    Emma, your work is so amazing. I'm in my second year teaching second grade...as a second career! I wanted to let you know that there's a typo on your Chinese Zodiac doc you just posted. On the second page, it states "Propose of this resource" instead of "Purpose...". Please feel free to remove this comment as soon as you read it! I just wasn't sure how else to get in touch with you! Thanks, Misty Pelliciotta

    Misty, you are the best! Thanks for letting me know. I finished up the file a few days before Christmas and must have been in Christmas mode. Thanks again for being so kind and letting me know about the typo. Emma :)

    Hi Emma, what is the "wu" next to horse? And the "you" next to the chicken in your preview? I don't understand. Can you tell me your source for the Chinese? I teach at a bilingual Chinese/English school. It would be helpful to make the Chinese words mandarin Chinese which is the Chinese they use in most of China.
    rat: shu
    ox: niu
    tiger: hu
    rabbit: tu
    dragon: long
    snake: she
    horse: ma
    goat/sheep: yang
    monkey: hou
    rooster: ji
    dog: gou
    pig: zhu

    Let me know if you have a change and I'll totally buy it! It's so cute!!!!!
