There are 15 practice pages with 6 subtraction problems on each page. Students are able to start with the pictures and cross off circles to subtract. This is something I use for students having a hard time figuring out the difference between adding and subtracting.

Addition and Subtraction with a number line

Three choices for multiple choice answers. Twelve questions per page with 3 pages addition and 3 pages subtraction. Students can color in their answer or use a highlighter to indicate their answer. I use this for a quick practice for students who are unable to write independently. This gives me the opportunity to see what they know and collect the data. Most of the student I work with are unable to write and often need to use number cards to give their answer.

There are 36 cards for addition (0-30) and 36 cards for subtraction (0-35). Subtraction cards focus on subtracting 10 and subtracting to get to 10. The turtles and birds can also be used for students to show their counting skills. Tell them a number and have them count that many birds or turtles. Tips for use: Laminate and put magnets onto the back. I use them on the whiteboard for kids to use as a hands on activity. The last two pages have blank cards for each animal group for you to make up

About the store

Experience

I have taught for a year at the primary level and six years at the intermediate level within the Special Education population of DCD and ASD. My students are working on functional academics.

Teaching style

My key focus is life skills and functional academics. Teaching the students to go out into the world with as little assistance as needed. I try to bring the real world to them as much as possible. Hands on is the best way to get students to explore their world.

Awards & shining teacher moments

Surviving the daily life of a teacher with multiple behaviors and needs. Nominated for MN Teacher of the Year 2017.

My own education history

I have a degree in special education focusing on Developmental Cognitive Disabilities.

Additional biographical information

I love working with students on life skills and getting them ready to move on to their next adventure. I also feel it is important to bring the outside world to the students. Special guests always welcome!
