Green and White: Odd Vertical Calendar: Each month is contained in one column. Weekends are highlighted in color, non-days are gray. The calendars have a typeable header. Use them for your school calendar or for an attendance calendar.

HELP

I have added a new How-to Plan page featuring Easy Grammar.

MATH

Correction: Fraction Manipulatives: Typo fixed in manipulatives. All of the printables had to be remade so that they would still be mix-and match. The new ones will not match the old ones.

100-Number Charts 9 new charts. Two charts per sheet. Each chart has a certain amount of random missing numbers.

Love your new *smilie* photo!

Thank you for the green calendar. It made mapping out our required 180 days a breeze. I`ve already put your Easy Gram to good use, too.

I have totally missed the update button on the YoungMinds Cd, so glad you mentioned it!

Sheri I am glad the green calendar is useful to you. I had this wild idea to make a vertical calendar and I used Microsoft Excel to make them.

The sunflower seed picture is funny!

I really like the vertical calendars. I made myself something similar last year, but I like yours better so I will use those instead. smile

You`ve been working so hard!
