We're going to be finishing up learning about rocks, & then starting with plants. Things are getting super busy! We only have 24 days left. . . . end of the year testing has begun, and I'm trying to get everything in. Wow! Only 24 days left! That's exciting . . . and just a little bit scary!
I found a cute little freebie to go along with the book Greedy Apostrophe: A Cautionary Tale by Jan Carr. I actually just ordered it from Amazon after finding the freebie on TpT. Can't wait to read the book to my kiddos! According to the description on Amazon, "It's the moment all the punctuation marks have been eagerly awaiting:
assignment time, There are plenty of open positions for apostrophes as
contractions soon there's only one job left--for a possessive--and only
one apostrophe to fill it: non other than Greedy Apostrophe. It's not
long before his greed gets out of hand, and he jumps into signs where he
doesn't belong." Sounds like a fun book! 
I'm linking up with DeeDee's Peek at My Week Linky. Pop over and check out others' visual plans.
Ooh, I'm going to check out that book now. When I taught apostrophe s I told the kids he was greedy! Now with a book they have to believe me...not just their cooky teacher that gives punctuation and letters personalities. lol

That looks like an awesome book! Thanks for recommending it. Our year is winding down as well and it's going by FAST! I'll be teaching summer school though so it feels like I have another full quarter left :)
