Gold Star Exit Tickets: Addition with Regrouping

Hello everyone!! I am very excited to be posting my first edition of my new line of exit tickets! I am a lover of exit tickets and have been using them often in my classroom. However I didn't feel that I was using them to the best of my ability before. i knew there was more information i could collect from them as well as better questions to ask the students before they left. So I came up with this outline which will be seen throughout all of my exit tickets (however the skill will change)

Gold Star Exit Tickets: Number Sense

Hello everyone!! Here is the second installment of my exit tickets. This edition is for number sense. Each ticket will have a goal on it so the students know exactly what their goal is for that specific ticket. Each ticket will also have a rating scale at the bottom for the students to use.

Brain Book: Fact Families

Hello everyone! This product is the first in a larger series of books. I originally came up with this idea as a means to send a resource home for students to work on at the end of a unit to review and show me what they really know.

Experience

I have been through many of the lower grades. 1st and 2nd are my absolute favorites, but I also have a soft spot for 4th! I absolutely LOVE teaching. I couldn't ever imagine doing anything else. Reading is a passion of mine, and I am currently going back to grade school to get my reading specialist certificate.

Teaching style

I want the environment of my classroom to be one where students are excited to come to each and every day. I want them to feel safe, and know that their classroom is a place where they can express themselves. With the being said, I am a stickler for behavior. My students learn that right off the bat. I love rewarding good behavior. FUN is my middle name, and I put that word into as much of my activities as possible.

Awards & shining teacher moments

I graduated with honors in undergrad, and will hopefully be doing even more for grad school!

My own education history

I graduated high school in 2007. I attended the University of Pitt at Johnstown Campus. College was the most amazing time of my life. I loved every minute of it. Th education program was wonderful. I was able to do 4 Field placements and 3 different student teaching experiences. I graduated college in 2011. I am now currently going back to grad school for reading at Edinboro.
