I created this number grid to help my students who really struggle with how to use a number grid as a tool to help them solve the problem. Students can visually see the numbers that match up based on color. Hope this helps your room too!

I created this punch card for my kids to use during my managed independent learning time. They must do something from each color every day. After they complete one color, they color in a light on the stoplight. I have found this to make my centers time run much smoother! I get MANY messages asking for the "editable" version. This file that you download from my TPT store IS the editable version. It is a Microsoft Word file that you can adapt to your classroom! :) Could be used for Daily 5 or mana

This packet is 10 pages of activities to go with the book "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" by Eric Carle. You will find a math, language arts, science, and writing page! This is a great way to read one book, but cover many standards!!

I created these pages to go with the 100 titles that I have in my listening center collection. I wanted the kids to answer a question in the text, as well as beyond the text. And I wanted to see that they were truly comprehending what they were hearing and were using the book to solve the questions. These are the titles that are included: Listening Center Book List 1. Grover Goes to School 2. Chicka Chicka Boom Boom 3. Hunter’s Best Friend at School 4. Food Alphabet 5. I Ain’t Gonna Paint No M

After MANY hours of work, I am thrilled to put this on Teachers Pay Teachers! Included in this file is every Lanuage Arts Common Core State Standard along with an activity to go along with most standards. Not every common core standard has a lesson, as many of them I felt were taught on a daily basis without the help of a lesson. I have also created a flipchart for ActivInspire to go along with each state standard that has a paper included in this book. Some of them I got from other authors and

This product is great! I just did this with my class today, and they loved it! There are seven different versions of the "Three Little Pigs" story. All are slightly different.

There are seven different books represented that our class read. Each book contains the following: 1 cover page with picture of the book 1 page

In my classroom we used these stamina graphs and colored them in each day we read. If we made it 5 minutes one day, we colored one bar until 5. It was helpful to color each day a different color to easily see it. Also, something I did to make it easier for myself in years to come was to laminate it before coloring on it!

I love playing this game with my class at the beginning of the year to get know them better!
