The Teacher's Pet Press has units and center activities that can be ordered. All of the themes integrate skills and learning in diverse content areas. The units contain ready-to-use materials. Standardized test practice and blacklines are also available for each literature book. The units also have components that may be purchased individually or with the complete package. All of the units include a literature guide for the main novel/storybook used. Each theme is based on a balanced approach to literacy.
You will save hours in preparation and planning time. Perhaps you will have more time for a cat nap.
