YouTube Tuesday: Mayim Bialik - Blossoming To Science
Welcome to another YouTube Tuesday!
Today's video features actor Mayim Bialik, who you might know better by her TV character names of Blossom or Amy from Big Bang Theory. As well as being an actor, Mayim is a scientist (yep, art imitating life in her Big Bang role!) and she is passionate about encouraging girls and women in Science. Show this video to every little girl you know!

Freebie Friday: Christmas Bookmarks
It's time for another Freebie Friday, and this week the official countdown to Christmas begins at Little Green HQ. Yep, I know it's November, but the end of the year is looming ever so close, and we all need to get organised, right? With that in mind, Little Green presents your first Christmas freebie of the season: Christmas Bookmarks!
This set of cheery bookmarks feature festive clip art from KPM Doodles and gorgeous glitter from Sonya DeHart.
Use them as rewards, use them as gifts or keep them for yourself, it's entirely up to you! Get yours here!
In keeping with the Christmas theme, another new resource has just gone up in the Little Green store: Maths Fraction Task Cards.
As you can see, these little babies will fit in beautifully with your Christmas or Winter theme, but I've deliberately kept the theme subtle so that the cards can be used all year round.
The cards are designed to help your students become more fluent in halves, quarters and eighths. They align to the Australian Curriculum for Year 2 and the NSW Syllabus for Stage 1, but they would also be suitable for higher grades who need to work on their fluency before diving into more difficult fractions. Lots of word problems have been included, as well as visual problems.
Plans are afoot for more fraction task cards to match this set, so watch this space! In the meantime, this set of cards is on sale for a limited time, so get in quick! Get your copy here!
It may be just a tad too early to say Merry Christmas, so I'll just say have a great weekend instead!

YouTube Tuesday: The Dot
It's Tuesday again, and that means it's time for another terrific YouTube video!
This week, I'm sharing a great little animated version of the wonderful picture book The Dot by Peter Reynolds. In this story, a little girl named Vashti is frustrated in art class because she feels she can't draw. Her teacher encourages her to make a mark on the page. Vashti angrily draws a dot, which her teacher makes her sign. And that's where the fun begins! This story will help your students find the courage to have a go. Enjoy!
