The Little Spot of Emotions Books by Diane Alber are a great resource to use to teach Social Emotional needs in your classroom. I have created worksheets to pair with each little spot book to use for bibliography, SEL lessons, etc!

This package includes resources bundled into one assignment for gifted learners. I use this as an extension for my gifted students and early finishers. This can serve in the General Ed. classroom as an accommodation for your high achievers or gifted students who finish content and lessons before everyone else.

The perfect activity to spike your students' interest when it comes to differentiating between primary and secondary sources. These handouts provide the definition of each and websites for the students to search, record the title of the article, website, journal, or book and decipher whether or not it is Primary or Secondary. KEY INCLUDED!

This resource combines citation practice, with an army boot camp room transformation. This is one of my students' favorite lessons! Although the content is extremely rigorous, the boot camp keeps them engaged!

Thanksgiving Themed Lego Challenge Cards! Love to use these with my centers + early finishers!

I am in LOVE with this product. These images are hand drawn by yours truly. Since they are watercolor, they show up best on a white background but they are transparent so you can overlap and use more efficient and creatively. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Christmas themed Lego Challenge Cards - fun for any age/grade/class!

These are PERFECT for early finishers, engineering minded students, center time and makerspace! Includes: 43 different lego challenge cards with hand made border, and a free border attached for you to use into your own materials!

WARNING: the Bitmojis may be a tad pixelated, however this did not stop us from using the template and the kids LOVED it! PERFECT first day of school activity! The students filled in their personal information, and designed/colored their bitmoji's to look just like them!!

This mini unit takes students through the exploration of Newton's Laws of Motion and the Engineering Design Process to lead them to building their own Marble Maze and/or Roller Coaster!

This is a fun and cute way to get your students excited to write! I used to LOVE to teach writing  to bright little minds that so yearn to learn. This resource would be perfect for ELA classes ranging from 3rd grade to 7th!

I have taken the time to create the graphics for a Garden Themed alphabet. This alphabet includes lower-case and upper- case letters with graphics to tie in the sounds with a picture! I had a blast making this and hope you enjoy it as much as I did!! This would be perfect for an Early Childhood classroom: Pre-K, Kindergarten, or even First Grade! I have supplied on some letters a higher-level word/sound so that the alphabet cards can be flexibly used with your fast learners.

This tiered lesson provides an entire plan including activities, pre assessment and post-assessment tools, standards, objectives, rubrics and much more!

A 6 step process on how to research that is easy for kids/students to follow!
