This is a fantastic unit! I was able to pick it up and start using it immediately. I am using it to supplement our social studies textbook and infusing video clips. It gives a great overview and sequence of events and provides great background information. The readings are very high-quality and grade-level appropriate. I am planning to look into the other units created by Splash! Publications and add them to my year-long Social Studies plan.

Ah...thanks so much! Our passion has always been history, but we have been dabbling in Language and a little bit of Science. I won't ever say never, but....why don't you teach 5th grade Social Studies? We could provide your entire 5th grade curriculum for you! :) Thanks again!!

Do you offer a site license for your products?
May 11, 2013
Splash! Publications (TpT Seller)
Hi,
Thanks for contacting us. If I'm understanding your question correctly, I think the answer is that you can choose to buy multiple licenses for any of our products by clicking on the Buy Multiple Licenses in the top right-hand corner of the page. So if you have, say, 6 teachers who want to use our Westward Expansion Unit, you would click on that button and buy the license for 6 teachers. Did I answer your question?
Let me know...
Thanks!

Hi Melissa,
Yes, we've thought about it--quite a bit! We just think that the price point would have to be too high to make it desirable. Sold separately, they come to over $100. Since you've asked, what do you think a buyer would be willing to pay for all 8 units with audio?? Thanks for letting me use you as a guinea pig! :)

Hi Scott,
The bundle contains all of that--our 2nd Grade CC Language Unit--a file with all of the lessons/activities for the 2nd Grade CC Language Standards, a file with the Posters, and a file with the Daily Practice--there are 4 Practice Cards and one Test (Assessment) for EACH of the 20 Second Grade CC Language Standards.
To get a better idea of the Assessment component, I would suggest downloading the Preview for the Second Grade Daily Practice:

Hi and thanks for your question. I don't think it will matter if I email the American Flag file to you--it's the same pdf that is on the TPT download. Have you tried downloading the newest version of Adobe Reader? If this doesn't fix the problem, then TPT technical support needs to know about the issue. Let me know...

Thanks for asking! Do Colorado! is our complete curriculum--the Colorado History Unit is just a "piece" of that. Do Colorado! includes a unit on Colorado's Geography, Colorado's Animals, Colorado's History (the unit that we offer on TPT), and Colorado Government and Economy. Hope that answers your question--feel free to contact me again!

Hi. I'm sorry you're having problems--I've seen this issue before. If you download the newest version of Adobe Reader, it will fix the situation. I do not have your email--TPT keeps that private.

BBoyerx3 re: 13 Original Colonies Unit-Common Core
Should the students be allowed to use material read to answer the "after reading" questions/tests?
January 12, 2013
Splash! Publications (TpT Seller)
Absolutely! The comprehension questions are not tests. They are informational text reading comprehension practice. The goal is for students to look back into the information that they've read--using the sub-headings, maps, vocabulary, and illustrations to answer the questions and draw inferences from the text. This gives them exposure/experience with the kinds of questions that they will see on standardized tests.
I even let my students use their vocabulary cards on the vocabulary quizzes (totally up to you), but if they've done the work of keeping up with and filling out the vocabulary cards on a daily basis, then they may use them on the quizzes. Those who do not have the cards finished must take the quizzes without them.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
Thanks!
Amy

Hmm...I don't know how it happened, but the preview that you downloaded was for our Louisiana Purchase Lesson. The wrong file was there. That's CRAZY, and I'm sure it was human error--mine! In the Louisiana Purchase lesson, there IS a persuasive writing assignment that asks students to write a letter to President Jefferson convincing him NOT to buy the Louisiana Territory. I would be happy to send you a copy of this lesson--it will go well with the Louisiana History lesson that you purchased.

Hi Amy. Thanks for asking. The lessons can be used in whole groups or centers. In our classrooms, we always read the lesson aloud and discuss with our students and then use the activities as center work.
There are 22 lessons in the First Grade Unit, so we would do the first two lessons completely as a whole group--since the lower level activities in each lesson are repetitive, once your kiddos get the hang of them, they can work on them independently in their centers.
The unit requires them to make a Language Notebook (journal), so they can definitely do this as center work. We use composition books (the black and white ones), but you can also use spiral notebooks so the kids can cut and paste the Language cards in their notebooks and use them for reference. We review their Language cards on a daily basis as part of our morning routine.
I encourage you to download the preview so you can see the complete Table of Contents and Lesson Plans--these will give you a good overview of the unit. Feel free to email me with questions. amy@splashpublications.com

Hello,
Thanks for your question. Our American Revolution Unit starts before the beginning of the war and takes students to the end. There are 9 lessons in the unit. We showed alignment to the 5th grade CC Standards because it is taught most often in 5th grade. That doesn't mean it wouldn't fit into a 7th grade scenario. You can download the preview which has the complete Table of Contents and sample lessons/activities so that you can get a "feel" for the curriculum and see if it is appropriate for your 7th graders:

I am new to fourth grade. I teach in Tennessee, and we have not adopted the common core standards for fourth grade. However; I feel they are better for teaching because of the depth that the standards carry the information. I am about to start the American Revolution and i noticed you a couple of "battle" units and then one that just says American Revolution. Is everything from the battle units contained in the larger unit?
December 3, 2012
Splash! Publications (TpT Seller)
Thanks for your question--and you're right, teaching to the Common Core standards will give students a greater depth of knowledge. The answer to your question is yes, the individual American Revolution lessons are included in the American Revolution Unit. If you're looking to teach the entire American Revolution, it's cheaper to do so by purchasing the unit instead of the individual lessons.
You can see the complete American Revolution Unit here on TPT:

Hi, am a new follower AND fan! :) Your Social Studies units look fantastic and just what I am looking for with our study of American History. I did notice, or think I did, an incorrect fact in one of them...your Columbus one. :) If I am not mistaken, Marco Polo did not sail around the tip of Africa. I believe that was Vasco da Gama. Otherwise, the unit looks awesome. :)
Best wishes,
Jody

I purchased the Core standard Unit for 2nd grade. On page 87 Question 3 reads:
Use the contractions in bold to combine these simple
sentences into one compound sentence.
a. I want a piece of cake. I want ice cream. (and)
__________________________________________ It should read use the conjunction in bold.
Thanks,
Ellie

I downloaded the NC History but there are NO powerpoints as defined in the preview.

Hi, thank you for contacting us. I'm a bit confused by your question--I've looked at our Product Overview information and we don't indicate that powerpoint slides will be included. Here's what our Product Overview reads:
"We've even included a color version of the lesson for your White Board, black line masters for your students, a context-appropriate Glossary, and grading rubrics for the higher-level activities."
Since it is a PDF, the color copies of the lesson can be shown on your White Board. I hope this helps clear up any confusion. Please feel free to contact me again should you need anything else.

I purchased your Thanksgiving Unit-Common Core. I am using the grid. I was looking at the Mr. Turkey Grading Chart. It is done for a Santa Maria activity. Is this a mistake or just an idea to use?

Splash! Publications (TpT Seller)
Oh my goodness! You're right! I can't believe how many of these we have sold and nobody has ever alerted us to this. A corrected unit will be available for download in just a few minutes--if you don't want to wait, you can email me at amy@splashpublications.com and I will email you the corrected answer page. So sorry and THANKS!!

azferres re: Cricket in Times Square Literature Study Guide
Does your literature study guide include a reader's theater script for Cricket in Times Square?
November 7, 2012
Splash! Publications (TpT Seller)
Thank you for your question. The original play in Cricket in Times Square has a script with reading parts for the Narrator and all of the main characters. Students can memorize their parts or the script can be used in a Reader's Theater format. I've done it both ways in my classroom--I divide the students into small groups and each group makes its own props and then the group decides how it will deliver the lines. I hope this answers your question!

iherrera25 re: Illinois History Lesson-Common Core-Audio Included!
If I purchase, can I download and save to my flashdrive or computer?
October 12, 2012
Splash! Publications (TpT Seller)
Thanks for your question--I think this is a question for TPT support. I'm not sure what you can do with a lesson once it is downloaded--it would make sense that you could save it to your flashdrive and your computer--but I wouldn't want to mislead you. If you go the the HELP section of this website, there are FAQ that should answer this. You can also contact TPT directly through email--they are great about getting back to you quickly.

Chris Cheshire re: Prefixes and Suffixes-Second Grade Common Core Lessons
The words prefix and suffix are missing letters in several of the pages! Can you correct this?

Hi. Thanks for contacting us. I've looked at the pdf, copies and I'm not sure that I understand what pages you are referring to. Could you email me the copy that you downloaded? amy@splashpublications.com.
We've sold quite a few of these lessons and haven't had any similar complaints--perhaps your copy experienced problems during the download process...I'd love to fix it, but I need to see exactly what you're seeing. Thanks!

I purchased your Liberty Bell lesson and the description said that there was a smartboard lesson included but I did not receive it. Can you please send me the smartboard slides?
October 4, 2012
Splash! Publications (TpT Seller)
Hi Veronica--thanks for your question. The description for the Liberty Bell Lesson reads:
"We've even included a color version of the lesson for your White Board, black line masters for your students, and grading rubrics for the higher-level activities."
There's no mention of a "Smartboard lesson" in the description--the color copies of the lesson can be used on your White Board. Hope this helps clear up any confusion. Thanks!

Lorie4001 re: Context Clues-First Grade Common Core Lesson
Sentence number 4 and 5 do not have the sentences written on the line like the others do....Are they supposed to be like that? Just checking! Love the lesson/activity....

Splash! Publications (TpT Seller)
Thank you for your question. Yes, we did that with all of the 1st grade lessons--two or three sentences to get them started and one or two to do on their own.

Thank you for your response. Yes, that helps! I had printed the packet and do not have a color copier, so I didn't realize that color and black and white were included. I was just concerned that pages were missing because of duplication. Now I understand. Thank you for a great product and taking the time to clarify for me.

Valerie Clark re: Montana History Lesson-Common Core-Audio Included!
I purchased the Montana History Lesson-Core Standards. I was disappointed to see that pages 5-11 were duplicated in pages 12-18. Was this intentional or was there supposed to be other pages there?

Hi Valerie--I'm not sure that I completely understand, so bear with me as I try to answer your question. Included in the packet should have been everything that was listed in the Product Overview for the Montana History lesson--there should be 32 pages--black and white pages of the lesson for making copies for your students (pages 12-18), color pages for use on your Smart/White Board (pages 5-11), Reading Comprehension questions, a Language Skills activity, background information and a graphic organizer for writing a Mountain Man story, a Vocabulary Quiz, a context-appropriate Glossary, and Answer pages. Did you not receive all of those items? Let me know ASAP so I can make it right for you. Thanks! Amy
