This little bundle includes everything you need for teaching near and far.  The basic objective is that objects nearby appear to be quite large and things far away appear small, but are still the same size.  

Product includes:
* Mini-booklets to read, color, and/or fill in (color or black and white)
* Cut and sort page
* Quiz/worksheet
* Colorful sorting cards with headers

FRIENDLY LETTER ANCHOR CHART

Today, I introduced how to write a friendly letter using an anchor chart, videos, and of course, modeling.  We watched two videos on YouTube that modeled letter writing.

First, we watched Dear Mr. Blueberry, which was a nice introduction....

Next, we watched The Day the Crayons Quit which, if you haven't seen this, is absolutely adorable!  This story is a keeper!! 

I made this anchor chart, which we took to my neighboring teacher's classroom to read.  I wasn't quite sure if she was prepared for us, but the kids found it quite amusing and now want to join me at the Monster Truck show!  Yee haw!

Afterward, I used my friendly letter template to model a letter to another teacher.  
When we were done, I asked my students to write me a letter about anything they wanted and then typed back personalized letters when I got home.  I asked each student to write me back, so we shall see what unfolds!!
