I shouldn’t be a pushy product person blogger (that just rolls off the tongue) but I just finished an entire unit of Poetry for Kindergarten and I am so excited to not have to worry about this next year! Of course, it’s the end of the year and we only have one full week left…but […]

Did you go shopping? I did.  Of course. I am going to be using these Reader’s Theater next week since we won’t be going guided reading for the last week of school.  It’s inventory time at school so TpT is my go to. I am hoping to get the kids practicing for their roles tomorrow.  […]
