I'm compiling &lt;strong&gt;free &lt;/strong&gt;activities for you to use in the classroom. This is a new blog, so be sure to check back soon! Some activities will compliment the book &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/BUMBLE-BEAR-Daniel-Learns-Lesson/dp/1419677985/ref=sr_11_1?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;qid=1203279272&amp;amp;sr=11-1"&gt;Bumble Bear: Daniel Bear Learns a Lesson&lt;/a&gt;. Other activities may be seasonal or based upon interest.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Right now, I'm working on a free &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;color:#006600;"&gt;Classroom Job Board&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; for your classroom. I plan to post it for you to print and use in your classroom by July 1st. That way, it will be all ready to go before the students arrive in August. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;My book teaches empathy and good work ethic. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;This job board can be used with or without the book. If you would like a copy of the book, it can be &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/Bumble-Bear-Daniel-Learns-Lesson/dp/1419677985/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;s=books&amp;amp;qid=1217663389&amp;amp;sr=1-3"&gt;ordered here&lt;/a&gt;. This book is ideal for beginning chapter book readers and works well as a chapter book read aloud in a 2nd grade classroom.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope you enjoy this blog. Please let me know what you think. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Check back soon to get your free job board and coloring pages. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;In the meantime, Christian teachers and parents can feel free to print out the free coloring pages I make each month on the "activities" page at My Light Magazine. &lt;a href="http://www.mylightmagazine.com/"&gt;http://www.mylightmagazine.com/&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;I'm the Illustrator Coordinator for the magazine.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1247606854968999398-4183429355891166105?l=carolbrookebooksteachers.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://carolbrookebooksteachers.blogspot.com/feeds/4183429355891166105/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://carolbrookebooksteachers.blogspot.com/2009/01/welcome-teachers.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1247606854968999398/posts/default/4183429355891166105'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1247606854968999398/posts/default/4183429355891166105'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://carolbrookebooksteachers.blogspot.com/2009/01/welcome-teachers.html' title='Welcome Teachers!
