These little pumpkin cookies are the cutest! Here’s a 5 year old Heidi enjoying one. Let the kids make their own! I put everything they need on a plate with a dollop of frosting on a spoon so they can spread it themselves. Make sure to check allergies first! 🍪🎃👩🏽‍🍳

Surprise! 🥳🎉👏We have a new sample freebie of our DECODABLE Readers Theater scripts! ❤️You’ll receive puppets, headbands, labels, and 2 highlighted scripts.

Comment READER for the link to the freebie and to the set of 25 partner plays! We’ve marked the set of 25 down for you and it’s such a steal right now! 🏃🏽‍♀️

I’m convinced that this is the best resource we’ve made together. We spent so long writing 25 scripts so you have 5 that focus on each vowel. Scripts are highlighted so kids know their parts. They naturally want to practice over and over building fluency skills. I can’t wait for your kids to try them!🥰

Y’all! How cute is the K team at our school in their dresses made by the kids? Each student completed a directed drawings of themself on a half sheet of paper. Then the teachers used the light table to trace them in black. The kids colored them in with fabric pens and they transferred them using the iron on transfer instructions. The teachers added them to their dress for the graduation. I’m in love with how these turned out!😍 Comment DRESSES and I’ll send you the links to everything they used!
