always batty in the fall

Fall is the perfect time to study and appreciate the most amazing flying mammal, bats! This collection has both fiction and nonfiction read alouds, songs, drawing activities, and more. Some upper elementary educators don’t embrace picture books quite as much as I do- but these books may not be ones your students would hear without your help. They are picking more mature/challenging books- but these still have great vocabulary and curriculum connections! Push picture books through middle school! #picturebookpusher

Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day!

Click on the pirate themed Bimoji classroom to celebrate TLAP Day with me! There are reading, drawing and craft opportunities aboard. It’s my favorite fall holiday ever! The great thing about this nonsense holiday is that it gives kids and adults something funny to connect with at the beginning of the school year. How can you not have an amazing day at school when your teacher is wearing pirate gear and calling you a scurvy dog when you don’t do yer work?
