Hi Reader! Read Across America Week will be here before you know it! Does your school have a big celebration? In my classroom, a favorite book for many years was Green Eggs and Ham. I even had students who memorized the entire book they loved it so much! 🥰 Each March, I used Green Eggs and Ham to work on my student's reading IEP goals so I created lots of great communication and comprehension activities to go along with it. Plus some progress monitoring sheets so I didn't have to reinvent them each year. Other classes love Green Eggs and Ham too! This is one of my most reviewed picture book units! And of course we always ended the unit with making our own green eggs and ham! This recipe can be found in my March Bundle! 😉 Until next time! |

Hi Reader! I started blogging in 2012 as a way to share ideas and network with other SpEducators when I often felt like I was on my own little island as the only special education classroom in my building. Fast forward 12 years later and I have expanded my blog into my TPT store and these weekly Snippets that I get to share with all of you. The only problem was my blog was still stuck in 2012 🫣🫣🫣 Until now... I'm so excited to introduce the new Miss Allison's SpEd Spot! My new site makes it...
