Earth Day is Coming!

By
Earth Day is Sunday, April 22nd. Do you have any lessons prepared to celebrate this very important day?


If you don't, you need look no further than TEACHERS Pay TEACHERS (TpT), an open marketplace for educators.

Each week I receive an e-mail notifying me of 10 Free Downloads. This week, there are some great Earth Day downloads! Brynne and I will be incorporating:

The Great Kapok Tree ~ Celebrating Earth Day by Cooperative Learning 365
Earth Day Report Card by Runde's Room
Lorax Earth Day Craftivity by Mel D

On Friday afternoon, after we get home from Co-op, we are going to watch the movie, The Lorax.


We will also be going to the zoo on Saturday because our local zoo is having an Earth Day celebration.

If you want to do different activities, TpT has 789 Earth Day Materials you can choose from. Some are free, some are at a minimal cost.

I encourage you to stop by the site, look it over, download some great materials and SIGN UP FOR THE WEEKLY E-MAILS! Scroll to the bottom of this link to sign up. I get some great free lesson plans from this weekly e-mail.

Celebrate Earth Day with your students! It's a great thing to do!

A Thomas Jefferson Education "This Week in History" ~ Schoolhouse Review

By
Talk about a GOLD MINE! A Thomas Jefferson Education's This Week in History by Rachel DeMille is her "labor of love" ... and I absolutely LOVE it!

For just $9.99 per month, you can log onto TJEd.com and click the "This Week in History" link to obtain many, many, many resources tied to specific events that occurred in the upcoming week in history. Or even better, you can receive the summaries and links to ALL resources right in your email Inbox each week! It doesn't get any easier than that! What does this really look like in real life? Each week, I receive an email from Rachel DeMille that sets out each date of the coming week. Under the date, there are listed anywhere from one to several events that occurred in history on that date. THEN there are ALL kinds of things to do related to that event, such as books to read, websites to visit, ac...

ABCya

By
Eli's reading resource teacher shared a website with me yesterday that I would like to pass along. It's called ABCya . There are separate educational sections with fantastic games for ages kindergarten through 5th grade. I browsed the 2nd grade level, and it includes age-appropriate games about Letters, Numbers, Shapes, Geometry, Patterns, Mouse Manipulation, Art and Holiday games. There are lots and lots of fun and creative games for children to play. They are fun, but oh, so educational. Eli's favorite, in his short time playing it, was Create a Car . A lot of the games also have Apps available for purchase (99 cents for most of them) for the iPad and iPhone. I have been looking for another free website for games similar to Starfall , for some time. I think I have found it. I can feel confident having Eli and Brynne play these games.
