My Spring Break has been really productive! I love having the time to get the ideas out of my head and onto the computer. I feel like I am ready. I'm sure that feeling will start to fade Sunday night and Monday morning.
In honor of the last few days of my break I am throwing a sale in my Teachers Pay Teachers store!
Check out some of my newest products:
Spring Math Centers runs the gamut of 3rd and 4th quarter math skills for my firsties. Activities include:
- Place Value matching numeral, word, base ten blocks, tens and ones and expanded form numbers 12-99
- Measuring length and width with both nonstandard units and inches
- Time to the hour and half hour both digital and analog
- Fractions of circles and squares into halves and quarters
- Related facts find related addition and subtraction facts with part-part-whole (We are going to practice this all Spring. My students are still struggling with this, grr! They can complete fact families like nobody's business, but many aren't making the connection.)
- Word problems with sums and differences within 20
- Graphing with 3 and 4 categories and questions to analyze the graph
And how adorable are the Crazy Bugs from Graphics from the Pond? Seriously!
The Math Anchor Charts for Interactive Notebooks: Measurement and Data is up, too! (And this weekend it is only $1.60...go get it now!)
I use these anchor charts 2 to 3 times a week. The district I teach in requires us to use Interactive Notebooks in ELA, math and science. It was definitely a learning curve, but I see the impact the notebooks make. It is a different from journals. After I understood that and started teaching students *how to use* their notebooks it made all the difference.
When we do our quick review from the previous day I would see students trying to secretively turn back and peek. One day I called them out in a good way, they got stickers for using their tools. That's all it took. Students take their notebooks with them to math tubs (rotations, centers, independent work...whatever you call it). I LOVE it!
Each chart has 2 per page for easy prep. Print, slice, glue, go!
This set covers ALL the first grade Common Core Standards in Math for Measurement and Data.
It also includes vocabulary cards. I enlarge these for the word wall and print regular size for student notebooks. They glue it like a flap on their side of the journal. Under the word they draw or write their understanding of the definition. You could even just glue it down and write beside it. Whatever works for your class.
Ok, so if you're still with me you get a reward! No, not a sticker. How about a sight word freebie?

Don't forget about the sale! Happy Spring!
