Nemo's Nook
History and ELA resources from 6-12th grade (mostly Middle School). All of the resources I post are those that I have made for use in my own classroom and find that they are practical, easy to use and encourage critical thinking. If a resource does not work for me in my classroom, then I don't post it. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for my store or any questions about the resources.
