Wedding

If you ever want a beautiful site for a wedding, venture down to Hilton Head Island.  We just had one!  Yes, this is my lovely daughter, back from the Peace Corps (almost two years ago), now walking with her dad to marry the love of her life.

We are excited about a new son-in-law, and are excited for Andorra as she enters this new chapter.

Mother's Day Interactive Book and Craft

Here's a very affordable, fun little packet for Mother's Day (which will be here before you know it!).

This is a language/literacy pack to go with Mother’s Day. This packet is meant for the more linguistically challenged students and is perfect for  speech/special ed collaboration. This is nice for integrating literacy and hands-on activities. You are purchasing one interactive book, and a meaningful craft activity with visuals. The interactive book focuses on verbs associated commonly with mothers. The craft includes a step by step set of instructions, and ultimately the child is to pick words or pictures to describe his or her mother.   Clipart is by Smarty Symbols copyright 2017.

Enclosed:

•“What do Moms Do? Verbs, Verbs, Verbs” real photo interactive book (pages 3-13)

•Icons for ‘What do Moms Do? (page 14)

•Sentence Frame for “What do Moms Do?” (page 15)

•Mother’s Day Flower Craft  (pages 17-24) Fun activity where the kids choose words/icons to describe their mom to go on a flower. This comes with icons, step-by-step pictures, and patterns for cutting out the flower. No fancy craft items needed---construction paper, glue, scissors, and printed icons only!  Make this as a Mother’s Day gift!

•Descriptive icons for the flower (page 25) print one for each

•Communication Board for Mother’s Day craft (page 26)

Here are a few screenshots, but you can go to TPT for previews.  It's a great deal, and easy fix to having to plan for Mother's Day.
