A Reading Shell-a-bration & A FREEBIE!

I just uploaded an ocean themed packet to use during our school’s Right to Read Week (a week long reading celebration we have annually in Ohio).  It is not intended to be a complete unit.  It was intended to help integrate the theme easily into my classroom!   If you don’t celebrate Right to Read week, you could have your own beach-themed shell-a-bration, or you could opt to use these resources to wrap up your school-year with summer themed resources!  If you're interested in scoping out the resources I've created for our Right to Read Week Reading Shell-a-bration, you can preview the 16 page file HERE. The first three people to comment on this post will get this packet for zero dollars!  :) 





Also, again, I'd like to take the time to thank everyone who follows my blog and TpT store.  I love the fabulous collaborative community we've built through our blogs, and I love learning from all of you.  In honor of surpassing 600 followers this weekend, I'd love to share yet another freebie file with you.  (I was going to share it with you anyway, but this gives me a good reason to celebrate!  Ha!)  This poster has been extremely helpful to my students when they are working with informative texts.  I hope you'll find it useful with your own kiddos!
