Help Me Celebrate my Store's Milestone!

This past week has been great for 3L + 1T...I reached a personal milestone that I have been working on for quite some time. To thank all of my loyal customers, I am throwing a 10% Off Sale for all of my products.  The sale goes from March 28th-30th.  Please help me celebrate by picking up some of your wishlist

 

As for more products, I am so sorry I haven't been able to update the blog in almost 2 months! Yikes. I have many great new products that will get to prepared for the end of the school year...and I hate to say it---next school year as well! Hard to believe we're almost ready for another school year.  But for now, enjoy all 110 of my products at a discount.

Again, THANK YOU for all of your purchases, support, and ideas! 3L + 1T would not be here without you!  This milestone is the first of many because when I get 100 more sales I will be throwing ANOTHER sale! Help me reach this second milestone by shopping now with this great discount.

 

Is it Spring Yet?

A big shout out to a fellow blogger, Mrs. Herring's First Grade News, for her wonderful fonts! Check out her super, cute fonts in my newest product.

I have been overly excited to start thinking about spring...flowers, sunshine, light weight clothing, and flip flops! Ah, I am getting a little stir crazy just thinking about it already. So what better way to start thinking about spring than to create some spring related products.

My students always love to have activities that deal with plants and flowers. When teaching plant related items, it is important that students know the parts of a plant. This activity allows students to be "hands on" to reconstruct a plant, label, and even tell the responsibilities of the parts identified.

 Check out this product and many more at my Teachers Pay Teachers store.

Another follow up activity I do with my students is grow our own plants! Sometimes I'll do this around Earth Day so I can use reusable baby food jars to show recycling as well! My students love growing their own plants. I incorporate math (graphing) and reading elements into the lessons as well. I have asked students to compare and contrast plants using Venn Diagrams. I have also asked them to write a compare/contrast paragraph to end the unit.

 

 We also like doing a constant seed collection during the entire unit. Students will bring in all kinds, and I mean...all kinds of seeds to share with the class. We post them to a giant piece of paper to keep up so students can look and explore at the differences between them all.
