About the store
11 years teaching 3rd grade (the best grade level in the world), then several years in a small, bilingual charter school, teaching the English component to grades K-5. Following that, I picked up and gentled an unruly 5th grade class at a K-5 public school and then 3 years in 1st Grade -- during 2 of which I taught the Spanish component for a bilingual program in Las Vegas.
Never wanted to teach Kinder, but a few years ago I found myself in that position and found out I LOVE working with these bright little sponges (at least after the first 6 weeks)! It amazes me how much they grow and change throughout the school year. In no other grade level does one witness such a tremendous transformation in the course of a few short months!

Count the Dots
This game will provide students with practice in counting, identifying numbers, and the use of counting strategies. It contains dot cards with various arrangements of dots for each number, similar to what we use while doing Number Talks (Sherry Parish). I encourage you to have students identify HOW they arrived at their answer each time, as they will benefit from consistently considering, articulating and discussing number strategies. There are six game boards for each level so that the games

Aluluk's 3D Shape Arctic Adventure

Flip Flop Addition
This math activity allows students to explore the Commutative Property of Addition in a fun, stress free manner that allows them to develop and intuitive understanding. It's perfect for small group instruction and center time.
In my Kindergarten class, we refer to the Commutative Property of Addition as Flippy Flopping Numbers. My students enjoy manipulating numbers and are building awareness of the Commutative Property which they will learn formally later.

My students love it and provides them with the extra practice they need to master these important skills.

Teaching style
I'm a kind and loving teacher who feels it's incredibly important for students to learn independence and self-confidence. Our class motto is "We can do hard things." and I spend the year helping students recognize their ability to accomplish "hard things." Given the choice, I'd teach strictly via thematic units, like I did in the "old days", with project based learning.
