Thanks so much! My students are still enjoying these! I am going to change the wording of the side that has "etymology." When I do, I will have it included in the packet so you can decide which wording you would like. I will email you and also it will be sent as a notice from TPT to download the revised product. I want my students to be aware of what etymology means so that is why I use it. Pam

Pam DAlessandro (TpT Seller)
Thank you so much for buying my product! I just uploaded a FREE Arrows for Spinners Packet! Feel free to download and use with my spinner activity! : )
You know I do not use those, as stated in the item instructions, I just use a paperclip and pencil. The paper spinners do not seem to 'spin' well enough. I am sorry you didn't email me before giving me a 3.5 rating on this item, because I would have revised this item immediately with a spinner. Thanks for buying this product and I know you will get many years use out of this item! Pam

Thank you Jeff, I am glad you can use this. I also used it with my 5th graders even though it was for my 4th graders.

I put the wrong credits on my credit page. I am so sorry. I don't know how I did that or where that little graphic and name came from! Tonight, as soon as I get home, I will change it. You are supposed to be in the far right little box and your name and all beside it! Such sweet little birds and I love them so much, I hate I put the wrong name in! I'll use your "Joy of Teaching" graphic and then your name and all. Again, I am so sorry!

cmflynn4 re: Unit for Trickster Tales Study Guide - 3rd HM Reading Series CCSS Aligned
I purchased the trickster tale study guide - is there any way to get it in word format so that I can edit it? I don't need all the center page or the part about dolphin dollars as I do something different. Thanks!

I did that in a program called InDesign which is used by printshops. I am so sorry it can't be edited with Word. The only thing that you can do is to replace the middle page (2 half pages) with the items you want to include. Some teachers have put an entire worksheet type page and copied it on a copier. Also, if you type up something in word on landscape you can just insert it since it is the middle of the study guide. Hope this works for you. Pam

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I started working in the school system in 1999. I have taught computers, K, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grades. I am always the oldest one around and enjoy helping other teachers. Most of my teaching is tried and true, but I always welcome new and exciting ways to get students involved in their learning. Update! I have moved to the coast and am enjoying teaching 4th and 5th grade AIG students Reading and Math. I am embracing the Common Core Curriculum and try new ways to integrate my subjects.
MY TEACHING STYLE
I do whatever it takes for students to learn. I like manipulatives and color. I can't always print in color so I try to use bright cardstock whenever I can. I also will print on white cardstock and use sharpies to add color before I laminate. Really makes things stand out! I do not like to waste paper and copies are limited so I try and make everything I use count! I write all my lesson plans so they are interactive with whatever resource I am using. This makes the lesson flow easier with the smartboard, internet, and powerpoints.
HONORS/AWARDS/SHINING TEACHER MOMENT
I have been Teacher of the Year and work continuously to help other teachers.
MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY
I plan to get my Masters of Education in 2012.
ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION
I am a mom of three boys and have two grandsons. I love to knit and watch birds. I am so thankful for what I have been given and want to give back as much as possible by helping and nurturing every child that crosses my path.
