A Pirate's Treasure of Multisyllable Long Vowel Words and the Giveaway Winner!

I love all things pirate! Don't you?
You and your little mates can combine decoding multisyllable words with long vowel sounds and writing sentences with this activity.
Students draw a pirate card and a shark card. They use the word on the pirate card to write the type of sentence on the shark card.

Just click on the pic above to get the activity.

Congratulations to Andrea L. She is the winner of my Back to School Giveaway and gets the Thinking Mats from Carson Dellosa. Check your email, Andrea!

Boot Scootin' Freebies!

I'm joining up with some boot scootin' Tennessee teachers for a
Boot Scootin' Blog Hop!
If you haven't seen the beginning of the hop, click on the blue pic below to go to the first post at Kickin' It In Kindergarten. Follow the blog hop for some great freebies for grades K-2.


My freebie is geared to helping my kiddos make better word choices when they are writing. We have worked hard to use synonyms that might paint a better picture when we are writing. They know not to use good, nice, fun, run, or walk if they can think of a better word. Click on the pic below to get the freebie.


Word choice has just been one part of our focus this year. We have worked hard on writing sentences. Click on the pic below to see one of my  products in my TpT store that I use in my literacy stations. It's a baseball-themed packet of activities focusing on expanding sentences.

Click on the button below to visit Teaching Times 2, the next stop in the Boot Scootin' Blog Hop. They are twins who get to teach in the same school. How fun is that!!



If you purchase two products from my store and send me the receipt, I'll send you a product of your choice free. Just email me a copy of your receipt and your choice of a free product, and I'll get your goodie right out to you!

And if you prove you are a follower of both stores, I'll send you another free product! No purchase is necessary! Just send me an email with the name you use to follow, a screen shot from both stores that show you as "Following," and I'll send the free product to you. Please follow BOTH stores to get the deal! I'll close this offer on Sunday, April 15, at midnight. My email is pitnerm107 at gmail.com. (Trying to avoid that spam!)

Simple and Compound Sentences Sort - Freebie!

We begin writing compound sentences this week.
My kiddos have done a pretty good job expanding simple sentences, so I'm hoping that will carry over to writing compound sentences. Once I think they know the difference between a simple and compound sentence, I'll use this activity as a quick formative assessment in small groups.
Click on the pic above to get your copy. If you like this activity, go {HERE} for more compound sentence activities at my Teachers Notebook Shop.
Can you leave a compound sentence as a comment? :)
