Happy summer! Hopefully, all of you are out of school by now!
So I made this product a loooooooong time ago and it just sat on my hard drive. And sat. And sat. Annnnddd sat. A few months ago I came across it and updated it. And then it sat some more. Then I came across it a few weeks ago and actually used it in my classroom. And then it sat some more. Well, I am proud to announce that I FINALLY posted the product!! :D Here it is:
Now, I originally made this with 4th graders in mind (back in 2012 when I was teaching 4th grade--told you it was old!). The product has evolved since then and I believe that it is now appropriate for 1-5th grade. (I can attest to using it in 1st because I successfully used it with my 1st graders!)

Here is a sample page (see if you can figure them out!):
And here is one of the recording sheets:
Looks like fun, right?! It is! Check out a preview and the product itself in my store:
Have a great Tuesday! :)
