Teacher Appreciation Freebie

I appreciate teachers and want to show it this week by offering my Simile Fun Unit as a freebie.  You can see more great  items to use with this unit on my Presentations Page.  The unit should work well for grades 2-5.  It is very adaptable. 

If you download the unit, would you consider following my blog?   I would also love to hear from you!

As I have mentioned before, Fireflies by Julie Brinckloe is a great book to use for teaching similes.  Here is a freebie to use with the book.

Teaching Similes

I wanted to show you this great bulletin board and teaching idea!  This activity was part of a PLC that I am doing with K-2 teachers.  We read the book Fireflies, by Julie Brinckloe.  The teachers were asked to write a quick memory that was inspired by the book.  We added a simile to the quick write using examples in Fireflies.  This experience allowed us to showcase teacher writing, and provide a tool that teachers could use to teach similies.  Teachers were given the writing collection to use with students.  Thank you Mrs. Madden for the artwork!
