It has been a busy and quick start to school! My favorite time of year is here....Cool breezes, Pumpkin Spice Lattes, and football....FALL!!!!!  There is just a little something extra is the air this time of year! 

With the popularity of my September Close Reading Packet, I have finally finished one for the month of October. 

There are 4 passages- Pumpkins, Firefighters, Bats, and Spiders. 
•4 Close Reading Passages
•Weekly Lesson plans
•Vocabulary Cards and Black line masters
•Partner Work activities
•Weekly Questions
•Anchor charts for each close read
•Class Book Activities

•Weekly writing activity


This packet includes everything you need for a weekly close reading lesson that ties in with science and social studies! I hope you enjoy!

Happy Fall Y'all!!!!

Happy first official day of fall!!!  I am soooo excited I can't stand it! I love EVERYTHING about the fall...the weather, boots, football, pumpkins, my birthday....It's just the absolute best!!! With fall, also comes my absolute 2 favorite teaching units....APPLES and PUMPKINS!!!!  We just wrapped up our apple unit in class and it was a blast!!!  We ended this week with making applesauce and enjoying a special apple snack with apple muffins, apple cookies, apple chips, apple straws, apple butter, and apple juice...OH MY!  The kids love it!!! I am currently working on a fabulous apple unit to add to my teachers pay teachers store!

I have FINALLY finished my pumpkin unit....94 pages of fabulous pumpkin activities that can be incorporated into reading, language arts, and math! I don't know about all y'all, but I don't have the amount of time that I would like to have to teach complete units.  I find creative ways to incorporate my units into the other subjects. Hopefully, this unit will help!!!  Isn't it the cutest!!!!!!
Check out my teachers pay teachers store here!
ENJOY!!!
