novel touches

Touch
$14.98
It may be weird but some movies I watch over and over, maybe not sit down and watch but have going as a background to chores, etc. I call those movies "my friend". This is one of those movies for me. It is romantic and quirky. The movie is pretty without lots of fussy, overdone set design. The characters can really shine. You will see an older Skeet as the star of Jericho on TV.

The Touch: A Novel
$7.99
Each one of Colleen McCullough's is different, but well written. I enjoyed this along with her many other works.

The Chocolate Touch Teaching Unit CD
$8.99
This a custom written CD-ROM containing the literature unit to be used with The Chocolate Touch by Patrick Skene Catling. This unit is designed to be used with some student/instructor interaction. It can also be revised to be used as an independent study for the student. It is written as a 10-day unit, but can be slowed down or sped up as needed for the individual student. The unit is written for a student that reads on the 3-5th grade level. It would work great in a one-on-one setting for homeschool or for a teacher to use as a resource in the classroom for a small group or entire class. The unit is designed so that you can start teaching immediately with little to no preparation on your part. Great time saver! This unit contains: 1. Teacher Packet containing detailed daily lesson plans, an answer key, and suggested curriculum connection activities. 2. Student Packet containing vocabulary activities, comprehension questions, and extended writing activities that correlate with the book. 3. An after the book activity packet. The unit comes in a PDF file on a CD. You can then print off as many copies as you desire. It can be used on either a PC or a MAC. Software needed is Adobe Acrobat Reader. This can be downloaded for free from the Adobe website if you don't already have it on your computer. I wrote and developed this unit myself. I am a certified teacher in the state of Nebraska. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education from Iowa State University and a Master's Degree in Elementary Education from the University of Nebraska-Omaha. In addition to my Masters I have taken graduate courses on teaching of the Gifted and Talented. I have successfully used these activities in the classroom setting many times. **Book not included.

Deadly Little Lies (A Touch Novel)
$16.99
OK, I've been reading A LOT lately. I wasn't sure where this sequel was going to go and if it was going to be any good, but I liked it better than the first book. This was read in just a couple of days as well and I now want to check out other books by this author. If you're reading this review then get the first book and read it and then read this one. I also just finished As You Wish by Jackson Pearce and I loved that book as well!!!
