Animal Fact Files & Research Report Templates

It's hard when you are trying to build up your library with enough books for students to read, and also use for reports.  Of course these days the internet has put a new spin on research reports, but that's only if you are lucky enough to have access to good technology.  Anyway, this was the thinking behind this new product I made.  I decided to make a packet where I could assign students an animal research report and also give them a pre-made fact sheet with basic information and some fast facts to get started.  I made some templates and organizers for them to use to gather and sort their information.  Here's how the sample turned out.  Hopefully the finished reports will be cute too!

New Community Helpers Foldables

Well, it seems my life is just full of cute little foldables right now! I was thinking of some new additions to my Community Helpers product on TpT, and decided it might be fun to have a foldable for a few of the different jobs in the community.  These fun little friends have a cut and paste section for the inside, and a picture on the front.  They're added to my product over on TpT now, along with some graphic organizers I added to the set.  Hope you enjoy them!

Rural, Urban, & Suburban Communities - Foldables

So, I had an idea! I was trying to come up with something which would work in our pockets for the different types of communities.  The class are about to study Mrs. Brown Went to Town, so the idea was to bring in the Rural, Suburban, & Urban community types at the same time.  After a little thought I finally had the idea of making foldables for each of the community types, and after a little more work, I had the Barn / House / Skyscraper shapes worked out and ready to go!  I made worksheets for the individual communities, and templates  to go inside the finished product.  Here's how they turned out.  I think they're pretty cute...  If you want to grab yourself the worksheets and templates, head on over to my TpT store:
