    I can actually only use some of the activities. I don’t believe children should be encouraged to have “bests.” It gives them an excuse to not try in something that is not their favorite. For instance, if you believe your favorite subject is literacy, you can just say, “Math isn’t really my thing.” – for the rest of their life. Same with friends. Having best friends means some kids will be left out.

WHAT EDUCATORS ARE SAYING

Theme Task Cards and Printables Digital Option COVER

These task cards are set-up for easy use by the students in the Google classroom. The text is engaging and with the recommendation for 3rd grade to 6th grade, all students have an opportunity to have success.

Debra N.
growth-mindset-soft-starts-warm-ups

I loved this resource! It was simple to use, engaging, and relevant. I loved the simplicity of each slide. The text and graphics were kid-friendly, beautifully formatted for easy reading, and best of all, there was no prep!

Barbara S.
creative-journal-writing-prompts-5th-grade

This has been a great resource for our journal writing in class! The prompts are always thought provoking and even get my hesitant writers to get something on the paper. Thank you!

Ashley F.
free-figurative-language-posters

This is an excellent resource. Well created, student friendly, clear and concise! Thank you so much for sharing your talents!

Caryn D.
end-of-year-character-traits-awards

I absolutely loved these awards! I love all the categories. I love all the sayings that go with each category. I love how there are boy and girl awards for each category, and most of all I love how super easy it was to use! All I had to do was enter my name and date and it was added to each award automatically. Then all I had to do was fill in the names. Thanks for this resource!

Michelle N.
growth-mindset-bell-ringers-journal

owen-and-mzee-activities-literature-unit

I used this during our Owen & Mzee unit on an emergency SUB day! The digital resource was perfect to assign via google classroom at home. I loved that my students were able to independently review multiple skills with our current text.

Mrs. Clark
growth-mindset-affirmations

My class does Daily Affirmations, and these cards create great conversation starters as well as reminders. They enhance our Growth Mindset board so beautifully and help keep me on track when I start to feel frustrated. Print, laminate a set for your wall, and have kids copy them into a journal. Such a great boost to start the day!

Kelly B.
figurative-language-sort-activity

The examples on the cards were awesome. I was able to use the cards in multiple ways (bingo, flashcards, etc). This is an awesome resource.

Alison B.

The task cards work wonderfully in literacy centers. They provide quick review and serve to upgrade student’s writing. Environment skill support is essential, and the anchor charts provide the scaffolding needed by many.

Debra N.
growth-mindset-picture-book-activities

This is everything you could need and more. The titles are awesome, and the activities are so well done. My kids loved it across both of my grades. Wow!

main-idea-and-details-task-cards

Getting to the main idea of a passage can be difficult for some students. Use this digital, as I did, for morning work or homework. Print out the PDF version and work small group.
