These are wonderful games that are easy to put together for my math stations using materials I already have- card decks, dice, and dominoes. My children are just thrilled with this influx of new games to play and I am thrilled with how easy it was to get everything together- just run it off and go!

I am so grateful for your glowing review! And I'm excited for you and your students to use these Decks, Dice and Dominoes activities. It does my heart good to know other children besides my own little kiddos are enthusiastically learning while using them. Thanks again, and may you continue to have a fantastic year of teaching!

Awesome. Professional presentation, great teaching ideas. Thank you!
January 10, 2011
I'm so sorry I didn't see your comment earlier, but thank you so much for posting. I'm glad you like the presentation. The activities seem to be a real hit with my K, 1st, and 2nd grade students. (They think they are "playing" when truly they are practicing important math skills.) I hope you, too, will have great success using the activities. If I can be of any help, please let me know.
Sincerely,

Help
My name is Latika Finley and I purchased Decks, Dice, and Dominoes from you last year. The files on my school computer have been erased, and I am unable to download the book that I purchased. I wanted to know if it is possible for you to resend the book. Thanks for your help.
July 26, 2011
Hi Latika,
I hope the fact that you want the file again means that you liked the activities... :-P
If you send me your email address, I'll try to send the file. Please send your email address to me at palmieri7@comcast.net
