It seems a tad early to be posting something for October; however, the masses have spoken! I completely understand wanting to be prepared for the upcoming school year! It's blistering hot here and I can't even fathom working in my non-airconditioned, windows facing the courtyard, oven of a classroom! The summer has suddenly kicked into high gear and seems to be moving at a very fast pace...I just want it to s.l.o.w. down!
Before I post the actual Poetry Journal portion, I must address a small issue that I am having. Believe me when I say...I LOVE that people are reading my blog and I love sharing things with everyone!! Most of you know that #1-It takes some time and $ to create materials, #2- It takes time to upload everything you want to have on your post, #3- Creating a post that contains a lot of uploaded material is a time consuming process, that being said...any issues that you may have with Scribd, I simply cannot really help with. I can't see your computer, Mac, or laptop to know what the issue is. For those who use Apple products...I know there is some sort of issue, I don't know what it is and you need to take it up with Scribd. I don't mean to sound harsh at all, but I get TONS of emails about issues, and I just don't know how to help. I cannot send all my documents out personally to your email because well, see #1-3 above. I love you all, but I will not be sending out anymore documents that are already uploaded on the blog.
Anywho, the themes for October are the basics: spiders, monsters, pumpkins, Halloween, and fall...inventive aren't we? I have the new version followed by my old ones and a picture of the poster if I remembered to take one :) . As always, I truly appreciate you reading! I hope the rest of July is fabulous for you!
Enjoy!
Shannon

Your poetry journals are great! Thanks for sharing with us.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing these. I love your work and I know my kids will too. I wanted to add that I have a Mac and know what people are talking about when things don't look right after downloading. I have found that using the most current adobe reader helps a lot. There are still some things that don't download right, but now most of them do. So if you are a Mac user having problems try updating your Adobe reader.
ReplyDeleteThank you SOOOOOO much Shannon! Just so you know, I'm definitely using your poetry journals in my classroom this year! You rock! =) And for those who have macs.... they need to download "adobe acrobat reader". (I was having the issue when I would download your wonderful creations, it would come up streaky in areas. It's because the apple version "preview" (i think that's what it's called) messes it all up! It's as simple as that! =) Once I downloaded "adobe", everything looks great!

You are AWESOME Shannon!! I am so looking forward to using your poetry journals with my students next year! I know it must take you a long time to create all of these wonderful things for your students and the fact that you openly share them with everyone is so kind of you! I love your new blog design too, it is super cute!! Thank you so so much!

I loved your ideas about poetry journals! In fact, I love your blog. When I saw the poem Five Little Pumpkins, I thought about the song I had recorded and put on my website, if you would like to use it go to http://www.lindaslearninglinks.com/pumpscare.htm
ReplyDeleteand scroll down to Poems and Songs on the Scarecrows and Pumpkins page. The download is right next to the song title. I plan on putting up a lot of songs on my website asap. My kindergarteners really liked it.
I am a follower!

Shannon, YOU ROCK!! Thank you so much for sharing!! On a side-note, I have a MacBook Pro and have never had a problem. For Mac users that have had problems, if you open pdfs in Preview they usually do not look correct. Try using Adobe Reader...It's a free download from the Adobe site. It works every time!! :)
ReplyDeleteTHanks SO much for these great ideas!
ReplyDeletethanks so much!
