Help a Friend Out! Editable Word Work Menu

I need a little help.

I've had some requests to make some editable resources for some friends.

I started with this Word Work menu (because who can't use Word Work ideas?).

If you can, please download the freebie by clicking on the pic below.

You'll get a PowerPoint file. If you are a Mac user (like me!), you can upload the file to Google docs or One Drive and edit it by adding your own vocabulary words.

Once you try editing it, please leave me a comment below and let me know how it works.

Be looking for more editable resources to come. I'm looking for a few Goggle Slides users to preview a few products for me. Send me your email if you'd like to help.

We're All Wonders

Palacio, author of Wonder, We're All Wonders will touch the hearts of your students. I've read this to two groups of third grade students and it hit home with both.

Jammin' with Multiplication and Division PLUS Sale and $25.00 TPT Gift Card Giveaway!
