WK 3 Free Choice - Busy Teacher's Cafe


The URL for this website is:  http://www.busyteacherscafe.com/

This was a great website if you are in grades K-6.   There are forms created, centers to copy, and strategies for all the subjects.   I found a themes page that gave me tons of information covering all subjects that deal with apples.   I plan to do this in the fall and won't be able to use everything I found here.    What an amazing site and nothing was blocked or asked for money... even better!   

They had a couple of cartoons that dealt with nutrition but what I liked is you could print them out and have the students fill in the speech bubbles and then from that have them create a story.   That would cover reading and writing, but most of all critical thinking skills would have to be used as well.   If you teach elementary, this site is priceless.. check it out!

Oh yeah, and they a calendar for each month with a ton of writing prompts and ideas.   This is part of the example for the month of December.
