These activities are all relevant to what my firsties need to know. They are in for a treat because I am going to try incorporating these into a Daily 5 Math rotation - their first time doing such a thing!

Hi.
I submitted a question on 1/11 about some of the activities in this packet. Is there an update available?
Thanks so much.
Hi.
We found a few needed corrections:
1. Snowman subtraction needs a 5 changed to a 4 (snowflake card)
2. Snowy sums needs a 6 changed to a 9 (fish card)
3. Frosty fact families has 2 11-5=6; still need a 11-6=5
Thanks so much for the packet. Even with a few glitches, it still saves me loads of time.

Today, one of my sweeties was really upset that she couldn't find another four to answer one of her problems in Snowman Subtraction. Upon further review, there's an extra 5 as an answer choice and not enough 4s! I just printed off an extra page tonight to put that extra 4 in there tomorrow, but I thought I'd let you know! :-)
Hi Cara!
I love your stuff! But for some reason, your font shows up as a black box in my copies. I looked through your packet and it doesn't say what font you used. Can you please send me the font so I can download it without all those pesky black boxes? Thanks! My email address is: mparikhtwo@gmail.com. And check out our first freebie TPT product at http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/
Two-Night-Owl-Teachers. We're just getting started so it's nothing fancy.
Thanks so much for your help!

Boo!!!! So sorry for the inconvenience!!! Make sure you have the latest version of Adobe Reader installed. If you're working on a Mac, you need to open the file in READER and not in preview!!! If none of this works, contact me at thefirstgradeparade@gmail.com. You can always contact the TpT help desk, too!
Blessings to you!

Hello! I love these activities, they are very cute and perfect for my visual little guys! As I downloaded the file I'm noticing some of the measurement activities, place value activities, and time telling activities have little blurred boxes that go from black and gradually get lighter. I'm trying to see if it's maybe how my computer is pulling it up, but all the other images are showing nicely. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you, I so look forward to using your materials!

Hello! Are all of your math centers based around the Common Core? Thanks...
Cara,
I am getting centers ready for next year and I noticed that on page 36 (Frosty Fact Families) 11-5=6 is there twice and 11-6=5 is missing. Did not see any other comments to let you know. Thanks for all of your hard work!
Ohmiword. Thanks for the heads up!! I'll fix that asap!!! THANK YOU!

Hi I just purchased your unit and I was wondering if there was a reason why the dime is a lot larger on some of the cards than the penny? I have told my students to look at the size as a way to determine which coin it is. They are having trouble recognizing them and I am afraid this is going to confuse them.
I've been teaching for 10 years. I spent 7 years teaching Kindergarten and then moved up to 2nd grade and loved it! I didn't know what I was missing. A year later I moved to 1st grade and I'll never look back. It's the best!
