Preview if you don't say otherwise. So in your Finder Window, highlight the file and then click on the tool in the top of the Finder Window that looks like a sprocket or something, then choose Open With and then Other and then select Adobe Reader. Let us know it's solved with a follow up message so we know you're all set.
If the file you purchased is not opening for you at all, it's likely because you do not have the right application to open it! For example, to open ZIP FILES on a PC, you need something like WINZIP (http://www.winzip.com/trialpay.htm) to open it. If you have the old version of Microsoft Office but purchased a DOCX file or a PPTX file, you just need to download and install the converter here (http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=3). If you don't recognize the file extension on the file you purchased, do a Google search for "How to open a .notebook file" for example.
You can try the FAQ as well.
If none of this works, you can email me at gilliannyla(at)gmail(dot)com and I'll email it to you directly.

Cheryl and Jen (TpT Seller) re: 3D Shape Flash Cards with Venn Diagram Sorting Activity
I am looking to purchase this activity, but on your sample thumbnail and on your website, you have the word "square" misspelled on the shape tag. Is this fixed in the download?

The actual file has the correct spelling. Thanks for letting me know, I have updated the preview.

sritter78 re: Homographs and Multiple Meaning Words - Activities and Printables
Would it be possible to change them to homonyms instead of multiple meaning words?
November 13, 2012
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
Hi sritter78, I assume that your school/district prefers the term 'homonyms'. While this term could have been used, the most recent research I done shows that teachers are moving away from this term because it is usually confused with 'homophones'. And I like that the term 'Multiple meaning Words' is self explanatory so that it would lead to easier understanding, memorizing and less confusion for the teachers and students. I cannot change it at this point in time. I hope you understand but thank you for asking. I will keep it in mind but cannot make any promises, as yet. - Nyla.

nicolem929 re: Election Glossary Cards
Is there any way that these cards can be made larger so that I can use them as a word wall in a pocket chart?
October 24, 2012
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
Hi Nicole, I have great news for you! I see that you bought the Election Cards on the 17th, I have since updated the file with larger cards. This was done on Monday the 21st. So, if you go to the 'My Purchases' link from your user dashboard, you should see a file update notification next to the Election Cards link. I hope this helps. - Nyla.

Are the homophone cards in this set eight on a page or four to a page?
October 14, 2012
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
Eight, I will make larger too. By next weekend.

jenpatty (TpT Seller) re: Prefix Suffix and Root Words Bundle
I just saw on Facebook that you increased the size of the prefix cards to four on a page. PLEASE tell me this will also be updated in the prefix/suffixc bundle I purchased. The cards are just too small for direct instruction purposes. I would really appreciate it!
October 13, 2012
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
Yes Jennifer, I'm in the process of making all of the cards in the bundle bigger. It's my little project for the weekend. Thanks for asking because I'm sure others may also be wondering about that. I'll announce it when it's ready!

tcothern7 re: Election Glossary Cards
Hello, I purchased your election cards & was a little disappointed in the size of each card. I was hopeful that I could use these on my board but they were a little small for that. Is there anyway you could email me a non-pdf version so I can make them larger or could you email them to me in a larger format? Thanks so much!
October 13, 2012
Nyla's Crafty Teaching (TpT Seller)
I plan to add a larger version to the PDF file. It should be ready by Monday, for the latest. If you are following my store here or on facebook, you will receive a notification from myself or TpT stating that the file has been updated. Thank you for the feedback! :)

Alice, thank you for telling me. I re-uploaded the correct files and notified all customers. I think that the new up grades to the site affected some files. The version you got was a previous one the I have since changed. But it's all fixed now. Thank you Alice.

Nyla,
I follow you and got your 'followers' email right around the same time I got mine. None of my links work and yours do, so I was wondering what I was doing wrong? I am old school and know html code, so except for one mistake I know my code is right....
So if you have a second, I would love some help!
Thanks, Fern

I copied and pasted your codes in blogger as a draft under the 'edit html' tab and when I clicked compose, they were working links! So I cant understand why they did not work here. Strange.
