T.G.I.F. Linky Party at Mrs. Mc's Place-March Brings Spring and Women's History Month

It's March and maybe the madness is due in part because here on the East Coast we're so happy to be thinking of spring! A lot is going on this month.  Women's History Month, St. Patrick's Day, and Pi Day, just to name a few highlights.  Whatever your subject or grade, if you're looking for some fun, creative, possibly challenging resources, you should find them here.  As always, some of those irresistible leprechauns from TpT may have tucked in a freebie or two as well.

Aw, say it ain't so, Punxsutawney Phil.  I'm ready for Spring now!  Okay, whining done-let's move on.  As I stated in the title, there is a lot to love about this month.  Obviously, there's Valentine's Day-did I mention chocolate?  It's Black History Month and so much more.  I have a few webquests to help celebrate the various holidays.

T.G.I.F. Linky Party at Mrs. Mc's Place-February Highlights

Did you see the recent episode of Timeless?  I'm so hooked on this show-time travel and history!  Does it get any better?  This show featured, among others, Bass Reeves.  He was one of the first black Deputy U.S. Marshals to serve in the west.  He was known to be very good at his job. Many think he was the inspiration for the Lone Ranger.  I had done a webquest about Bass and was really excited to see his appearance.  


February is full of special occasions to mark with your students.  Black History Month, Chinese New Year, Groundhog Day, Valentine's Day, and Presidents' Day, and I'm sure I've left something out.  Lucky for you, the creative cast and crew of TpT have been hard at work preparing plenty of inspiring resources to make your February all that you want it to be for your students.  Browse this wonderful collection and be sure to check out the free lessons that are included.
