      I am a 2nd grade teacher and I love fractured fairy tales! The stories are cute and kids really enjoy them! It would be a great addition to my classroom library. 🙂 Thank you for all that you do!

    • Catherine Sparks

      In your new podcast, I would love for you to discuss different reading levels and tell why there are so many different ones i.e. Lexile, Fountas and Pinnell, and many other ones.

      Also, I have the Three Ninja Pigs but didn’t realize that there were so many others! What a great addition to a classroom!

      • Amanda Hughes

        Yes, I agree, there are many ways to level books. Which is most accurate? Also, when students know letters and sounds, what is next step? What about students with speech delays? They know their sounds but can not produce them correctly, so do you move them on?

        • Veronica Bartles

          If discussing reading levels, I would request a discussion about how pushing kids to read books “in their levels” can be harmful to their reading progress. So many kids are turned off of the joy of reading because there are no books in their level that hold their interest!

          • Catherine Sparks

            I agree, when they must only read at their level, they are often limited, especially when they must use a classroom library to find their books for self selected reading. I am fortunate that I have a very large classroom library with books from all levels, but I still have some very low readers that do not want to read those lower level books because they want to read what the others are reading. Of course, they cannot read them because they are so low. Very sad for me as a teacher and for them too! I often encourage them to choose a book they like and want to read along with one at their level. This gives them a feeling of empowerment over their choices. I have them look at the pictures in the book they cannot read the actual words, and will often have another read with them to help.

      • Terra Carney

        I teach 4K and would love to know what the next step is for my learners who already know their letters/sounds in their reading development. Please address that in your podcast. Thanks!

        • Amanda Petersen

          I agree! I also have kiddos who already know their letters and sounds. How do I extend their learning while still engaging the preschoolers who need to learn their letters and sounds?
          Thanks!

      • MaFa

        Last spring, a few of my juniors composed fractured fairy tales to teach social justice in our Catholic Social Mission course.

      • Kay Payne

        Would love to have these books for our homeschool. This is the first year for our grandchildren and it’s a tight budget right now. Thank you for doing this sweepstake. Glad I found your website.

        • NIcole W.

          I agree these would be a great addition to our homeschool as well. We have a first grader who loves fairy tales. He loved getting the The Three Ninjas at the library, and comparing it to the traditional three little pigs. Reading levels and how to find what level matches a student, would be a great podcast topic. Having been an elementary teacher I am having a hard time finding a legitimate way to assess this.

    • Sherry

      How can I find fun and easy enrichment activities my kids will actually want to do after being in school all week?

    • Stephanie

      My 6 year old daughter and 3 year old son would love these books! I’m also interested in learning more about your Podcast. Right now our hardest homeschool struggle is teaching my 6 year old how to blend word sounds. Individual sounds are no problem but putting them together is hard for her. I love your resources!!

      Thank you for helping me through our first homeschool year with your awesome website!
      Stephanie

    • Carey Stewart

      These stories are amazing for teaching traditional tales! I would love to have these! As far as the topics… how to develop ❤ of reading with students who struggle to read!

    • sandy

      I teach Title 1 Reading. These books would be fun! A nice addition to compare/contrast with other fairy tales!

    • Susan Emitt

      I would love this set for my school or my personal collection. These are such a great way to teach compare and contrast with a funny twist on some classic tales.

    • Susan

      I have never heard of these books before. I went to Amazon and looked at a few of them. They look really cute!

      • Nicole n Aguilar

        I would love to hear around the different steps of learning to read in order like stepping Stones in their development

    • Terri Ross

      Thank you so much for your generous spirit of sharing your findings and creations. For teachers like you make my life much easier! Your talent is amazing!
      Terri Ross PreK teacher in Ga!

    • Shelbi Fisher

      These books would work great for projects I have coming up with my kindergarteners! They go right along with the theme!

  2. Jessica

    My son would absolutely love these books. And he is just hitting that kindergartener stage. We would love to see some materials on phonics, and better ways to add social history.

    I love your newsletters by the way

    • M L

      I teach k and would love these books to read aloud and compare and contrast with other similar books.

      Also, if you haven’t talked about how to manage all that we have to teach and all of the great materials there are to use when teaching, that would be perfect for me. It’s hard to find the time to prep everything, to teach everything, and not be exhausted everyday. And, I have students who find it hard to stay focused on learning – they argue, need their shoes tied constantly, talking, etc. I spend so much time planning and prepping and it all goes down the drain. If you can’t help with this topic then maybe you know someone who can.

  6. Angel W

    I am not sure where to leave the blog post comment about your podcast and the recommendations for topics. So I am leaving it here. I love to use fine motor skills with my Littles and would love more information on ideas for this.

  7. Erin

    I am currently a pre-service teacher! I am building up my library for my future classroom and would love these books! So many of the classrooms that I have gone to, have these wonderful books. All students that read or are read these books love them!

    • April

      I am a licensed K-6 teacher, currently staying home with my two boys. My son loves to read, and I am excited to check out this series. Thank you for all of the effort you put into your products!

  9. Bethany

    As a pre k teacher I fund my own classroom, these books would be an amazing addition to my library. I would be so grateful ?

  10. Wanda

    I love fractured fairy tale books too. I am a new special education preschool teacher who teaches in a blended regular PreK and special ed inclusion classroom. I would love to here in your podcast how to make a lesson accessible to all level of students in your classroom.

  12. Cathy

    I’ve really enjoyed and used your resources for a number of years, thanks! As I work with 2’s, I would like to see more material for them.

  15. Elisabeth

    I love fractured fairy tales! They are great for comparing and contrasting, character studies, and reader’s theater. I would love to have these in my 5th grade classroom- 5th graders need to read quality fun picture books as well as chapter books.

  20. Teresa Lee Lass

    I’d love to see teaching ideas for students with special needs; also social skills resources & ideas would be very helpful. As a special ed teacher of a combined grades 1 & 2 class, I’m required to teach 30 minutes of social skills daily.
    Thanks,
    Teresa Lass
    Special Ed Shenanigans

  21. Kelly Marshall

    I love these books! And so do my first graders. I’m glad to see another person who loves good books as much as I do ?

  22. Morgan

    I’m a preschool teacher and it would be great to see podcast topics such as fine motor skills, literacy, social emotional skills. It would also be great to get new ideas for centers in my classroom such as blocks, science, dramatic play, music, and manipulatives

  24. Stacy Kaegi

    Oooh….fun books! My students love variations from the original stories! We are currently working on retell and the variations have been fun!

  27. Lynn

    I would like to see a podcast on how to build more content knowledge with DHH and other students. Even fairytales do not get much exposure unless addressed in school around 2nd grade. Hard to understand fractured fairytales when they have never been exposed to the original fairy tales. No home carryover as well. Fairytales get scrutinized as not PC or promoting unkind behavior but there is still a lesson there on how to treat others and consequences of your actions.

  28. Jennifer Lester

    I have not heard of these books. I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to incorporate new stories into my classroom to spark a love of reading in my students.

  29. Heidi

    Excited for these! My 1st grader has made leaps in her reading, and I’m always looking for new books for her to discover! Bonus, she loves reading aloud to her three year old brother, and he loves it too.

  30. Jelissa Bowman

    My kids and I would love to read these! I have a Kindergartner and a preschooler, who absolutely loves books that make them laugh! I also teach preschool to 3-4 year olds, that I feel would enjoy these as well!

  32. Kathe

    These books would be a great addition to any library. It is a great way to introduce children to fractured fairy tales and to encourage them to write their own.

  36. Stephani

    I couldn’t figure out where to post a comment on the blog, but I would love to see creative ideas for teaching high-frequency words. Thanks!

  38. Beatrice Stair

    You are awesome! My students have loved all the activities you have created. They love to retell stories and these books would be great to have in our classroom library!

  43. Michele

    I would love any work where it follows a pattern/schedule so I’m not teaching the directions every time (letter sort/word sort/sight word sort)

    • Cami Ginn

      For the podcast I’d love to hear about how and when to teach/introduce grammar to younger students and how to make it engaging and fun.

  44. Danna Hope

    I absolutely love your emails, your new website, and everything I have ever used of yours. When you start a podcast I would love for you to talk about how to pull groups and still maintain classroom order with the rest of the students.

  45. Jennifer

    I’m a new third grade teacher and I’m looking to add to my folktale collection. These would make a great addition.

  46. Dee

    You’ve helped me in so many ways since I’ve started homeschooling over six years ago! Thank you for all you do!!

  47. Anna

    I would love any advice about getting large quantities of readers for my lowest and highest students as cheaply and in bulk as possible. My school had us send books home for them to practice, but many kids don’t bring them back and don’t reimburse us for the loss. Therefore, my school provided collection has a lot of holes.

  48. Sanky

    As a homeschooling mom, your blog is always a much-needed source of fresh inspiration! Thanks for everything you do!

  50. Sherri

    I saw you were looking at ideas for your podcast. I would love to hear about some behavior management ideas. We are a responsive classroom school which is beginning to not work. Many students are not correcting behaviors after “breaks,” visits to behavior room, or parent contacts. I’ve been told consequences don’t change behaviors ?‍♀️. I’m a seasoned teacher but at a loss with this. I would love to hear strategies being used elsewhere.

  51. Marilyn

    My kids in my class are always checking these books out of the library. It would be fun to have all of them in our classroom.

  53. Deborah Bown

    More materials and tips for teaching phonics and reading. Thank you for what you have shared so far.

  55. Lynn Ivy

    I teach 1st grade. My students would love these books. I would love your podcast to include social emotional learning , growth mindset, and of course more of your fabulous games in all subjects!

  57. Karen Nick Scott

    Thanks for the opportunity to win these books! I’ve used some of them in the past, but I don’t own any!
    I’d like to see more ideas/strategies for comprehension. Thank you!

  58. Thelma

    I teach 3rd grade and love you advice about math and wonderful resources of math and literacy games and worksheets. Thank you! Keep them coming!

  59. Christina D.

    Thank you so much for providing such wonderful resources! I would love to add these books to my classroom library. I am a special education teacher, and these are fabulous for helping kids with comprehension!

  60. Valarie Dillard

    I couldn’t find the blog post so I’m leaving my comment here about K-3 podcast. I would enjoy hearing effective comprehension interventions for kids who struggle with locating answers to questions in a book. I’m looking specifically for Tier 2/Tier 3 interventions.

  61. Melody Andrews

    I would love to know more about supporting a child that is far above his age group in learning. I am teaching my grandson who just turned four on Oct 26 and is already proficient with Kindergarten material. How do I keep him challenged? He will be entering first grade with the secular school system in 2021. We are just NOW proceeding with first grade material at home.

    Melody

  64. Theresa

    Thank you for all the great resources you share with us fellow teachers. Also thank you for the opportunity to win some fun picture books for our students!

  66. Jill

    I would love to hear any insights you may have of lesson ideas to go with any of your favorite titles as well as art projects to go along with them.

  67. Jenny

    My little girl has been begging to learn to read. So I’ve really appreciated your materials for pre-K/k reading and phonics. Would love a podcast about teaching wisdom/engaging kids.

  69. Chelsey

    These books are great! I’ve used them in my pre-K classroom and all the kids always love them. I would love to own a personal copy of the books.

  70. Joanna C

    These fractured fairytales would go great with our fairytale unit!! I’d love to hear how you’d use them and resources to go along with them – I teach 1st grade.

    I would also like to see more resources about social-emotional learning and growth mindset. 🙂

    Thank you for all you do for us!

  71. Jasmyn

    I’m so excited for YOU, Anna! After all this fabulous work you’ve done for us and your family, it’s exciting that you have this little business going!

  72. Vandy E Reppert

    I would love more about writing. I couldn’t figure out how else to post my blog comment about whet I would like to see. Hope this works.

  75. Caren Durrant

    What a fun idea! These would be great books to have students read for my YouTube channel – Young Readers Storytime. This channel is a chance for youth to read books aloud so others can listen. The other great part is there are no ads!

  77. Michelle Wood

    I’d love to hear your strategies for reading comprehension and any suggestions you may have to help my kindergartner and first grader whom struggle with writing. Those are our two biggest challenges.

  78. Beverly Greene

    Fractured fairy tales would be a great addition to my Montessori classroom. We do a lot of real but we know children enjoy laughing. I have read a few but do not have any of my own. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge.

  79. Sarah Ernst

    As a special education teacher in a very low income and diverse area, I am always looking to add to my library beyond the basic readers. My students would enjoy these tremendously as they don’t get read to on a regular basis at home. Thank you for the recommended titles!

  80. Courtney Lee

    I would love a PodCast about different books to read with students that are into Superheros. I have two little boys who LOVE superheroes and I they love to be read to! I would love to combine the two loves!

  81. Julie Mullins

    I haven’t read fractured fairytales since the Jon Scieszka ones. I will have to check these new ones out!

  82. Erin Pruente

    I would like some ideas on how to teach third graders who have no phonic skills pasted CVC words

  83. Brooke

    I love fractured fairy tales! They’re great for story time.
    Providing lists of good picture books for each grade (preK-3) would be awesome. ☺️

  84. Cortney Calaway

    I would love a podcast about how to manage time homeschooling all my kids when they are still young and not independent learners yet. I have to sit by each of them and by the time I’ve gotten through every subject, it’s taken us forever.

    • Leah

      I would love to hear on the podcast more about waiting until 7 to teach reading. I would love more insight from others about this.

  88. Andrea

    Podcast topic: I would like to hear about literacy centers and stations, especially if they’re differentiated.

  90. Kirsten Jackson

    For the podcast, I’d love to hear more about how to homeschool the reluctant child, or ways to make math more right-brained for the creative kids. 🙂

  91. Tiffany

    I’m new to your helps and love them! I teach a blended group of k-2nd grade and you have helped make learning so much fun!

  92. Debra

    Your blog is full of wonderful ideas! I can always find something to use in my kindergarten classroom! Thank you!

  93. Crystal

    Hi! For a podcast idea I’d like to hear different ways to get preschoolers to learn the alphabet and writing it in a fun meaningful way.

  94. Gwen

    I teach PreK and my children would love them. Money is limited, so I have to purchase everything myself. My classroom doesn’t have many books. What I have has been given to my by another teacher. These would be a great addition to our books.

  97. Allison

    I remember watching silly fractured Fairy Tales on TV as a kid. These books would be a perfect addition to my classroom “Special Book” library!

  98. Sara K

    Such a great giveaway!
    I’d love to hear more about tried and true research based interventions for all levels of math.

  99. Jamie McDaniel

    As always you amaze! Thank you for excellent materials, great advice, and fun (if fractured) giveaways!

  101. Jen

    We haven’t read any of her books, but are now very curious to try them. It sounds like my three would love them!

    For your podcast, I’d love tips for transitioning from public to homeschool, tips for how you handle record keeping/grading and testing. Also how to improve effectiveness or balancing time between multiple ages/levels of curriculum, especially with a reluctant middle child.

  103. Jen

    I would love to add these to our homeschool library. My 1st & pre-k kids would love them!!! Thank you for all you provide for us your site is an amazing resource!

  106. Tamara

    We compare fairy tales and fractured fairy tales, so these books would be a wonderful addition for my 2nd grade classroom!

  107. April

    I would like some helps on getting students to write properly. Fun activities on letter formation to help write legibly.

  109. Hannah

    These would be so much fun for my kinder kids! We do opinion writing and fractured fairy tales in the spring. I’d love to use these books!

  110. Marisa

    These books are amazing! I am familiar with a few of them. I would love to use them in my fairy tales unit in 2nd grade!

  111. Jen Jones

    I am always looking for good books to boost my students’ comprehension!!! I love the illustrations in these, it makes it easier for my students to draw/write in their comprehension journals when the illustrations are this detailed and vivid!

  112. Kristina Gorokhova

    I love grade 1 unit on fairy tales and always try to find different variation of the familiar fairy tales!

  113. Sharon Sandahl

    I love reading your postings on FB, and have shared many ideas with my daughter who is teaching 1st gr this year. I have several grandchildren, and use your ideas with them when I am able. Thanks for all your work.

  114. Robin

    I teach Special Education at Bergman Elementary, grades K-4. I just love the fractured fairy tales, and have used them to do story comparisons. They are a great tool and they give students a chance to explore different points of view.

  115. Miranda Sikorski

    Last year was my first year and I really struggled with teaching fairytales. These would have been so helpful to have and I bet my kinders would have loved them! I guess I’ll have to start hunting for them for this year.

    Also, Podcasts are great but I haven’t found very many good ones that relate to the younger grades. So I am excited to hear yours! Talk about anything- lessons, behavior, parents, etc. I’ll be listening!

  116. Jill McKenzie

    I would love to hear on the podcast how the books to reference social emotional skills and what questions could be asked to students

  117. Jill Potter

    I have 6 and 8 yr old sons. We read together every day, and night. Thank you for this opportunity. I’d love to see activities that go along with books.

  122. Anna

    Hi! I love your site and frequently use the resources for my kindergarten students. We usually do a fairy tale unit and these books would be a lovely addition to our study. I would love to hear a podcast on station activities and how to get them rolling. Thanks so much for all you do!

  123. laura

    i want to talk about simple things kids can be doing while you are working with those small groups. i have bought several things from TPT to organize ‘me’ but none have been the right fit.
    i never feel quite ready for small groups…and what to do when you have ‘those years/those kids’ that no matter what you do WILL NOT stay on task or be quiet during small groups.

  125. patricia martinez

    We love using your printables in our homeschool, thank you! We also absolutely LOVE books, and I’m always looking for creative ways to teach phonics and spelling (social studies and science, as well)! 🙂

  126. Lisa Dehaine

    I teach 2nd and 3rd grades. My children would love these books. I’ve been looking for good books for our literature circles.

  127. Molly

    Love your website and appreciate the resources you make available.

    I want to see a podcast on helping students recognize sight words in context.

  148. Kunthea Jairam

    These books look so fun to read! The titles are so funny and just make you want to see what the twist to the fairy tale is.

  151. Amanda

    Hey, for the podcast you’ll be starting, I’d like more ideas about how to keep math more hands on and engaging for a kid who absolutely struggles to sit still and do a work sheet. 😉 Also, your alphabet movement cards have been a magical thing in the life of my three year old! She’s never found the alphabet more fun and interesting until I discovered those and now she’s learning all her letters like never before! I love it!

  154. Starlene Shoemaker

    Fractured Fairy Tales are a wonderful way to stretch children’s thinking and perspectives on literature. Thanks for the amazing materials that help us to teach our littles in fun ways.

  155. Joanna Kohlbus

    Classroom management, differentiation, and engaging circle times would be votes for the podcast!

  161. Shayna

    Tips for encouraging parents to work at home on the same skills I’m teaching in the classroom. Love being able to send them to the website for more resources and ideas!

  162. Meg Evans

    In your new podcast I would love for you to continue to explain and discuss how Orton-Gillingham trained teachers and tutors need to continue to learn and refine their practice based on current research, and occasional hints (links) on how to do that.

  163. Eloise Jackson

    I use your material for my 2nd grade small groups and whole group instruction and it’s a huge resource. This is my third year teaching and I haven’t build my library yet, the books would be a great addition. Thank you for all you do! 🙂

  164. Cindy L.

    I’d love to hear more about best teaching practices, DAP, and scope & sequence for math and literacy.

  166. Mata Dennis

    I want to second Catherine Sparks. Why are there so many different levels and how do we talk with parents that don’t understand the levels to help them choose books more appropriately.

  167. Heather

    I would love to hear more about writing skills, ideas for fun prompts, activities to engage young writers.

  168. Tiffany

    For your podcast, I would love to hear your thoughts on guided reading groups vs reading conferences. Right now I am trying to find a balance of doing both, but am running out of time to do each justice. One of my coworkers switched to strictly reading conferences with first graders and I am not sure how I feel about it. I’d love to know your thoughts.

  170. Wendy

    I am a seasoned teacher, but this is my first time teaching a combo class. I have second and third graders this year. I would love for you to have a podcast on how to manage a combo class.

  173. Colette Pluta

    My K-1 special ed. kiddos would love these books!! It is so wonderful to see how excited they get about books!! Would love to add these to our class library! For your podcast I would love to see topics specifically related to special needs students, the importance of phonological awareness, the need for explicit instruction, fun fine motor activities and social skills.

  174. Nicole M Kampwirth

    In your new blog post, I would love ideas on small groups, both for math and literacy! I’m tying to bring new ideas in the classroom.

  179. Gwendolyn Long

    I would love the free books, I have 10 grandchildren and am a preschool teacher so I buy tons and tons of books. A few free sure would be nice! Thanks! 🙂

  182. Amy

    I love your preschool activities! My 3 kids work on them daily. A unit on civic duty and citizenship in small communities would be awesome!

  183. Christina

    Thanks for the giveaway! I’m always on the lookout for books to add to our library!

    Regarding the podcast, I agree with another commenter — I would be interested in information on the different reading levels.

  184. Gini Sellers

    I would love for your podcast to cover classroom management techniques and well as maybe fun outdoor explorations to do with kiddos? I also would LOVE those books. One of my favorite things in this whole wide world is hearing my kids giggles from silly books I read them. These would be perfect for bringing out those giggles 🙂

    I’d like to know what you feel are the most beneficial hands on math activities for 2nd graders. Although I know the importance of activities, I also have a lot of material to cover before the end of the year. I am looking for the best balance.

    Any suggestions for 2nd graders struggling with signs of dyslexia would be a helpful topic too.

  211. Esther Tiet

    We have only read 2 of the five books and my kids read them over and over! This would be amazing in our home library! Thank you for holding this giveaway!

  212. Julia M.

    I’m new to podcasts, but would love to know more about dyslexia and how we are discovering it is so much more than just reading letters backwards.

  232. Mercedes

    I have a three year old daughter who would absolutely love these books! My daughter loves books! She loves for me to read to her at night. We are currently reading fairy tales (what a coincidence?) but I have yet to introduce her to fractured fairy tales. These books would be a great resource. It would mean the world to us if we received them. Thank you very much. ❤️

  233. Kerstin

    I really enjoy all your posts and appreciate all you do to help out fellow teachers–it is greatly appreciated!!

  247. SpecialSuz

    I would love to hear ideas about fitting it all in; reading, writing, math, phonics, guided reading, assessments plus specials. Every new program sounds wonderful, but it’s becoming overwhelming.

  248. Constance Walker

    These books would be great to a compare and contrast with as well as venn diagram. I would like to hear more about teaching basic skills to struggling/reluctant readers and also how to l teach main idea and details in the most engaging way.

    Thank you!
    Julie Erlandsen

  253. Marcy M

  262. Kim McD

    What books are you using as mentor texts different units of studies in all literacy and content areas.

  263. Lisa

    Love using fractured fairy tale mentor texts for my students. They have so much fun fracturing their own and then publishing on Puppet Pals!

  264. kayla Clark

    I think you should share about how to look for the good in teaching rather than the bad all of the time. I have taught for 34 years and I get asked all of the time “How do you do it?” Really I don’t feel like it has been that long yet when I see students who are now parents of the students I once taught it makes me know that I am lucky they grow old and I don’t.
    I have had good years and I have had years that I have wanted to retire every single day. It is the thinking of the good things that you have happen like the “Teacher—I love you” and the small treats that they just have to give you teacher.

  267. Shauntrell Leaks

    Thanks for the opportunity, I would love to share these books with my students. We don’t have any of them yet.

  268. ANNE PATTERSON

    Thank you! My Kinders just finished a unit studying the traditional fairy tales! 🙂

    Creative writing?

  269. Alicia B.

    In your new podcast I would love for you to discuss how mom’s that do not have the means to homeschool can work with teachers to create a more engaging and personalized learning experience.

  270. Hyemin

    I would love to know how to move forward learners who already know their letters/sounds in their reading development. Thank you!

  272. Jen Mojica

    I would love these books for my 4th grade special education students! For the new podcast, how to differentiate starting from the early years would be a helpful topic!

  273. Julie Elkins

    I am always looking for books for both my classroom library and for my lesson resources. Our 3rd grade does a lot with fairy tales. So, I would love to have these available for my kiddos, too.

  275. Pamela Forbes

    In your new podcast, I would like to hear more about inquiry teaching. I am a new PYP teacher and I am having trouble finding more inquiry based teaching activities for my students. They are English learners and most of them come to me with almost no English so I have a difficult time finding activities that teach them the required English and is on their intellectual level.

    I have a son in 3rd grade who is a wonderful reader, he reads all the time and loves books (especially like the Redwall series by Brian Jaques) but he’s a horrible speller. Nothing I try seems to help him with spelling. I’d love ideas for how to encourage him to become a better speller. Thanks!

  281. Amaris

    Please discuss reading instruction – bonus if tips include how-tos in bilingual household. Thanks!

  283. Tanya Taylor

    It took a lot of scrolling to get here. I just finished reading two of these stories with my 2nd graders. I don’t have my own copies, a coworker scanned the books onto PDF files. I uploaded the files to my Google Classroom and we read them on the Chromebooks together. It would be just awesome to have this collection.

  284. Bonnie

    Special education teacher. Most reading comprehension stories are very difficult for my students to read. I need easier text that’s not babyish for third graders.

  286. Rebecca Coloma

    I just started homeschooling my 5 year old and I know he would love these! He’s all into super heroes and ninjas and enjoys a good book!

  289. Kristen

    These look like such fun books! I would love to hear ideas on how you homeschool a 4-5 year old with younger siblings at home as well.

  291. Tiffany

    I am a second year teacher. These books would be a great addition to my classroom library and would fit in with my standards nicely.

  294. Karyn Dimeglio

    I am a Special Education Teacher and work with autistic children. These books would be great for my students!

  295. Rebecca Dula

    I would love to hear the best way to integrate reading with other core subjects like science and math.

  298. Tina McCurry

    I am a grandmother raising 4 grandchildren, ages 12, 8, 6 and 4, that the court has placed with my husband and me. I glean everything I can from your emails, they have been so helpful to me with my 6 year old who has great difficulty just learning her ABCs and 123s. I recently printed and laminated the blending words that you created! I am excited to introduce this to her this week. I am always going to the library to try to find books that they will enjoy reading. What a blessing it would be to be able to be the winner of this collection! Thank you for this opportunity to enter this drawing!

  299. Jennifer Holderman

    In the future I would love to see activities that focus on the developmental sequence of learning regarding phonemic awareness and phonics skills.

  302. Valynn Carter

    I teach preschool! My students would love these stories! It’s fun to compare stories that are the same but different.

  303. Emily Sargeant

    In your blog, I’d love to know your thoughts on whole language/phonics based instruction and your research to support your thoughts.

  304. Shannon Morlin

    I teach Kinder and would love to hear more about behavior management beginning reader help and science/social study instruction! Thanks!

  307. Shannon Malone

    I would love to hear if you know anything about effective TIER 2 research based interventions

  308. Elizabeth Rosatti

    I am teaching kindergarten this year after many years of teaching upper grades. Each and every single email has had a tip that has helped me. I actually need these books. Thank you!

  309. Amanda

    I always love reading fractured fairy tales with my kindergarten students. Some of these I have not seen before.

  310. Elise McHugh

    I would like to know more about how to differentiate for English Language Learners. Thank you for all of your wonderful resources!

  312. Kelly

    I would like some lessons to teach parents how to help their children learn to read…how to help struggling readers and early readers.

  314. Rey

    I teach at a private kinder in Korea, and they just put kids in any class regardless of level after the second semester. It’s hard to find things for these children to do when the other children are so ahead. I need differentiation strategies.

  315. Erina

    I would love an article focuses on the progression of phonemic awareness schools and some games to address practicing these skills (rhyming, alliteration, syllable manipulation, etc.).

    Thanks!

  316. Jenna

    I oversee Kindergarten-3rd grade curriculum for a private school. Your resources have been such a blessing. So excited for Teaching Every Writer, and I’m sure your podcast will be great as well! These books look fantastic! I can’t wait to check them out. 🙂

  317. Alyssa Sullivan

    Ideas on how to work on reading comprehension, maybe the use of adaptive books, and manipulative activities for “center time”. Thank you so much for your freebies and resources.

  318. Ashley Flinn

    These would make a great addition to my classroom library! Thanks for providing great materials.

  320. Kim

    What a F U N giveaway! Love your products and enjoy receiving your emails with such helpful resources. It’s like having another teacher to collaborate with! These books would make a great addition to my elementary special education classroom. It would be fun to compare/contrast the fractured tales to the originals. What a great way to incorporate rhyming as so many of my learners struggle with this skill. Thanks for all of the wonderful resources and ideas you share with all of us!

  325. Beth

    I’m looking forward to your podcast! I’d be interested in hearing more about different ways to help students learn letter sounds and blending sounds into words so I can help students who need extra practice or different ways to learn.

  326. Melissa

    I love these modified fairy tales. They are such a fun way to teach author view point, variations, and so much more.

  327. Carman Hernandez

    I would love to use these words to teach my students about different kinds of language, fairy tales, etc. I work with English language learners and kids with special needs.

  329. Robin Strunk

    I would love to hear more about planning and how to fun an effective program on a very low budget!!

  331. Liz

    I would love a set of these wacky tales to engage students in collaborative conversations. The more focused conversations we have the more language production is occurring. We need these to form a strong foundation for reading. Theses books will surely be a hit and leave plenty of topics for conversation starters.

  332. Volha

    Hello Anna,

    As a new teacher, I found your resources extremely beneficial. I still struggle with having my students work independently during small groups in Pre-k.

  333. Rachelle Pollard

    I would love to hear about what role fluency plays in the lower grades. I’m conflicted about this subject.

  335. Laura

    In your new podcasts, I would love for you to address how to better meet the needs of our English Learners. English Learners are a growing population and a lot of what we use for our English speaking students are not effective for our English Learners. In other words… What are some ways we can adjust the materials so these students have a better chance of success? Secondly, I would love to hear about more culturally inclusive books that can be used in the classroom for instruction, etc.

    On a side note… these books would be a welcome addition to my classroom library! They could be used in so many different ways as an instructional tool! Thank you for the opportunity to be able to win them!

  337. Natalie

    I am an ABA therapist and know my kiddos would love these books. They look like they are packed with adventure and lots of fun!

  339. Kammy

    I love these resources and use many of them for my title 1 groups to support the reading skills of the students.

  340. Susan Glodt

    These books would be so fun in my Kindergarten classroom! The kiddos would love them 🙂 I would love to hear more about letters and sounding things out for kids that have speech problems.

  342. Katherine

    I teach pre k and would love to get more ideas how to make learning letters and sounds more fun.

  345. Gwen

    I teach kindergarten but for your podcast I would love to see how to make learning the ABC’s fun for my struggling students. Thank you for all that you do!

  347. Laura

    I used to teach a fractured fairy tales unit when I taught first grade. It is so fun comparing and contrasting these stories. One of my favorites was The Stinky Cheese Man.

  348. Corinne

    Fractured fairy tales lend themselves to so great lessons. These books are great for compare/contrast and point of view.

  350. Trease

    Thank you so much for all of your resources! I am an elementary math coach and I use them all the time!

  351. Amy

    Thanks for all the great info. I love your ideas for teaching writing. I have used several of them in my classroom to enhance the curriculum that I use.

  353. Jessica

    I would love some tips for teaching 2 different aged children together. Next year I will have a first grader who we red-shirted, so he will be 7 and a 5.5 year old kindergartner. I am really worried about teaching both of them at the same time without spending the entire day homeschooling.

  354. Laura

    I would love these books for my reading students. The rhyming aspect is perfect for making language fun. The illustrations are wonderful too.

  357. Vi Figueroa

    My students love the ones we’ve read. Would be so excited to have the whole set for school, as the ones we use are always on loan from my toddler.

  358. Rachelle

    In your future podcast on grades Pre-K-3, I would love to hear about classroom management, working with students who struggle with behavior, and language interventions that are appropriate for each grade. I am excited for this giveaway and would love to win these books for my speech students!

  359. Amy

    I have so many students who would benefit from these books! Some will be able to read them independently and discuss them, work on comprehension, and more. Others will be able to listen to me read them and enjoy the humor, practice rhyming skills, and share their predictions as we go along.

  361. Rachel

    These books sound so cute, love having books around the house so I can read to my little one or my oldest can read on his own. The topic I’d love to hear more about is the lexile score for kids, or what are good books for different age groups.

  362. Jackie owe

    I would love a talk on staying on task ? sometimes that is that hardest for us
    Your website rocks

  363. Tim

    As a new teacher I LOVE your website. The resources are amazing. Currently I am trying to build my classroom library so these book would be awesome additions. Thanks for all you do!

  364. Faith Morrow

    For your podcast, I would like more ideas on fostering early numeracy skills, moving kids from counting to thinking additively to thinking multiplicatively, and ideas for number talks.

  365. Lydia

    I would love to hear ways to incorporate learning into everyday life (when getting dressed, eating, shopping, at the park, helping with work around the house, etc)

  367. Lia

    Great resources and a great giveaway! I look forward to your podcast and would be interested to hear about how to keep up with kids who are reading ahead of their age group so the books for their reading level are not always appropriate with their content.

  368. Iliana DeRemer

    Thank you for your wonderful blog and resources! I really like your materials!! For the new year, I would like to see more math / literacy integrated activities that I could use with my English Language Learners. Thanks again…

  372. Michelle

    My students have really enjoyed the reading games that I have printed from your website. Thanks for sharing!!

  373. Heather Parker

    Not an educator, but as a mom, I would love to hear how to better encourage my younger elementary kid in his class work.

  374. Annie

    I love reading your posts about the process of reading. I would love to read and learn more about this at a more preschool (3-4 year old) level.

  375. jackie

    Once again, its cool to see how many other teachers and parents use your materials and ideas. Thank you for such quality work.

  376. Season Stark

    I’m 38 (yikes!) and am in the process of becoming a teacher. I would love these for my classroom library.

  379. Mandy

    I’m currently homeschooling my 2 year old and my 2nd grader is doing a book drive for her classroom library and she’d love to share these books.

  380. Monica

    Thanks for all you do! I would like to hear about how to integrate reading and literacy into other subjects (science, social studies, art, music, etc.).

  381. Holly Hughes

    We are a homeschool family with a first grader and a pre-k student. It would interesting to hear ideas on hands on lessons that can be use for both grades so they can do the same activity just at their ability level. We have tons of seat work but we like hands on manipulative lessons.

  382. Johanna Speizer

    I love these books as well. As far as what I would like for the podcast is tips and tricks for how to keep pre k kids engaged during homeschooling instead of wanting to gravitate towards technology.

  383. Shakeeta W

    For the podcast, I would love to hear about ways to make reading fun for the reluctant reader. Also, the easiest ways to combine lessons for multiple grade levels.

  384. Michelle

    I am in my first year homeschooling, and I know my kiddos would love these! If we don’t win, I’m definitely going to request that our library get these books- they look fantastic!

  385. Holly

    I’m a homeschooling mama of 4 boys and I’m really excited to find out more about these books. They look so fun!!

  386. Julia Simmons

    I would love these fractured fairy tales. They will allow for a high level of engagement as well as an awesome resource for teaching comparison.

  387. Emma Wright

    I don’t really listen to podcasts, so not sure I would tune in (sorry!) I don’t have time (make time) to listen. However, I struggle with class management at this level and how to help my lower level students catch up to my higher level students. My context is a little different from the typical though, because I teach second language learners in their native home. I have small class sizes of 3-10 students, but still struggle with the disparity of levels. (Example: I have 2 grade 2 students who still struggle with letter sounds still and 1 student who knows most of the sight words I give them, and can sound out all the CVC words easily.)

  389. Tami O'Keefe

    I love your site! The books you’re giving away are an awesome resource to add to my 1st grade classroom.

  391. Sarah Denk-Davis

    I can’t wait for your Podcast! I am trying to be organized and intentional with our daughter’s education now that she is a bit older (5) , so anything that can help me with that. 🙂

  394. Jessica Chappell

    I look forward to your podcast. I would love to
    Know how to pique a child’s interest in reading a different author or series. My son who is 9 loves a certain series but after he reads all that there is then he is difficult to get to try something else. I also would love to learn strategies to help our children socially.

  395. Elise

    On your podcast, I’d be interested in hearing about how to get kids interested in reading non-fiction books. Thanks for putting together this giveaway!

  396. Nita Andrew

    I absolutely love different versions of classic tales. I have only heard of one of these, I’m going to check all of these out. Would love to win my own set! 5 boys at home and a classroom full of excited minds!

  397. Mary

    Any tips on encouraging free play, building imagination, and reading would be great topics for your podcast.

  401. Jessica Fairburn

    Thanks for giving us all a chance to win these awesome books! I am a teacher, turned homeschooler. On your podcast, it would be helpful if you could address ways to include younger siblings in homeschooling. I have made busy boxes/bags galore, but my toddler just wants to make as much noise as humanly possible to get attention. If I could find more “hands-on” ways to include him in what we’re doing, maybe we could get some decent reading instruction accomplished. We already do our read-alouds together; maybe the key is themed, developmentally-appropriate activities? But realistically, I have limited time to prepare extra materials. Any ideas?

    Best of luck in your upcoming podcast!

    My whole family loves these fractured fairy tales! I featured The Three Ninja Pigs on my blog and we just checked out Twinderella this week! We would love to add these to our home library.

  403. Michelle R.

    Makerspace/STEAM projects that tie in with picture books would be a great topic for your podcast!

  405. Jill Hettinger

    These fractured fairy tales would be put to great use in our PBL school! There is some many things you can do with a fairy tale theme in the primary grades from engineering design to literature studies & plays.

  406. Sara L

    I think it would be great for you to discuss ways to change things up on those “off” days… Like brain breaks, ways to motivate kids, ways to adjust/alter teaching/learning tasks to adapt to student needs, etc.

    Thanks for all you do!

  407. Phyllis

    I am a homeschool mom. (2nd -3rd grade) Reading, spelling and writing are our daily struggles. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

  408. Sheree

    I would love for your podcast to include ideas on how to get a student back on track when they have fallen behind.

  409. Margaret

    In your new Podcast, I’d love for you to focus on the topic of Read Alouds. Specifically, I’d like to know the process you use for matching a Read Aloud to a learner. My learners are 3 & 6-year old boys.

  410. Jessica

    I home school. Would love pod casts about managing time when teaching more than 1 level and what types of s activities can be completed together.
    Thanks!

  411. Alison Harris

    A topic for your podcast that I would be interested in is how you organize your learning space and centers.

    Thanks!

  412. Ms. Soto

    I would to hear on the podcast about guided reading. How to create centers and have kiddos be independent in these centers.

  413. Nikki Klabunde

    I have been following you for years and now my daughter is reading at 3 years old! She loves your lessons! Thank you!!

  414. Kelly Lynn

    I’d love to hear about teaching kids according to their developmental stage and not by “standards”. As a mom, I feel pressured to keep my kids on track but I also know they have their own strengths. Hearing how kids develop differently but ultimately “Catch up” in the end would be awesome!

  416. Nikki Klabunde

    I would love to hear about your process for handling all the paperwork that goes along with homeschooling. How you keep it organized, how you keep track of the lessons to come, what has been done, etc. Look forward to the podcast!!

  417. Anna Gregory

    Hi Anna! I would love to hear what you would recommend for activities/lessons for my anxious 8 year old and my 4 year old who is resisting to learn.

  421. Brandi

    I love all your resources! I have six year old twins who learned to read at four using your sight-word books. And now I am working on letter and sound recognition with my four year old little boy who has special needs. He particularly loves the dot art letter printables.

  422. Tara

    Great books!!! I would love to hear you talk more about activities and lessons for teaching nursery rhymes.

  424. Rhonda Jackson

    Thank you for this opportunity. I would like to see in the podcast differentiated social skills lessons. It would also be nice to see implementation of guided reading groups and activities.

  428. Amy

    I would love to hear about ideas to teach sight words to struggling readers. Using flash cards is difficult for my low readers. Fun, engaging activities would be great!! I love all of your ideas!

  432. Mara

    I have a 3 year old daughter and never been to any school. but with your article and printable, she already knows her alphabets perfectly, know numbers 1-20, shapes, and some sight words. you helped me teaching her and to be ready her for school.

  434. Chantei

    Thank you for doing this!

    I would love for your podcast to cover the topics of social emotional learning (SEL) integration into the curriculum vs SEL as a curriculum, as well as screen time: YouTube vs Abcmouse.com, and any advice on supporting the rising number of special education students!

  435. Joanne Kushman

    I would love to have this set of books for my K/1 split classroom. I know my littles would really enjoy them!

    • Joanne Kushman

      As far as the pod cast, I would love any help/ideas about how to teach multiple grades. Sometimes I feel like I’m drowning and can’t keep up.

  436. Ann

    My kindergarten class would love all these books, We have read other fairy tales from different viewpoints. The class loved it and wanted to read more. So happy they want more than just the basal reader.

  439. Amy

    My Kindergarten class would love to have these books! In your podcast I would love to discuss how to teach writing, maybe in mini lessons.

  440. Sara Lindeman

    These books look great for my little lady who loves to read! I’d love more information on how to structure the year/progression of information being taught.

  441. Alena

    Would love advice on how to organize preschool learning tools at home and introducing math to 3-5 year old range (and advice on which math skills to introduce first)!

  444. Jennifer McCaskill

    I would love to know ways to engage early readers and make it fun. I love all of your game suggestions!

  445. Kathy Pender

    I teach fairy tales to my 3’s every year. It’s a perfect theme to use in the summer and these books would be so much fun to use! I love learning games. For my age group, emphasis on strengthening small motor skills is very important, so any new ideas I can implement in this area would be great! ?

  446. Audra Ratkiewicz

    I have noticed kids don’t know classic fairytales or nursery rhymes. I’d love engaging ideas to share these stories with my students!!

  450. Brittnie

    I have two pre-k kids that I homeschool. It’s hard to find resources to work with this age which is why I love The Measured Mom. We use the math and letter of the week.

    I also teach a half day kindergarten class that benefits from the resources during intervention.

    Both my own kids and my students would love listening to these fun stories. They great for compare and contrast with my kinder kids.

  451. Judy

    I travel across the state, visiting and helping teachers by giving them new strategies, I would love to model for them how they can use books like these to teach many Standards. We don’t read aloud as much as we should. I’d love to show them how engaging books can be for their students.

  454. Andrea

    I’m an elementary education major and I have been looking for ways to begin collecting books for my classroom library! I also tutor several children and they always love any new books I bring to share with them. These books I would love to one day have in the classroom and would love to share with the children I tutor, and in the class when I am mini and student teaching

  456. Karlee

    I teach special education and these books would be wonderful for the students learning different types of stories!

  458. Renee Moniz

    I teach special education and my students would love these books! I’d also share them in the regular classes I go into for reading!

  460. DANETTE

    Would love to add these to our resource book room for all of the teachers in our school to access.
    Liberty Early Education (all of the preschool and kindergarten students in our district are housed in this building.)

  461. Julie

    I would love for you to do a podcast about 1st graders that don’t know most of their ABCs and how to get them learned so we can begin reading stories.

  462. Kelli

    Thank you for all thatvypu do and share!! I have used your tools and resources for all three of my children and I refer other parents/guardians and teachers to your site all the time!!

    I’m sure your podcast will be great. I think one topic that would be helpful to a lot of people is how you organize your space(s) such as your classroom, desk, etc. and your materials (digital files, papers, books, etc).

    Thanks again!

  463. Debra

    Fractured fairytales are so much fun! Sadly many parents don’t read classic fairytales to their children 🙁 so many of them come to my kindergarten class not knowing them!

  465. Stephani Brooks

    I want to use Ninja Pigs to compare characters in different texts. The kids will love this!!

  466. Katie Stauffer

    I would love to hear about first week of school trust building activities for kindergarten.
    Also, activities to fill the day during those special days like Halloween, Christmas party day, valentines party day. Those days I can’t really teach curriculum because the kids are just so hyped up.

  473. Beth

    I would love to see simple ways to focus on academic language for younger learners. How can we get them to start incorporating Tier 2 words in a fun and systematic way?

  474. Sol Acuna

    Hi Anna,
    I wanted to thank you very much for your monthly packets. They are wonderful and a life saver. I teach Pre-K and with them I cover two centers activities that I can change daily.
    I don’t know how you get the time, but all the activities keep children engaged in a fun way to learn.
    Anna, something that really worries me is that since the school districts around USA are integrating Pre-K for 3 and 4 year old children, appropriate practices are not being followed. I see teachers stressing academic topics no leaving time for the sand/water play, open art and gross motor development activities. Hopefully, practices will change for a healthier learning environment of our young children.

    Thank you very much Anna and have a wonderful Sunday

  475. Erica

    I would love to hear a podcast on helping my students be able to blend sounds together. I have students that really struggle with it. I would also love to hear your take on students who can’t read sight words in isolation but cannot read them within a sentence. Thank you!

  476. Kiara

    For your new podcast, I would love to hear a segment for new teachers! PBL is another topic that can be very beneficial.

  477. Matlene

    I’m an OT & students live to compare & contrast with the “real stories”. I can also get drawings & writings too!

  478. Sonja

    THANK YOU for ALL you do and make available to us! I LIVE your tools, games and activities! I use them in my classroom on a DAILY basis! ❤️❤️❤️

  479. Rebecca

    Can’t wait for your podcast! Would love to hear suggestions about using mentor texts (specific texts in various/commonly used themes) for a variety of comprehension & writing strategies.

  480. Maryam Mazhar

    I would love for you to include in your podcast how to teach bilingual children. Should I teach alphabets, numbers, shapes, colors etc. in English and then teach in Arabic? I am confused about that.. would love your insight.

  482. Becky Spencer

    I’m not a homeschooler or a teacher, but I would love to hear about times tables on the podcast. My oldest is in third grade and that seems like a big part of math right now. Do you have any good strategies to help kids remember them?

  483. Julie

    For your podcasts ideas regarding classroom management is always nice. I am a special education teacher with students in kindergarten and first grade. Pulling students from class due to behaviors isn’t my favorite thing. I would like to be able to help my students remain in the classrooms longer instead of missing core instruction time due to behaviors.

    • Missy Holm

      Would like to see different themes to keep 4-4 year olds engaged and loving to learn how to play. Some of my kids have lost their way in learning to use their imaginations to play.

  485. Maricela

    My son is on the spectrum and one of the biggest hurdles is memory recall with non-high interest items/topics I.e language arts and writing. Could you provide ideas/strategies how to tackle this?

  488. Stephanie Hobson

    I would like to hear about strategies for engaging literacy and math activities for Kindergarten and 2nd graders in a homeschool setting.

  491. Katie Kelly

    As a first year, first grade teacher, your membership program has SAVED me. I love everything you do and I’m so grateful. Thank you!

  492. Jaclyn Clark

    Thanks for the exposure to new literature. These will be great for text-to-text comparisons.

  494. Donna

    I would like to get information on where to find beginning chapter books for students who are in 3rd grade but are not readers yet. As in other posts that I read they so want to read chapter books. I do allow them to “read” chapter books with lots of pictures because they can get some of the content that way and feel as if they are reading a chapter book. They also love to read books at their level too.

  497. Allison

    Thank you for all your amazing resources! I do a lot of modifications and differentiate things daily and my kiddos love your activities!!

  498. Linda Monroe

    Thank you for sharing your time and talents to help make learning and teaching fun and engaging. My students enjoy your activities and I enjoy having fresh ideas to work with.
    I love sharing new literature with my kinders. They would really enjoy the books in the giveaway. Thank you for offering this giveaway!
    Linda Monroe

  500. Melissa

    I would love to hear a podcast from you! I recently switched from 6th grade to teaching 1st and 2nd grade resource. Any way to make the lower level lessons more engaging, exciting, and fun is what I want to hear about!

  501. Sharon

    My class would love these! Thanks for all your fabulous blogs, activities, etc.! Love getting your emails. Always filled with so many ideas.

  502. Amber Fox

    I am a kindergarten teacher and always looking for more fun and interesting ways to engage my students. These Fractured Fairytales will be perfect and they look like so much fun! Would love to win them!!! 🙂

  503. Sara

    First of all, I just want to say how much your post has helped me in our homeschooling adventures, you are amazing! Second, I would love a podcast about how to manage time homeschooling all my kids when they range in age so much. The little ones are still young and not independent learners yet. I have to sit by each of them and by the time I’ve helped one the next one is needing help!

  505. Rosalyn

    I would love for you to talk about ways to help struggling readers excel and help them to gain confidence. Also, what are some early signs that would help you determine if a child could potentially be a struggling reader? What preventions or proactive approaches would you recommend?

  506. Danielle

    I would love to hear more about small group reading instruction on your podcast and how to best utilize those precious 15 minutes!

  508. Kathy

    I am new to second grade and keep hearing these are great books to use. Can’t wait to see what plans are out there regarding these stories!

  511. Felicia Powell

    Wow! What an awesome opportunity to increase the literacy skills of young minds. My students would love to have these interesting books as a part of the classroom library. Thank you for such a wonderful opportunity.
