I used this activity following a lesson on sense of smell. We discussed why smell is important and what kinds of things you can smell, and what kinds of things you cannot sense with smell. I had brought in several things for them to smell and guess what it is they were smelling. This activity lets them cut and paste the pictures and place into a T-Chart either under the nose for "can smell" or the "cannot smell" column. This is a great way to formally assess sense of smell in the primary gra

This activity reinforces comparative endings -er and -est. The students are given great visuals and must determine which comparative ending the picture describes.

Through this handout or center activity students are adjective detectives! Their mission to find all of the adjectives in the poem "Do Spiders Stick to Their Own Webs?" (poem provided with a picture) and circle them. This can be done individually, cooperatively in groups or pairs, or displayed on a Promethean Board or projector and done as a class.

This PDF file has 20 pages of Bingo Cards (1 card on each page) which are great for learning to tell time to the hour and half hour. They are predominantly used for telling time on an analog clock, but some cards have some digital times as well. They are used exactly like the game of bingo. The teacher calls out a time, and students mark on their cards (with an object if you choose to laminate and reuse, or crayon if you're disposing of them). It's a fun and interactive way of learning to te

I used this when I tutored a 3rd grade student who was significantly behind in math to see what all concepts he had mastered from his second grade year. This is similar to what 2nd grade students were pre-assessed at the beginning of the year and then post-assessed at the end of the year in the classroom. The assessment consists of 2 pages with 11 problems with numbers and pictures. Concepts assessed include: number concepts, word problems, addition, subtraction, number words, skip counting,

This activity/assessment reinforces the concept of classifying animals: farm, zoo, or pet. Students are given a picture of an animal and must write "F" for farm, "Z" for zoo, or "P" for pet to classify each animal. If you would like a powerpoint lesson to go along with this assessment, check out my product, "Classifying Animals: Zoo, Farm or Pet" for a cute social living lesson.

This printable math center is a fun way of teaching kids time to the half hour! There are a variety of ways to implement these cards. One way is: after you print, cut the cards (and laminate if you wish), and place them all face down. Then students play as a memory/concentration - where getting a pair requires matching the analog clock card to the digital clock card. You can also distribute, and have them play Go-Fish. Another way of using these cards are to print, cut, and paste together a

This activity reinforces the phonics skill: "-dge" ending (e.g. edge, ledge, etc). It can be used as a whole class activity on an overhead projector or Promethean Board, assigned as homework, or placed in a center. The students are to add "dge" to the end of the word, then say it aloud.

This handout is great for math centers, early finishers or a worksheet for a money lesson.

The next page consists of pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters in which they must identify the coins and color them the assigned color.

This 22 item handout is a great resource to your phonics lesson on ch- sh- th- and wh-. It's most appropriate for end of the year first graders through third grade.

The first part of the worksheet contains 12 items giving the second part of the word and students must indicate if it needs ch-, sh-, th-, or wh- to complete the word (e.g. _____ _____ oulder, the student would write "sh" to make "shoulder"). The second part of

This assessment is great to include as a formal assessment to any opposites lesson or presentation. Students must draw a line from each picture in the right column to its opposite in the left column. For early finishers, I had them draw 3 pictures of pairs of opposites on the back of the page.
