New Pack, Freebie, & 13 in 13 Giveaway!

I have some exciting things to share with you all!  
Over the holiday break I did spend time with family, friends, 
and my adorable puppy.  
I did relax and enjoy some me time :)  
BUT... 
that's not all I did!
I was also working on a unit I am doing with my kiddos 
that I also created into a pack!


Have your students travel the 

United States with this unit!

Included in this 120 page Unit:

50 States Comprehension Read and Response Sheets
Passage written about each state in the country providing geographic, economic, and historical information.  Following each passage are 4-5 questions with space for students to respond by first revisiting the text.  Passages are great for use as morning work, warm-up activity, end-of-day activity, whole group, or small group.


Travel the Country Craftivity
Templates for the students to make their luggage.  This luggage will hold their notes on each state they visit.  (State flags not included in pack because of copyright issues.)



Boarding Passes
In order to have organized traveling of your students, provide them with these boarding passes.  This will ensure that students are dispersed among the states and not all visiting the same few.
State Information Cards
Information card provided for each state with the passages on the comprehension sheets as well as additional quick facts.  I plan on hanging these in the hallway so the students have more room to travel :)

  1. Wow! Your states unit looks like a great resource! I love your "Finding Us Forever Homes" product too. I'm trying to figure out how I can use that with my kiddos in the near future, so it's on my wishlist. :)

    1. Thanks Katie! I have used the Forever Homes in different settings. The first time we found one dog a home as a class. I have also used it in small groups led by me as well as small groups without my instruction. Thanks for stopping by!
