SHORT VOWELS WILL NEVER BE THE SAME

Okay, so if you follow the old Factory, you know that I am on Fall Break.  What have I been doing with myself you ask??  Eating oodles of junk food and watching reruns of Cheers?  No.  Sleeping in and taking long afternoon naps? No. Heading to the gym each and every morning?  Uh, yeah right.  I could go on and on . . . but, I'll spare you my stupid drama.  I have been updating my very first TPT creations.  I have been meaning to do this for months, but it's kinda like buying tires.  I have a set . . . they may be bald, but they kinda work.  Well, after cringing one two many times when a Short Vowel Pack Cha-Ching came in, I decided to do something about it.  Have y'all been here??

These units always had great content (in my humble opinion), but they just weren't up to my latest design standards.  Let's just say that I've come a LONG way in the creating department.  Case in point . . . 



I always used the worst fonts when I began.  It's all about modeling DOLLING! Come on now . . . you know better.  Any-who, I have been editing like crazy and I have finished Short A, Short E, and Short O.  Short I is on deck and Short U is in the hole (this one will take a bit because I only finished half of it last year).  I think I can . . . I think I can :)  I smell a rockin' bundle coming!

Not only did I update the borders, fonts, and graphics, but I also added additional templates.  Many are EDITABLE now too.  This will allow you to tailor the activities to meet your specific short vowel needs :)  BOOM . . . how ya like them pumpkins??  Oh yeah . . . and don't forget that each short vowel pack comes with a Ron Brown's Intelli-Tunes song.  DOUBLE BOOM!!!!


All About Short A
All About Short E 
All About Short O

If you purchased these, be sure to re-download them.  I want you to benefit from these new changes.  I know I will be . . . we are in short vowel land right now and it is so great to have cleaner materials to use!!!  

Alright, I am off to dig through and rip apart my Short I packet.  I'll see you soon with a freebie from one of these!  Big hugs my friends and merry Wednesday to ya :)

  1. Looks great! And I know what you mean. I have a few cringe-worthy products that make me wonder how they ever saw the light of day. Or why people ever bought them! I need to get crackin' on my makeovers too :)
