Exploding Box for Mother's Day!
Just loving this new idea ... so creative and loads of space for students to personalize this for Mom / Mum / Grandma / Aunt / Sister. I made sure that it works for all!
Watch the video to see how it is made ...
What you need:
You must photocopy on 8 1/2 x 14 (legal size) paper. I just used regular paper. Students will need coloring pencils, glue and scissors! That's it.
Includes step-by-step instructions, graphics and templates needed to create this Exploding Box.
The Exploding Box measures: 5.5 x 5.5 x .75 inches when it is closed. That's why I insist you use legal size paper (8 1/2 x 14) so that this is a good size!
Moms will cherish this Exploding Box for years to come ... because it really is unique and lovely! Check out the video and have a look before you purchase to make sure you love it and that it is right for your students!

What Pet Should I Get? Mini Foldable Books
Books can be used with the new Dr. Seuss book.
Contains 24 Mini Foldable books!
- 3 different books for each of 8 pets
- pets are: dog, cat, fish, bird, hamster, rabbit, turtle and snake
- the 3 books for each pet are set up as follows: easy reading (emphasizing is, has and can), a rhyming book and a more challenging book with factual information about the pet
Each mini foldable book consists of just one sheet of paper. These books are easy for students to put together - just fold in half twice and trim the edges, if they desire! Each book has a title page, 2 reading pages and the last page is a spot for students to draw a picture. Use the books in literacy centres, read-alongs, or send them home for additional practice.
Makes a great addition to my:
What Pet Should I Get? Unit

What Pet Should I Get? Paper Bag Puppets
What Pet Should I Get? Cats and Dogs Craftivity
Should be something there for everyone!
You'll have so much fun with this craft! Yes .. that Tea Cup is 3D!
Drop a Tea Bag into the decorated Tea Cup for Mom, Mum, Grandma, Sister, etc. There are 9 templates to choose from. Something for everyone!
Includes 2 components:
1 - Students begin with the Tea Cup Template.
2 Students choose from 9 different Tea Cup / Tea Bag options. They write a message to their loved on the Tea Bag and drop it into the decorated Tea Cup.

As an added touch, I used a single hole punch and added a ribbon to the Tea Bag. I also used light colored cardstock as I just think it looks so much better.
