Days of the Week Freebie

After Thanksgiving we are going to focus on learning the days of the week!  Most can recite them in order, although some start with January... 

Now we need to learn to read and spell them!

We will start the week by reading Today is Monday.   It's a classic loved by all.  I love singing the song with them.  This will help with learning the order of the days of the week.  I also like to hand out cards labeled with the days of the week and have the 7 kids get themselves in order and they hold up the cards as we sing their day.

If you are musically challenged here is a video that plays the song for you.

At their centers they will make this cut and paste book of the days of the week!

You can grab a copy by clicking on the picture.

Making Quick and Easy Flashcards

Check out http://www.kitzkikz.com/flashcards

This is a free site to make flashcards.

If you want a front and back you can do that by adding a word and definition.  But what I like to do is make sight word cards.  They are nothing fancy but they get the job done.

Click on the PDF button when you are done adding in your words.

You can modify the settings to how you would like them to print out.  Then view PDF in a new window and Wah Lah - flashcards

The font size adjusts to fit the word.  

This would be great for students to use.  

They can make their own definition cards or addition and subtraction cards.

Updated and Better Seed and Plant Unit and a FREEBIE

I am so excited to have updated my Seed and Plant Unit.  I added some math centers and word wall work and added some really cute clipart!  I'm hoping to update more of my units this summer!

At this point of the year I'm trying to step up the math and I'm introducing double digit addition with no regrouping.  We done this previously with the 100s grid and blocks but now I'm just going to teach it the old fashioned way!  So I made a center for this and a worksheet to test them independently after they complete the center.  

Students will add the double digit problems on the petals and put them around the correct potted plant.  The pedals are self-checking!

   

There are two levels for the Place Value Write the Room.  The recording sheets have pictures to correlate to the level so they know which card to look for.

Of course I kept in my wonderful Mr. Potato Head pieces that my brother drew for me!  He's an awesome artist!   Add these to your plant cups for a lot of fun!

If you're interested please stop by either of my shops!

TpT or TN

Here's the freebie I promised you!  It's part of my Seeds and Plant Unit.  If you like this word bingo you can get more at TpT and TN for $2.00.  Click on the picture to get your freebie!

Well my break is almost over and back to the kiddos!  Tomorrow, I'm scrapbooking all day with my friends!  Enjoy the rest of your time off!

Basketball Bonanza Sight Word Game Freebie

Happy Spring??  Little cold for spring but I see some relief in sight!  I am so happy to have my computer back and working!  It's been at the Geek Squad for weeks!  One thing good about it being gone was I had done a lot of other things around the house!

This week is our review week in reading.  My district uses the Treasures reading series from 2007.  Sight words are getting harder so to help with practicing them I made up this fun basketball game.

I uploaded the scoreboard to my Promethean board so we could keep score on it.  The kids had fun.  We also went into "overtime" and did some fluency shots.  They lined up in their teams and the first one to say the word earned an extra point for the team.
