TpT's Teacher Appreciation Sale

 

If ever there was a year that teachers deserved some extra love and appreciation, this is it. Every teacher that I know has gone above and beyond what anyone would have ever expected of them.

So this year's Teacher Appreciation Week is in sharp focus. 

If you're a teacher reading this, thank you. Thank you for juggling, adapting, learning (on the go), being flexible, being lenient, being patient, stressing, making it work, chucking what doesn't, and for sacrificing for your students. 

If it were within my power, I'd give you a massive bonus or raise and an extra month off to sleep straight through. 

Since I can't, I figured I would at least share TpT's Teacher Appreciation Sale which starts today and runs through tomorrow. Tons of stores are on sale. Lots of great products. And there are some awesome gift card giveaways happening on Instagram. If you are a Spanish teacher, go and enter to win a $100 gift card to TpT!

If you're a parent, don't forget about my FREE Thank You Writing Pages that your children can use to write their teachers a thank you note. They are in English and Spanish.

TpT's February Sale Ends Tonight

Did you hear? A sale is going on!

The TpT sitewide sale is happening now and my entire shop is discounted. This is a great time to stock up on no-prep printables for Valentine's Day, Black History Month, 100 Days of School, or even Cinco de Mayo!

Valentine's Day is a little over a week away. I have added a new product to my Valentine's line. The Book of Words is a simple way to introduce vocabulary related to the holiday to young children. Simply print the booklet version you need (available in English-only, Spanish-only, and bilingual), then put the pages together and let your kids color the picture, read the word, then write it in the space provided.

Do you celebrate 100 Days of School? Now older students can participate, too, with this new research packet for studying 100 Hispanics in World History. Designed for middle schoolers, this 79-page unit allows students to choose from a list of 100 Hispanics in world history to research and share. The list is available in two formats:

1. The historical figures are arranged by century starting with the 1400s to the present
2. The historical figures are arranged by field of influence, including musicians, artists, activists, scientists, athletes, writers, journalists, actors, leaders & politicians, and other notable figures.

Pages for note-taking, research, and one-page presentations are included, as are additional pages for comparing/contrasting historical figures, word association, and listing new vocabulary.

In addition, date cards and information labels are included for creating a timeline display on a wall.

Instructions are included. And it is available in English and Spanish.

And finally, don't forget that February is Black History Month. This set of one-page reading passages on Afro-Latinos in History is one of my most popular this month. It comes with one-page reading passages about the following seven famous Afro-Latinos:

• Celia Cruz
• Sammy Davis, Jr.
• Soledad O'Brien
• Roberto Clemente
• Martina Arroyo
• Pelé
• Arnaldo Tamayo Méndez

Reading comprehension questions for each reading passage are included. I've also added reading comprehension worksheets that focus on vocabulary from the passages, a matching activity, true or false, describing words, and a Venn diagram for comparing characters. An answer key is included. The reading passages are available in full color or black and white.

But the sale ends tonight! So don't miss it...
