New! Plural or Possessive? Task Cards and More! (CCSS Aligned)
Yay! I finally finished a new Mini Pack! I've actually been planning this Plural or Possessive pack for YEARS (no kidding) because I know how difficult it is for kids to distinguish between plural and possessive nouns. This is a beginner level packet designed for grades 1 through 3 and is closely aligned with those standards. However, it would also be a great review for 4th graders and would be helpful for special ed students. You can preview the entire packet online in my TpT store.

Bright Ideas Blog Hop
Do you know about the Bright Ideas Blog Hop? It was hosted by almost 200 hundred bloggers, and each one of us shared a useful teaching tip for the classroom. I shared tips for using camp chairs in the classroom because I found them to be so versatile and useful. You can read the other blog posts by starting with this post on Corkboard Connections and using the links at the bottom to find articles of interest. There's also a Bright Ideas Pinterest Board you can follow!
