  1. Love your Dr. Seuss Thinking Maps! I especially like the word family one. I wouldn't have thought to do it that way- thanks!

  6. Thank you! These downloads are amazing. My district is emphasizing thinking charts across all grade levels, well K-8 right now. As part of the literacy leadership team I'm trying to find fun ways to use the charts. Your Thinking Chart Thursdays have me so excited!
