I've had lots of requests for Science and Social Studies worksheets. Unfortunately, there are just so many topics, it's hard to know where to begin. So far, we've had a few plant worksheets, some 50 states worksheets, simple science experiments, and a few others.

Today, I present a new page... Human Body Worksheets

It has many articles about the body's organs (Thanks Cindy!). It also features diagrams of the body that kids can label (Thanks Lyn!).

Many teachers have written e-mails inquiring about an Excel gradebook template for elementary teachers. Because I'm not very fluent in Excel, I haven't been able to add one to the site.. until now. My friend Donny, an Excel wizard, designed a terrific gradebook just for you. Check it out:

Excel Elementary Gradebook

This gradebook will calculate student averages, convert number grades to letter grades, and it even has tabs for each subject areas. Just punch in your class' names, assignments, and grades and the spreadsheet does all the work!
