Directions for use: Print the ladybug number cards on card stock and laminate. Have students take two cards, write the numbers down on the lines on either side of a circle, then compare the numbers using symbols inside the circle. The ladybug cards can also be used for other math activities like adding or subtracting double digits with regrouping, order numbers, or place value.

Use this to quickly assess time skills of your students. I put one of these on each student's desk in the morning. Then, randomly, throughout the day, I will yell, "What time is it?" The students will quickly stop what they're doing, read the classroom analog clock, and write down the time. Each day I do this I can see how the skills is progressing. I also use the data from these to adjust my small groups. Don't forget to put one on your desk so you have an answer key for the day!

Use this chart to have your students keep track of their math fact fluency. Each month, students color in their bar graph to show how many subtraction facts they can accurately complete in one minute. This chart allows students to take more ownership of their progress, and they can set goals each month.

Use these pages to review basic math skills each day. I run these on cardstock and laminate them so my students could use a vis-à-vis pens to complete. Then, we rinse them off at the end of the day. There are three different versions included to reflect the changing skill level of your students.
