This is a simple math station for your students to practice their coin counting skills! Fill up some eggs with varying amounts of coins, label with the letters A-O, and have them use this FREE recording sheet to record the values within. An easily differentiated activity!

This is for our littlest learners who are just starting to write paragraphs - likely second graders (but could vary). The packet includes a 2-page packet including an opportunity for brainstorming/pre-writing, and 3-steps to draft the paragraph. It also includes a few different pages to write the final paragraph on (with a picture box, without a picture box, and with a checklist at the bottom of the page). The final page is a list of possible paragraph topics for beginners.

This is a great, ready-to-use product to present your students' news articles/reports about their chicks hatching!

This is a FREEBIE I made to go along with the foam math dice (found at the Target Dollar Spot - but can be found/made elsewhere).
