This looks spectacular, it will take "some work" on my part, but very little of gathering materials. It looks well worth it! I cannot wait to begin in Aug/Sept.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:
klc364 re: Morning Basket Work {August}
I'm confused is this for first grade or second grade? In the description it says they are based on first grade ccss, but then it says the first month is easy because they are new second graders.
May 21, 2013
Heather Perkins (TpT Seller)
The August packet is made really for either. They way I use it in my 2nd grade room is what is explained in description. Since August is the first month the kids are in school I haven't had time to teach them 2nd grade ccss, so this packet it based on 1st grade ccss to get them used to the way the morning work basket is designed. They should have already been taught 1st grade ccss so they should be able to complete the activities while getting a grasp on how the morning work routine will work the entire year. If you purchase the rest of the months or the bundle for the whole year the activities increase in difficulty and start being based on 2nd grade ccss. Hope that makes sense. If not, email me (secondgradeperks@gmail.com) and I will try to further explain the process.

Meredith Mitchell (TpT Seller) re: Common Core For the Whole Year
First of all, let me say that I am loving this! The games and activities are great. I do have one favor to ask though. Could you please make an instruction somewhere if the cards for an activity should be run front to back. I've had a couple of things I ran and laminated only to find out I should have done front to back. Thanks!
April 25, 2013
Heather Perkins (TpT Seller)
I am so glad you love the packet. Please let me know which pages you are referring to for more specific directions. I went back and looked at the packet and the pages I see that require back to back printing say it on the direction page (pages 205,215, 337) I do see the directions on page 316 and page 343 just say for students to check the answer on the back of the card and does not specifically say to print back to back. You will need to print the answers on the back of pages 318-329 and pages 344-347. If there is anything else that is unclear please message me back and I will get back with you ASAP! Thanks!

laurel005 re: Safari Adventure Animal Research
I love the safari research packet I bought. However, I did have one question. I wish that each animal had it's own research paper packet. For instance that if a child was researching monkeys then the whole research paper had little monkey pictures on each page. Right now it is a different african animal on each page. Or a research set that didn't have any animal on it would be okay too. They could add their own illustration.
April 9, 2013
Heather Perkins (TpT Seller)
Email me at secondgradeperks@gmail.com and I will send you some copies without the animals on each page.

Heather Perkins (TpT Seller)
It depends on the level of your group. You have a set of cards and they play as a team. One person on the team will pull a card and have to give the correct plural of the word they pull. If they get it right they get a point and it is the next team's turn. There are some cards that say Kaboom. If they pull one of these the team loses all the points they have and start over collecting points. My class loves it!

laceyc
I looked more closely at the task cards too. I think some of them will work perfectly. Before you could respond to me, I began trying to make a word doc. However, it is nothing like yours. :) I emailed it to secondgradeperks@gmail.com. Hopefully it will give you a starting point...Thanks so much for your quick response and help.
February 20, 2013
laceyc re: Common Core Standards Math Measurement and Data
I bought it, but I see a comparision between two different units of measurements. That is more like standard 2.md.2. I am looking for an activity where they measure let's say the giraffe and the girl and have to figure out the diffence in lengths. I see a lot of questions that would work on the ladder game, but not an activity that could be more teacher led like the Measuring Madness. Am I right? Do you have anything like that?
February 20, 2013
Heather Perkins (TpT Seller)
I could use the picture cards in the packet you bought and make a sheet to go with that activity where they figure out the difference in lengths. Send me your email and I will work on it this weekend and send it to you if that is okay.
February 20, 2013
laceyc re: Common Core Standards Math Measurement and Data
Does this have any thing for 2.MD.4-Measure to determine how much longer one object is than another expressing the length difference in terms of a standard length unit? Thanks.
February 20, 2013
Heather Perkins (TpT Seller)
Yes, there are picture cards the students will estimate a measuremment for and then measure with a ruler using centimeters and inches. There is a comparing sheet that goes with the activity.

When you download the product it should open in powerpoint. Then you can click wherever you want and change everything except the month and pictures. I just tried downloading it and changing some words and it let me. Let me know if it still doesn't work for you.

I'm glad you like the idea! I am not sure of anyone. I know if you have 1st these might work for some higher students. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Casey and Wes Rethman (TpT Seller) re: Common Core Geometry
First of all, I LOVE your packet! There were two mistakes that I found on the pre/post tests. On the Geometry test #5 should be an octagon but that isn't a choice. And #2 on the fractions pre/post test should be 2/3 but it isn't a choice. I wondered if you could fix those and send those to me. I am teaching the fraction portion now and use the assessments. Thank you for all the super fun ideas!
January 7, 2013
Heather Perkins (TpT Seller)
I tried to update the packet and it will not save it for some reason. Email me at secondgradeperks@gmail.com and I will send it to you that way. Sorry : )

Really quick, do you use this from front cover to back cover (the order it's printed?) Just trying to guage where to start. I've been using our districts math book and would like to switch to this now in January.
Thanks!
Thanks!
December 13, 2012
Heather Perkins (TpT Seller)
Oh no, you can start it wherever you are with your lessons. I would say that if you have already covered some of the standards with your district's book you could go back and use the activites in this packet to review those. It is not in any specific order so you can skip around as you need for your class. The way I did it was I printed it all out and laminted what needed to be laminated and divided it into categories to store it (I use labeled gift boxes to store) that way when I am covering say time I can pull that box out and all of the time materials are in there ready to go. Hope that helps (and makes sense).
