Hi,
I also love your products. But I noticed a few errors. On the rubric it says "the response is demonstrates" and "address the demand" instead of addresses the demands.
Also, the place value sheet with the decimal and the place value flip chart are backwards (I think :)
thanks,
Betsy

rainbowstyx re: Exploring the Wild West {An ELA Unit}
Hi! I am really interested in all your ELA units. I have been to your blog and love the yearly ELA plan you and your grade level mapped out. I was wondering if you could tell me how you use the chapter books when doing your units. Do you read the book as a class, do you read it to them, do you just use certain sections to teach specific skills? Thanks so much!
May 7, 2013
Primary Punch (TpT Seller)
Hi! I'm so glad you found my blog and are interested in my ELA units! When I read a Magic Tree House book with my kids, those units have a set of comprehension questions for each chapter. So I will give them my kids questions before reading and go over them together, so they know what they're looking for and aren't just zoning out while I read aloud. I feel like this holds them more accountable when listening to me read. I do let them answer the questions as we read too. I use my iPad and SmartBoard to project an e-book version of the book while I read aloud. Many of my kids like to visually track on the Smartboard while I read (and see the pictures better), some of my struggling readers have difficulty with this but I have found they still respond just listening or I may give just a few a copy of the book to track while I read. I have a few class sets of MTH books but mostly I use my iPad to read it aloud. Charlotte's Web was really long so I didn't use comprehension questions per chapter, I did include a few reader response journal questions after I read several chapters but most of that book was just a read aloud. I also try to break up when I'm reading the books aloud, with MTH I read one chapter during our ELA time and then we have silent reading time later in the day and I try to get a chapter in during that time too. I don't want to spend my whole time in whole group ELA just reading aloud (I like to get in some vocabulary and phonics instruction too), so I try to read during others time in the day as well. I don't really teach a specific skills like inferencing or summarizing, etc. when reading the chapter books. Instead I focus on what standards we are using during that unit and try to make sure our reader response questions/chapter questions address those standards. I hope that helps answer your questions, if you want to know more you can always e-mail me at deana.kahlenberg@gmail.com. : )

I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate all you do. You are my favorite because you have such wonderful and creative ideas. Earlier in the year you told me that if I sent you my story information from Journeys you would make weekly take home papers for me. Can I email them to you? When would be a good time? If it is too much I understand. Thanks again for sharing all of your ideas. There are very much appreciated.

I was wondering if you are going to develop lesson plans based on the Curriculum Maps for Common Core ELA. For example: Unit 1 is A Season for Change; Unit 2 is The Wild West, etc. My district is requiring we use this units and the suggested literacy texts. Any way you would develop these 6 week lesson plans for these units?
April 25, 2013
Primary Punch (TpT Seller)
Hi! I haven't planned on writing lesson plans but I do have ELA Units for each theme. Each theme has six weeks and for most I have six weeks of literacy center games, centers and activities. But, I haven't planned on writing lesson plans to go with them. Feel free to e-mail me at deana.kahlenberg@gmail.com if you want to talk more about how we taught using the themes this year. : )

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. Do you have a blog? All of the bloggers are also TpT sellers.

Hi! Thanks so much for purchasing the unit, I really hope you enjoy using it with your kiddos! I do remember you e-mailing! I hope you can find something in the Gray's Creek area, we had several cuts at our school : ( but you never know what may open up before August! If there's anything I can do to help, don't hesitate to send me an e-mail. It's so fun to meet other teachers in Cumberland county!

kathysever re: Greek Mythology {A Character Study}
I am in love this product. It is awesome! I know very little about greek mythology, and this is right up the common core alley! I do have a favor. I am not familiar with all the morals for the stories that you wrote, and the kids and I are a little stuck. For example, with Odysseus and the Cyclops, Odysseus got away with stealing food and then tricked and stabbed Cyclops in the eye to escape. What is the moral or lesson? Would it be possible for you to send me or include the morals/lesson for the stories that you wrote? Some of my kids believe the moral is "Don't take something that is not yours without permission unless you are clever enough to get away." I do not think so.. :)
March 20, 2013
Primary Punch (TpT Seller)
Hi! I am so glad you enjoy the stories! I had the hardest time writing them because the Greek Mythology characters are so entwined in each other's stories and they are complicated! Many of the stories have morals or lessons that are less than desirable to teach to younger students, which is why I was so surprised when the 4th grade teachers requested it because of the CCSS! That being said, when I re-wrote them I did "water them down" a bit to be more appropriate for 4th graders but this also took out some of the details in the original stories. For example, in the case of Odysseus, the cyclops story is just one of many that were written about him in the Odyssey and the Iliad. You will also read about him in the Telemachus story which came years after the Cyclops story. Odysseus did lie and cheat to survive during the war and as a punishment he wandered the Earth for many years including several trips to the underworld. So, as far as his lesson, in the cyclops story he does appear to get away with his actions but in the end he is punished in several ways. This is the case for many of the stories, they don't "end" with just the one story so, it would be difficult for me to send a list of the morals/lessons. Instead, I changed the general comprehension page to have the students reflect on the moral or lesson that was in the story they read. I would also suggest using the specific comprehension pages for stories that have questionable morals, like the Odysseus story. I hope this helps with your students. If you have more questions or want more clarification, please let me know and I'll be happy to help! Thanks again : )

March 10, 2013
Primary Punch (TpT Seller)
Hi! I would say at least 2 weeks if you teach science every day for about 45 minutes. There are 6 different animal life cycles to teach with booklets for each animal, sorts, flip books for each animal, cycle charts for each animal you could make, . There are also 5 journal prompts, a hunt activity, puzzles for independent practice and venn diagrams to compare several different animals. Depending on how quickly you teach and the level of your kiddos you could stretch it to 3 weeks.

germanyLCT re: Tell Me a Tale! {A Speaking and Listening Project with International Folktales}
I am looking to buy this because cultural stories really fascinate me! Would I be able to use this with my kindergarten class? Also, who did the clip art for you? Thanks!!
February 12, 2013
Primary Punch (TpT Seller)
Thanks so much for loving the clip art! It is a mix of designers. Some are KPM doodles, scrappin' doodles, Klouise Digi Art and SpringHill Graphics. I don't think these stories are appropriate for kindergartens to read independently or while tracking. You could read them aloud however, since they are international folktales many of the characters have lying, stealing or cheating and end in death. I know that sounds terrible but these are popular themes in international folktales in order to teach a lesson or moral. I have tried to re-write each story to be more kid-friendly but without taking away the plot of the story. I hope that helps!
February 12, 2013
jegrisham re: Tell Me a Tale! {A Speaking and Listening Project with International Folktales}

Thank you for my cards!!!! Very cute and helpful. Do you have any vocab. regarding fossils, earth changes and such for grade 2? My kit did not make mention. :>)

Our curriculum in NC actually doesn't have us teaching earth materials in 2nd grade. There are cards for earth materials in the 1st grade set of science vocabulary cards. The 1st grade set has vocabulary cards for : rock, soil, sand, silt, clay, humus, hardness, soft, rounded, flat, curved, shiny, dull, texture, stone, gravel, pebble, dirt, conserve, erode, wear away, soak in, layer, wash away, filter with regard to rocks and earth materials.

Hi! I just ordered your word sort pack (love the routine posters!). I had a question about the homework part. On the homework contract, most of the activities to check off say that they were done with a buddy in their group - is this the right one for the homework? I was hoping it would have activities that they can do at home with their sorts since they won't be with their buddies. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi! Thanks so much for your question. I intended for them to be the same so that the student's would see the routines are the same for homework as they are for classwork. If a buddy is required, I recommended a parent to fill in at home. I go over the routines with the parents and students at the beginning of the year as well as the homework contract. If you would like to me to change it, I'd be happy to send you a different copy. You can e-mail me at deana.kahlenberg@gmail.com. Thanks so much!

star123 re: Science Vocabulary Cards {1st Grade Common Core}
I just purchased these cards. I think they are great, however I thought this pack was going to have pictures next to each vocabulary word... Instead it's just the words with no pictures. I already bought the kindergarten words which have pictures, I thought these would be like those but have more vocabulary words, etc. Any plans to make these with pictures to match?

Thanks so much for your feedback! I just updated the packet this evening and added clip art to many of the cards. There are still several without but most do now have pictures. Please let me know if you have any other questions!

In regards to your 2nd quarter problem of the day for 2 nd grade, on page 13 I think it should say problem 9 instead of 6. Thanks! Looking forward to 3rd quarter...

Ashley Montejo (TpT Seller) re: Folktales {An ELA Mega Unit}
Hi! I love your product and I keep coming back to it but haven't bought it yet... It's hard to tell when you can't see everything, but I was wondering if you could tell me if your unit addresses RL2.2 and RL2.3 in any way? These are the two I am looking for -- specifically the concepts below.
•Recount stories, including fables and folktales from diverse cultures and determines their central message, lesson, or moral.
•Describe how characters in a story respond to major events and challenges.
Thanks for the feedback, and I hope this is the product I am looking for!

Hi Ashley! I didn't list those in the Common Core Alignment but you could easily use the Fable Comparison chart for RL 2.3 and RL 2.2 since it is summarizing and comparing/contrasting each fable including the characters, moral/lesson and main event. (The fables are not included, so you would have to find whichever ones you would like to read from the resources you have) Also, there is a minute read for each of the three genres which you could use to recount the stories after reading. I use them for fluency but you could easily ask comprehension questions as well. I also included character cards for popular Tall Tales which you could create charts describing what happened to the characters in each Tall Tale you read to hit the second standard you are looking for. I hope that helps, I know it's difficult to decide without seeing the whole packet. If you have any other questions please don't hesitate to ask and I would be glad to give you a better idea of what else is included.

Jenna Frederick (TpT Seller) re: Science Bingo Bundle Pack {Sound, Matter, Weather, Animals}
I am interested in purchasing this but saw there are only 15 bingo car. Do you have only that number of students in your class? Or how would you suggest using this. I have a class of 18 this year so some students would have the same card. Just wondering what your thoughts are before I purchase. Thanks!
December 28, 2012
Primary Punch (TpT Seller)
Hi Jenna! I do only have 15 this year, I know that's a crazy low number! I had 17 for a little while and I paired up a few students to play bingo ( especially ones I knew would need help). Another option is to have them all play in pairs, we found the questions quite challenging so we discussed answers anyway and this would work well. Or you could just double up on some cards. As I get more students I may add more cards which you could always re-download for free after you purchase it. I hope that helps with your decision and thanks so much for visiting my store! Please let me know if you have any other questions.

kopcakj re: Non-Fiction Text Features Posters
First of all, I didn't think I would find a resource this fantastic when I searched for informational text features! I've downloaded the file and printed them off! They are fantastic! I do have a question though...I teach 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students who have been identified as gifted and we are studying more text features than were included in the file. I was wondering if you could create a few more posters to make the set complete! The features I was hoping you could add are: bibliography, bullets, parentheses, pronunciation guide, subheading, and timeline. It would be very helpful if you could add these!!
And where do you get the fonts for these posters and other things you create? I love them!
One last thing. I was looking at your prefix/suffix packet and was wondering if you think it would be appropriate for students 3-5 that are advanced? Your input would be appreciated!
Thanks for all of your amazing resources!!

Hello!! I will work on the text features and let you know when I have updated them! I think the suffixes pack would be best for 2nd and 3rd graders. I think it may be too easy for 4th and 5th graders although it could be use for 4th and 5th graders who are working below grade level and need some intervention on suffixes and prefixes. I hope that helps. If you have any other questions please let me know! Thanks so much!
