Science State Test Review

Check out my ELA blog here for ideas of how to review for State Exams!  We don't have one in science for 6th grade so these are for 6th grade ELA but can easily be changed for Science practice.  Check it out! :-)

Calling all teachers---Pretty Please!!!

Hi all!  This post is to ask you to pretty please with sugar on top hop over to this posting at my ELA blog...The Superlative Six .  It is about teachers banning together to help out the victims of the tornadoes in Kentucky/Indiana earlier this month.  It is a great link to studying current events and natural disasters.  See how I used it in Science class and how it can help out a great cause!  Thanks so much for taking a look!

Much love!!!

I (((heart))) Scholastic

Hey all!

    So sorry for being totally out there and not posting in practically forever.  It's been CRAZY.  Anyway, I just wanted to share an awesome FREE PRINTABLE from Scholastic.  It can be found here at http://teacher.scholastic.com/lessonrepro/reproducibles/profbooks/MessageinBottle.pdf  You can use it to teach Latitude/Longitude in a fun and new way where they work to save the shipwrecked islands!  TOTAL LOVE since everything you need is right there!!!  Anyway, I hope you enjoy it!  I worried it was too "babyish" for 6th grade and they loved it!  A modification I made was to have students just "X" the islands they landed on instead of using coins.

Happy Saturday!
