First up is a Groundhog's Day Reading Mystery: Once Upon A Crime, BURROW SLIME!
Don’t stress! The Groundhog is OK, but he
is trapped inside his burrow! Your students must read and complete the
activities to remove the burrow slime.
*The
main goal in this mystery is to encourage reading.
*The
work involved to solve the clues covers skills such as comprehension; spelling;
vocabulary; synonyms; cause and effect.
*Students
must highlight the evidence in the reading to prove their answers.
*The
discovery format requires a fill in the missing letter process to unlock clues.
The
alternative B-Edition requires full answers, but, this means students must
check-in with you or somewhere in the classroom to collect the clue instead.
(Please note, that the groundhog is OK
and is just trapped asleep inside his burrow).

You can use these mental math task cards as a math warm up to begin your math lesson, or use as a time filler throughout the day.
Students each have ten digit cards on their desk as you read each card. The students use the digits to keep track of the math tasks they are computing in their head. They love being able to follow along with each task and eventually end up with the correct answer.
I use these cards for whole group, small group, and even partnership lessons.
These mental math problems will increase your students' listening, problem solving, and computation skills.
Do your students need practice with capital letters/capitalization? We all know that capitalization rules, but sometimes our kids always seem to forget where and when to use a capital letter.
This packet will help your students to learn and remember all of the times that they should use a capital letter in their writing. Best of all, there is no prep for you - just print, copy, and go!
The capitalization rules are printed at the top of each page to help your students recall.
