Ocean Crab Writing Craftivity for K-3

I'm excited about my latest teacher-created product just in time for summer and for your ocean units. I've created this cute crab page topper. This packet comes with three different writing prompts in two different formats. One set lets you print the writing prompt with the crab on it. The other set is made so that you can add the crab page topper to the top of it for some great writing prompt craftivities. You can find this product {HERE}.

For a limited time, I am selling these cuties for just $1.00. Afterwards, they will be $1.50 which is a deal for 15 pages of writing goodies.

Enjoy!

R is for Real Earth Day Recycled Craft

I wrestled with the idea of creating a craft for students to do on Earth Day. How can you teach about recycling, reducing, and reusing while you pull the plastic wrapper off a pack of new construction paper? How can you teach your students to reduce while you're passing out a five page handout? That's when my Earth Day Glyph was born. This is a REAL Earth Day Craft for kids.

A glyph is a visual way to represent data. The students answer questions, and based on those questions, their Earth is created by reusing items like newspapers, manila folders, magazines, and even toilet paper rolls. I was very happy with the results. I even created an Earth Day Flip Book that reduces the number of pages you have to print. This book teaches about reducing, recycling, and reusing, and it has the glyph questions on it.

Please visit my store {HERE} to check it out.
