Wahoo! Arctic Freeze, Here We Come!

Ok, so clearly we have lost our minds!  We live in Georgia people!  Absolutely...no...chance...of...ANY...Arctic....Freeze....here!  For the love of Pete, we hardly have any chance of one single darn snowflake!

Don't get us wrong!  We love some sunshine and nice mild weather!  But we do wish we could get at least a little taste of a Northern powdery snowy landscape!  Just once...for maybe a day or two...and then...maybe some more sunshine!  You know we Southerners don't REALLY know what to do when we actually get snow!

Mostly we close schools immediately...SCORE!  But driving...fuh-get about it!  Not gonna happen...at least it ain't gonna be pretty!

So the only ARCTIC FREEZE that we can probably count on 100% will be the one that hits our room this month!  We have done lots of animal units and projects over the years, but now we have prettied it all up and wrapped it with a bow...for all of you guys (and I'm not gonna lie...for us too!).

We just finished up this 90+ page unit full of games, printables, vocabulary cards, writing activities, 6 emergent readers, poems, and tons more.  We are soooo excited!  (Think "little girl with the stuffed animal at the fair" in Despicable Me..."He's sooooo fluffffy!!!!  Too funny!)

So here's a quick sneak peak!

Now... if you are thinking..."Hey.  I maybe like this.  I think I might want to do this.  I think this is the unit for me!"  Well...other than being so AWESOME...we are glad you are still  hanging around!

  So here's a big sneak peak with the 



And if you are still here...dang it...we love you people!  So we think you deserve something FREE!  Here are a couple of goodies from the pack!

Whether you are nice and toasty on a beach somewhere, or snuggled in from the winter cold...
We hope you have an AWESOME week!

  1. Thanks for the great freebies from your unit. I love teaching about arctic animals. I will be teaching penguins, polar bears, and walruses the next three weeks. When I am done teaching those, I would be happy for winter to leave Illinois and Spring magically appear :)

  5. This unit looks fantastic. I put it on the top of my wish list at TPT and became one of your followers. I am always looking for good nonfiction units that support ELL learners. Your vocabulary cards look great. Maria
