Fall Freebie!


 Hope you're having a fabulous fall weekend!  The weather is nothing short of perfect here in Virginia!  I was hoping to have all of my fall activities ready to share today...but it doesn't look as though that is going to happen. 
 
Life is getting in the way. :)
 
I still have grades to enter and lesson plans to do.  My morning was spent at a group obedience class with Sawyer.  He has some...ahem, "issues"...that we are trying to work out. He needs practice being in the same space with other dogs, following commands with distractions, etc. 
 
Andy calls it "group therapy."
 
I call it nerve-wracking.
 
Anyways, we survived another week of that and all three of us are worn out from it.
 
I do have one activity (a fall poem!) that I wanted to share, in case you are able to use it this week.  We are studying the seasonal changes this week and this is one of my favorite activities to do with my kiddos.  It makes a beautiful fall display on our bulletin board when paired with some fall artwork. 
 
I love to read this book:
 
 
before writing our poems, but you certainly don't have to. 
 
Now...if I could just decide what fall art projects I will have time for.  Darn pinterest is giving me too many options!!
 





 
 
By the way....the ADORABLE fonts I used on this poem template are from Rowdy in Room 300. I love them...they are my new favorites.  I just found her blog and it is too cute!
 
So head on over to to download them for FREE.  She actually MADE them using an ipad app.  Can you believe that??
 
 
If you are able to use my freebie, please follow my blog and my TPT store. It means a lot. :)
 
 
Thank you so much for stopping by!
 
Happy teaching to you  (and Happy Fall!)
