I can't believe it has been over a year since I last released a Once Upon a Crime Reading Mystery Resource packet. I'm definitely not done with this series; I LOVE making them! That's why today I'm so excited to say that a NEW case to solve in Tale Town is available! A Knight's Tail will require your students to read plus identify and sort nouns, verbs, and adjectives! 

Being October, this month's free writing activity had to have a spooky element to it. So if you are looking for a creative writing activity to complete with your class as Halloween approaches, this post is a must-read! Within the post, you will also find a FREE worksheet of the activity to download - it can either be printed for the classroom or typed on if completing virtually. 

This week's blog post is brought to you by NYC Tutoring.
