I made this unit study for Baloo, in 2nd grade, but I’m sure a 1st or 3rd grader could use it just fine. Probably even a kindergartener if you’re willing to help with the reading and writing! Looking for a more In Depth Unit Study? Check out my Hands-on Ancient Egypt Unit Study here. All…
Last year Baloo and I worked through All About Reading level 1, and this year we’ve started level 2. I absolutely love the program, and I’m sure we will continue through to level 4 eventually! We were faced with a bit of a dilemma this year – space and organizing. I needed to be able…
It’s time for the August Virtual Book Club for Kids and the author this month is Donald Crews! I knew we’d be doing Freight Train this month – after all, Logi-Bear is crazy about trains. Crazy might not even describe his love for trains. I love how Crews shows motion in the book. …

For the summer we have been working through Easy Peasy with Royal, but I’m adding in a few hands on activities to go with the letters. It’s fun for me, fun for him…win-win! For B week we decided to have a pseudo-row of Blueberries for Sal. We love this book so reading it everyday, multiple…
Wall cards!! They’re here!!! I’m so excited about these cards! When Logi-Bear saw them he flipped out, and I’m so happy that he’s excited about the letters. Makes everything totally worth it! These wall cards are full page. I did this for a multitude of reasons, but mostly because it gives you the choice…
I love shark week. Though…I’m not sure why. I don’t care for sharks, but even more so, deep water gives me anxiety. So I can’t actually watch shark week. I think part of it is that everyone else gets so excited that I feed off the energy, and the other part is that the boys…
Yep, it’s that time again! BOB Books Printable Time!! This time the team is returning to bring your printables for set 3. Cassie from 3 Dinosaurs and Becky from This Reading Mama, and I have teamed up to bring you an amazing set of printables to go along with the books! This time I…
When the Virtual Book Club did Kevin Henkes books I absolutely fell in love with all of them, but Birds stuck out most. First of all, Royal just adored the book. And I loved it, too! Whenever we spot it at the library we pick it up and keep it for a few weeks. I…
A friend of mine recently asked for some fun fire truck printables for party favors at her sons birthday party and I was so happy to be able to help!! Plus, I got to think outside the educational box I had myself trapped in. I wanted to make something really fun, perhaps with a bit…
I apologize for the long delay in getting this out. I had intended on continuing through the summer – but multiple unexpected events led to the delay. A few people have asked if I will be finishing the alphabet, and the answer is YES! I’m halfway through now and not planning on stopping anytime soon…
