Lapbook Template
Need a great project idea for review all in one simple place? I have developed lapbooks for book reviews, social studies era reviews, science processes reviews, etc. They are easy and fun to make and it's easier for students to keep up (in lieu of notes and handouts)!
Start downloading and preparing for those upcoming standardized tests. I'm currently using a lapbook to review the English/Reading standards for my state's standardized test.

Penguin Facts
Whenever I introduce a lesson, I try to have loads of pictures and information. I felt the my students took well to this Penguin lesson so I thought I'd post it. Since I didn't take the photographs I'm not charging. I did a lesson with my Kinder art classes on drawing habitats and will use the same document to intro a sculpture lesson with my first grades. I love it and I hope you do too!

Brochure: Copyright Laws in Teaching -Nice format, use to make others brochures!
This brochure is nicely formatted and contains information on how copyright laws apply to teachers. Can be a great example for middle and high school courses if students are doing projects on copyright, plagiarism, self-plagiarism, etc.
Or, you can just download this brochure for its aesthetics for your own personal use and change all of the content. I've found brochures are very tricky and time consuming to get the way you want them to look, so it is so nice to have a good foundation broch
