I have a little something in the works...

I just received a new book from my most recent Scholastic order and it has inspired a new unit! 


It's no secret that this book is kind of a big hit around the Thanksgiving holidays, but it's new to me and so I wanted to make a new writing mini unit to wrap up our persuasive writing unit.


I'm hoping to have this completed this weekend because I'm using it next week! 

In honor of my return to the blogging world, I will be giving away this unit on Sunday evening! In order to enter, all you have to do is leave a comment telling me what you are most thankful for this holiday season! 

Happy Holidays!

  9. I am thankful for the health of my family. We've had a rough go of it when the twins were born at only 26 1/2 weeks gestation. They will be 21 years in Jan. Good is good.
