- Once everything is cut out, fold along the dotted lines.
- Now stack your Numberblocks in orders from Two to Eighteen.
- Cut out the Twenty and pop him in the middle of your stack.
- Paste the two Twenties together at the bottom and wrap them around your stack.

Cats. Dogs. Potbellied pigs. Kids LOVE pets. We've taken this high-interest topic and pulled together some amazing teaching resources for grades 2–5 — starting with this printable pet report flip book! We recommend having students take notes and then create a draft before using the template for their final copy. Each flap will focus on a different aspect of pets: appearance, habitat and home setup, diet and feeding, care and exercise, and fun facts. Students will answer questions on each page and draw or paste a visual that connects to the text. To assemble, students cut and stack the pages in order, then attach them at the top with staples.
Hint: Watch one of our amazing My Pet and Me video clips to get students inspired and to get information for their reports!
Feeling stressed? Try reading this out loud!
Researchers have found that reading together can help strengthen bonds and reduce stress. In a recent study, families were asked to read together while wearing a brain monitoring cap that tracks activity over time. The results suggested that moments of shared reading can sync brain patterns between two people, which then suggest that the experience of reading books together helps parents and children connect.
Furthermore, the importance of stories themselves can’t be ignored. Stories are how people explain the world and their lives to one another — the decisions you make and the person you become are partially influenced by the stories you’ve read or heard. The research is very new, but studies of this sort can help us understand why reading together builds empathy, focus, emotional well-being, and might support children’s development and encourage a lifelong love of reading. And not just because a good story might distract two siblings for long enough to stop flicking each other’s ears!
In The Mormon Journey to Freedom, Simon Reeve hikes with two Mormon sisters as they explore the rugged Mormon Trail and share their faith. Along the way, he learns how Joseph Smith founded Mormonism and inspired thousands to trek through the harsh Rockies in search of freedom. The sisters reflect on their deep connection to those pioneers and explain how their religion continues to expand through dedicated missionaries. This video is excerpted from BBC’s The Americas With Simon Reeve, in which Simon Reeve explores the landscapes, cultures, and wildlife of North and South America.
Bluey and Bingo are hanging out in their bedroom. Color the picture and circle what you think they should play. Should it be Doctors or Taxi? Or maybe they should make up a totally new game. Bluey and Bingo's bedroom is a space for the two sisters to share, featuring two twin beds, a bookcase, a skylight, and a ledge with ladder access.
