Supporting teachers to become better educators

As a teacher, you know the kind of teacher you want to be, but you don't see how you will make that happen with everything you need to do in a day.

You feel stressed and overwhelmed with all you need to do each day. You spend hours planning, prepping and marking each day only to do it all over again the next day. This is time that you don't have .

Teachers love. . .

I was new to grade 5 and teaching in general. This resource helped me feel confident and prepared in teaching all of these units. Students found experiments and inquiry projects engaging and meaningful. Thank you!

This is a great unit to own! I have used it for both split classes and straight grades. There is a lot of valuable information in this packet. There are full lesson plans for you to follow along with your class and the activities are very hands on and some units do require a lot of inquiry and research from the students (as stated in the title). With the amount of inquiry involved I would say these units are more designed for your higher students (especially if you are trying to complete the lessons in a split grade). Overall a great resource and Madly Learning is always willing to provide assistance when needed!

This has brought my ELA instruction to the next level! It took some time to figure out the program and it does take a little time in the beginning to prep, but is sooo user friendly. It has helped me to make the most out of every instructional minute!

I was new to teaching in the Junior grades (after teaching 10 years in Primary) I knew how to teaching students to read, but had no idea what to do with them once they could read, haha. This resource was invaluable to me as a grade 4 teacher for so many reasons. I loved how it helped me organize the year. I knew that I was teaching all the aspects of the curriculum multiple times because of the spiralling aspect of the program. The guided reading passages were differentiated which was amazing for my classes. The graphic organizers and resources that the students used were well laid out and organized. My students thrived when given the ability to write about what they wanted. Finally, the read-aloud books are high engaging for students, varied in topics and interests. My students loved finding out what our new book was each week. This program is incredible!!

Really interesting activities for students to practice different math skills. They are able to practice the same type of activities over and over which is great for building confidence and reviewing specific skills. Easy to implement and great for formative assessment 🙂 Thank you

Welcome! My name is Patti.

I am a teacher in Ontario Canada. I teach a 4/5 split grade class and very much enjoy teaching a split for the opportunities for differentiation.

My blog started a few years ago when I saw a lack of teacher blogs that reflected my needs as a Canadian teacher. Since then, I have grown to blog about my experiences in my classroom and new pedagogies as I experience them. Selling my resources on TPT was a natural progression for me after many requests for the materials that I was writing about.

At the same time, I have grown my family. Our family is now complete with our three wonderful children. I couldn’t do any of this without the support of my husband. He has been very helpful and supportive of my endeavors! He is now an integral part of Madly Learning inc. by helping to support my efforts both here on my blog and on TPT.
