TOP FIVE Most popular products from All-American Teacher Tools

By far, the most popular products are my state histories. Each state contains a Part I (early history and state symbols), and Part II (later history and famous people from the state). Additionally, I have bundled the histories with a state project so your students can work independently and then report their findings to the class. There is very little prep on your part! And if you are new to the state where you are teaching, maybe you'll learn a thing or two, too! Search MY STORE for your state.
I have several resources that will help your students to develop ideas for their creative writing - both fiction and nonfiction. I have resources for every age, so your little learners can get some inspiration, as well as your older learners. Some are interactive, others are paper prompts. All will increase creativity. No longer do you need to read about SpaceX over and over! Click HERE for your options.
If your administrator has asked you to include STEM into your traditionally non-STEM curriculum, like Social Studies or Language Arts, this resource is for you. Every day, yes 366 of them, showcases a STEM even that occurred in history. Students are encouraged to answer a related question either during discussion time or in their journals. I have provided answers for you to guide their discussion. THIS LINK is to the entire set. Check my store for individual months - just search for the month that interests you. SEPTEMBER is free so you can see what I mean!
Project-based Learning Units allow the students to learn with a minimum of your preparation. I have your ancient history topics covered - Rome, Egypt, Greece, China, Maya, and the Stone Age in this BUNDLED COLLECTION. Or, you can click on each civilization individually. All projects allow for individual exploration of the topic and include Internet links for your students so they don't waste time looking for the material they need.
Sixth grade math can be difficult to learn and to teach. Sometimes the materials associated with the curriculum can be just as confusing. I made your life easier by creating an easy-to-understand PowerPoint for each topic covered in sixth grade. CLICK HERE to see the complete list.

You can see that this retired teacher has done quite a bit of work to make the lives of those still in the classroom easier. If you have a topic you'd like me to consider, let be know by email or comments below.
