Can I get 15 Birthday Wishes?


May 15th is my b-day! 
Since I just did a (very successful) 150 Followers Giveaway and gained upwards of 50 followers...I thought I'd do my own little contest!  
The first 15 comments with their own wish from my TpT Store and their e-mail address will get their wish come true!!  

We're doing a Charlotte's Web Novel Study right now.  This is my first novel study with 3rd Graders and so far...so good.  We have 14ish days left of school and my kiddos are about to jump out their skins seats.  So, today I decided to move class outside.  
We aren't lucky enough (yet) to have the technology available for kids to use in the classroom, so instead I introduced what a wordle is and what it looks like (the more you type it - the bigger it is).  As I read today, students wrote words they heard multiple times onto notecards.  As we read, if they heard the word multiple times they put stars next to the word and they were able to identify which words should be big, medium and little.  Then, we moved class outside and the groups used chalk to create their own wordles.  




This Little Piggy's favorite gift in the world is hearing My Girl say, "Happy Birthday, Mama!"

I love the Wordle idea! It made me think about how I could do that next year with read aloud books and we could even do them inside on the dry erase board and add to them throughout the book. Maybe add 3 words at the end of the chapter that really retell that chapter for us. The index card idea is a great suggestion! I'm so glad I saw this. I thought I was already following you (I swore I was!) but I guess I wasn't so I am now :) Thanks for the great idea!

Happy belated birthday! Found your blog after your guest post on Tonya's blog...you rock!

LOVE that you are a STEM school with no technology; now I don't feel so bad about our lack of technology.

If you haven't sent out 15 products yet, I'd love Multiple Meaning Words (CCSS and TEKS Aligned) STAAR Style Q's...if I'm too late, no worries as I found some great freebies in your store!
