It's a bit out of season, but I wanted to get these Crypto-Riddles Holiday sets finished and Halloween was the last holiday I needed. (I intended to get it done for Halloween 2023, but I got the shingles and that took me out for most of Sept/Oct.) This set includes 12 Crypto-Riddles with math facts practice. Your students will enjoy practicing their basic math facts because they get to find out the answer to a silly joke when they are done! I hope they like these puzzles! This final set means that the growing bundle is also now complete! I hope you got in on this bundle while it was reall ..read more

You can choose to print the mini-book version, which prints 2 puzzles on each page, or you can print the full ..read more

I've been working on some mazes with a Spring theme. There will be 26 mazes in the set, one maze for each letter of the alphabet. These were inspired by the clip art from EduClips. I have put two of the mazes in a little PDF that you can download from Google Drive. There are 4 pages. The first two are the mazes for the letters J and K. The last two pages are the answers. You can click on either picture to download a free copy! I am about 40% done with the mazes. I will post again when they are complete with a link for purchasing. My A to Z mazes cost $4 each. You can find others in the m ..read more

Another year has passed and I have read more books! Here is my year in review from Goodreads, if you'd like to take a peek.  Goodreads My Year in Books for 2023 I'm pretty sure it's only of interest to me, but I like to share anyway. You never know when a reader will stop by. And just so you know, I mostly read science fiction or things nearly sci-fi. This year did find me reading a ton of fantasy, but not high fantasy, so I rather enjoyed it! I also reread all the Murderbot books again, even though I just read most of them last December. They are just that good! Also the newest book ..read more
