People who just now know that I'm creating things ask me how I have time to do this and work full time and take care of my family. My answer is simple. I'm just enjoying doing this (for now) and it helps me forget my worries. I'm having fun creating new things for my kids at school while hoping to share with others and make learning fun for kids. It doesn't consume all of my time but it's a fun alternative to watching television later in the evening.
So here are some printables with an Autumn/Halloween theme with a focus on some word families. I've used several of these while teaching my own students about different word families and sent one or two as homework as well. They have loved them and I hope you will too! Check out Spooky Spelling in my Tpt Store.
I'm most excited about Jack And The Beanstalk! This is full of all kinds of great skills: Nouns, Verbs, Retelling, Sequencing, ABC Order, Text Evidence, Early Math Skills and so much more. All of this wrapped around the Fairy Tale Jack And The Beanstalk. If you study Fairy Tales, these printables and activities might be a great addition to your Fairy Tale file. Take a minute to preview Jack and The Beanstalk in my Tpt Store.
I hope you'll be able to use either of these in your classroom. Enjoy!
