Abe Lincoln's Hat
Kindergarten theme activity for unit on Presidents. I began by reading Martha Brenner's 'Abe Lincoln's Hat' and then asked the students what important things they would want to keep in a tall hat like Lincoln's. The students wrote a sentence about what they would keep and drew an illustration on the inside of the image of the hat.

Solar System Travel Brochure and Extension Project
This is a project that was given to my fifth grade students as a culminating activity for our solar system unit. Students had to work in a group of 2 or 3 students and design a travel brochure on the planet of their choice. There is a checklist that was needed to be completed for their project. My students are always asking for extra credit so this also contains an extension project piece along with a certificate for completion.
