I just wanted to do a quick reminder that there’s only a couple hours left to use code BTS19 for the Back to School Sale on Teachers Pay Teachers. It will give you an extra 5% off and if you shop my store, that makes your discount up to 25% off! Just click on the banner to be taken to The Treasured Schoolhouse to visit my store. Also, my store will continue through tomorrow, 8 August, and will continue to be 20% off.

I thought that I’d share some of the best deals in my store right now. As I mentioned, it’s on sale for 20% off, so when you grab some of these, you’re going to get an amazing deal. The top 5 deals at The Treasured Schoolhouse are….

1. The MEGA Prayer Pack BUNDLE – Catholic: This bundle contains 32 Catholic prayers and would normally be $99.50, but it’s at $69.65 with a 30% markdown discount. With the 20% off, it’s $55.72 on sale! Since making this MEGA bundle, 3 prayers have been added and if I make any more prayer packs, they will be added as well. That means that you get ALL of the updates at NO additional cost!

Need Your Help

Hello all!!
I’m working on updating one of my printables and I could use some input. I’d appreciate if you’d read through and then vote in the poll to help me out with this.

I have a booklet for the 10 Commandments. There is a little kids and a big kids version. In the little kids version, I try to simplify all the Commandments so that they’re easier to understand. In the big kids version, they’re the actual words of the Commandments. My problem is with the little kids version.

Since I work with littles (PreK-K), I had to have my DRE double check what I was using in class. The wording that she let me use for the 6th Commandment is “Do not love another”, which is actually “Thou shalt not commit adultery”. Obviously I can’t use adultery because the littles don’t understand it and we actually don’t discuss it that much. It is more along the lines of “you should only love the person that you’re with” (and of course family and friends).

My issue is that I’ve had a couple complaints about this wording. I’ve been told that it doesn’t make sense unless it’s fully explained to them (2nd graders) and it’s confusing for children and should be worded differently (grades K-4). No input on what the other wording could be or how to make it less confusing or how it wouldn’t have to be fully explained.

So, how should I word it?? I can make it “Do not love another than the one you’re with”, but that gets pretty long and awkward looking for text to be colored in by the children. Please take the poll below to help me with this dilemma. You can also type in your own choice for wording as well. Also, feel free to leave a comment on this post with your ideas.

Thanks for reading….and voting in the poll to help me out!!

Ten Commandments Lacing

Quite some time ago, I made a lacing card for the Ten Commandments. It’s so hard to find them with the Catholic version, so I just used what I had. Was rather a bummer because I couldn’t use them for my kiddos in class. Then, not too long ago, I rediscovered this lacing card and shared them in my Christian Y!Group and I was asked to create a Catholic version. I didn’t find anything suitable, so I had my fantastic hubby draw me the tablets and then I added the words.

Here’s a thumbnail view of of the lacing cards….

I’d also appreciate it if you’d click the button below to vote for my blog. (You can vote ONCE a day!!) I also have a “contact” button in the right column.
