Although it was made for second graders, it could also be used with any grade level studying introductory economics

The second section provides another list of irregular verbs in the present tense and asks students to change two of the

The third sections asks children to circle the possessive noun in the sentence. The final two questions ask students to write a sentence about the picture. Th

I hope you find this product useful!

Then, they answered the questions independently. This activity is aligned with the North Carolina Essential Standards for Social Studies, but can be used for any state with comparable Social Studies standards.

I created this series of worksheets for my second-graders as a review of telling time to the nearest hour, half hour, and quarter hour before we began telling time to the nearest five minutes.

They could be used as a pre or post-assessment, morning work, classwork, or in a homework packet. They're also great for an end of the year or be

You could also divide the students (depending upon their age) into small groups and have them share their packets with one another. It w
