New Product Giveaway

I haven’t hosted a giveaway in a long time and what better time than now to introduce a new product!

Kelly Avery from Mrs. Avery’s Island and I decided to collaborate and start developing Science Units. After much thought about what we wanted our units to be called we decided on Simply Southern Science.  We recently uploaded our first set.  It is a unit that covers Density.   Let me tell you, this unit is jammed packed with goodies.  

If I was recommending this unit, I would suggest it for second grade – sixth grade.  I know this is a wide range, but the unit is designed that it could be taught with younger and older kids and adjusted with any rigorous teaching.  We have included experiments such as, The Density Tower, STEM Challenge:  Build a Floating Raft, and a Coke/Diet Coke:  Which will float?.  Any of the experiments could be done as whole class or groups. We even give you our suggestions and weekly lesson plan layout for teaching this unit.

What else does it have besides experiments?  It is packed with vocabulary, a vocabulary foldable, a differentiated activity using the computer, lesson extension ideas, scoot game, assessment, exit tickets, links to learning videos and literature sources, teacher guides, and much more.

We started off with density, because it is a hard topic to understand.  Also, density products are not in abundant amounts.   We both needed something that we could use with our own class.  We are currently working on our second unit and will be adding more soon.

We are sure that you will love this product, we wanted to let two lucky winners have a chance to grab a copy of this product.  Be sure to follow along for freebies and more chances to win!!!  Also, be sure to share with your colleagues and fellow bloggers, so they can have a chance to win too! I will announce the winners, once the giveaway is over.  Mrs. Avery’s Island is also hosting a giveaway with more chances to win this product.  Hop on over to her blog for a chance to Pin it to Win it Giveway!

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek!  Good luck!  I {heart} comments and followers!

This is how many students act in 2026. Teachers will identify with every single one of the students I portray here. Funny teacher video.

So what is this you might ask? It is my last minute version of a craft for Ground Hogโ€™s Day. I canโ€™t be the only one who decides the day of to do a craft and wing it, right? It looks more like a bear๐Ÿคฃbut it was suppose to be a groundhog with facts about Ground Hogโ€™s Day. No directions required just pull construction paper and glue. Youโ€™re welcome!๐Ÿ˜‰ ...

One of my most favorite boards in my classroom is this ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป bulletin board right here! This is how it looks at the beginning of each year. As the year progresses I hang student art work and writings up. At the end of the year I take the work off and it is in order, neat and tidy, and students now have a portfolio of their best 2nd grade work. The bright folders I use to match my classroom theme are cut in half and the sign is just typed up in PowerPoint.

Here is a link to the bright file folders I used on this board (I use the extra folders to keep stuff stored in my filing cabinet): amzn.to/4mS2GhY
