If you are looking for a vacation destination and want a relaxed setting with great people and beautiful beaches I can't recommend the Sarasota / Venice area enough. Siesta Key is by far my most favorite beach ever. Seriously, book yourself a trip! However, after spending the week having fun in the sun and after reading blogs and posts I'm getting the sense that everyone has summer vacation on the mind. And so I didn't want to wait the 2 weeks until Teacher Appreciation Day to post this, because let's be honest, I appreciate the heck out of y'all everyday. This resource was created to help teachers of all ages and grade levels wrap up the school year in an organized and stress-free manner.

This week in reading our skills were color words as adjectives, and cause and effect. Ms Thomas came up with the idea to use Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes to teach cause and effect. This was perfect for the skill. We started by filling out the sheet below, which you can click on to get your free copy. Afterwards, we used our new c o l o r w o r d s we learned this week (see below) to write our own Pete the Cat Story via Made for First Grade . Then of course we created Petes to go along with their stories.
