Will this ever be translated into Spanish?
April 24, 2013
Primary Junction (TpT Seller)
I don't speak Spanish and had to rely on a translator for the Spanish handout. I've asked to have the other handouts translated, but when and if that will happen, I don't know. I certainly hope to have them translated as well! If I can get them translated, I will certainly add them to the packet.

Hi! I've set up a secret group on Facebook called Carolina Bloggers. We are working together to come up with a presentation about blogging and TpT for the Elementary School Conference this year which will be held in Greensboro. However, there are some people who are in the group who won't be able to attend the conference so it's not a requirement. All of the bloggers are also TpT sellers. Are you interested in joining us? You can email me at lauracandler@att.net if you are interested. Just thought I'd let you know about it! ~ Laura Candler

Stacy Tamburelli (TpT Seller) re: Building Skills at Home - Parent Handouts
I love these parent letters. I can't wait to send them home, however most of my families speak only Spanish so I will need them to be translated. I love the READING one is Spanish. Do you have the Spelling, Writing, and Math letter in Spanish?

Hi Patti! I'm sorry you're having trouble opening the file. I haven't had anyone else with this problem and just tried downloading it myself, and it worked fine. When you receive this prompt while opening a file, either something went wrong while downloading (just try downloading the file again) or it is a software issue (needing an update). Here's a link that might help: http://www.ericabohrer.blogspot.com/2012/05/trouble-opening-tpt-files.html

Hi there! I'm sorry that it isn't available anymore. Dr. Seuss Enterprises has unfortunately said that teachers can not create units to go with their books. All TPT sellers had to remove them. :-(

ayoung4 re: Celebrating Christmas & Other Holidays Around The World Unit
I cannot print your files. They downloaded and are saved as a pdf file. I can see the images, but when printing, it says no pages selected, cannot print. It does this no matter what school or home computer I use. Is there a way I need to save this so it will print?
December 7, 2012
Primary Junction (TpT Seller)
Hi there! I *think* it may be a software issue. I tried printing the file off of my computer just now and didn't have any issues. I just uploaded the file again though, so go to your 'My Purchases' tab and download the file again to see if that might help any. If not, please scroll down to the bottom of this page and send TPT a note using the 'Contact Us' form describing the problem, and they will get back to you with instructions. I'm SO sorry for the inconvenience and that I can't be of more help. I hope we can get this figured out ASAP so you can enjoy the unit. If you need to, please feel free to contact me again here or send me an email at primaryjunctionblog at gmail.com

Primary Junction (TpT Seller)
Hi! I haven't created anything similar to a "Our Classroom Story Problems" booklet, but it was probably another teacher's creation/idea that I pinned on Pinterest. I went through my boards to see if I could find something similar - is this what you are looking for - http://loryevanspage.blogspot.com/2011/06/math-work-stations-chapter-5.html ? If so, her TPT page is http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Lory-Evans I would just send her a note, and I'm sure she'd be more than willing to help! If that isn't what you are looking for, please just let me know (and if you still have the Pinterest pin - send it!), and I'll try to find the original creator. :-) Hope this helps!

laurabean re: Celebrating Christmas & Other Holidays Around The World Unit
Is the passport a PDF document or a Word doc? I would love to have this for our upcoming Christmas unit, but we're studying some different countries and would need to be able to change the passport. Thanks!
November 24, 2012
Primary Junction (TpT Seller)
Hi! The passport is in a PDF document, but I included six passports (mixing up the 10 different countries) as well as a blank passport so you could write in (with a pen) your countries if needed. There's also an included note in the unit to just send me an email if you need a custom-made passport (I know we all study different countries!), and I'll make one for you free of charge! Hope this helps!

What is a flip chart and what do I need to open and use it? Can it be used on a smartboard?
November 14, 2012

Hi! A flipchart is a file for The Promethean ActivBoard. The Promethean ActivBoard is very similar to a SmartBoard, but it uses a different software program. If you have any other questions, please just let me know!

Hi there! Glad you like the packet. I corrected this awhile back and uploaded a revised version. You must have purchased and downloaded the file prior to this! If you go to "My Purchases" you should see an update notice next to this file, and just download again. :-)

cwhite10 re: Building Skills at Home - Parent Handouts
Hi! I love your packet of parent handouts. My school has been working on compiling a similar handout to give to our families. I hope I'm not overstepping with this request, but I was wondering if there was any way to get these handouts in an editable format, instead of as a PDF. I teach at a bilingual school and most of our families are Spanish speakers. I would love to send this packet home with our families, but we'd need to translate it. The graphics and formatting looks so good on yours and I'd want the Spanish version to be equally visually appealing, as well as informative. I would be happy to get it translated and then send it back to you as a bilingual document. Please let me know what you think! Thanks!

Hi There Primary Junction,
I am the book review editor for the Tchr2Tchr collaborative blog. I wanted to invite you to be a guest reviewer and write a book review for us. You could review one of the related Titanic books and link your Titanic - Read All About It unit at the bottom of the review. Book reviews can be short; the minimum is 200 words, so a paragraph or two. We would also link your store and your blog to the review.
If you're interested you can find all of the details here:

Hi! I'm sorry to hear you're having a problem downloading the unit. I received a receipt from your purchase, so your purchase did indeed go through. I'm not sure what the problem is. Is the unit listed under your 'Recent Purchases'? If not, send an email to info@teacherspayteachers.com and someone will get right back to you with instructions on what to do. I hope you will enjoy the unit when you are able to download it. Again, I'm sorry for your troubles!

I would love to use the same backgrounds on my own documents (the stars and stripes behind the cute curly bubbles {} shown as both the preview and actual unit pages backgrounds) to make everything coordinate better. How did you get those backgrounds? Can I buy blank versions from you? Thanks!

Hi! Thank you so much for your interest in my measurement unit. I'm sorry I don't have a similar unit for first grade. If I can come up with some good ideas, maybe I will get around to making one some day! I'll keep it in mind. Thanks for the suggestion! :-)

I know this is such a silly question, but I am assuming that a Promethean ActivBoard is the same as a Smartboard...I want to make sure before I purchase some of your resources.
April 8, 2012
Primary Junction (TpT Seller)
Hi! It's not a silly question! The Promethean ActivBoard is very similar to a SmartBoard. It does use a different software program though. Instead of Smart Notebook, there is ActivInspire. You can download it for free at http://support.prometheanplanet.com/server.php?show=nav.19251&changeCountry=United+States As long as you download the software at school, everything should work just fine. I went from working in a school with ActivBoards to working in one with SMARTBoards, so to save myself some time, I just download the ActivInspire software so I could use my same files, and it worked fine. :-) You can always try to download the software and one of my free ActivBoard files just to make sure everything works OK first. If you have any other questions, please just let me know!

Hi! First of all, thank you for your purchase! The Reading Strategies Guide is a digital download. On the Teachers Pay Teachers website, click on the 'My Purchases' tab near the top. When the page loads, you should see all of your purchases, including the Reading Strategies Guide. Click the 'Download Now' button. Once the file downloads, just go to the folder where it downloaded. It is a PDF file, so you will need Adobe Reader to open it. If you have any more problems finding the file, let me know or send an email to info@teacherspayteachers.com Hope this helps! Thanks again for your purchase! I hope you will find the guide very useful!
