These math word problems are perfect to begin a discussion in math, daily review, homework, or manipulative math. These worksheets are simple and address one concept for the day. Students can work, or model, a problem in the space provided and then come up with a math fact to go along with the problem. While it sounds very simple, students will still be challenged, and engaged, and those who finish early can color. -All credits and links are given at the end of the power point!

Teaching story elements in kindergarten can be so easy and fun! I put together this very simple, easy, and fun mini-unit on characters in literature. This unit allows you to introduce "what a character is," as well as go in depth as far as you would like. I started the unit with posters and simple stories (The Three Little Pigs, Itsy Bitsy Spider, and Humpty Dumpty). These stories are well-known, so students do not have to learn BOTH the stories and the characters all at the same time. It is a

Story elements are a necessary part of our kindergarten instruction. Often times students "get" what a setting is, but draw a blank when asked to go draw a picture of it or what a setting is. So, we need more practice. This packet has four posters with different settings to show how settings can show: -day and night (Hey Diddle, Diddle) -seasons (fall) -forest (woods with Little Red Riding Hood) and -and a zoo. These pictures tell where and when the story takes place, so students just have to

Teaching Story Elements to Kindergarteners does not have to be hard. It can be easy! These mini-lessons break the elements down into "kid-friendly" language that engages students and brings students to understanding each element very easily. - Teaching the main idea is the first of these lesson series that I have completed. I will be working on the others and getting them out shortly. I used these strategies in class - and they WORK! - Finding main idea is one of the harder elements - so I m

Kindergarten students have to see text as meaningful, or purposeful. This packet will engage students by keeping their interest in pictures while asking them to write the beginning sounds of the words. This packet is black and white to aid in other areas of the Kindergarten curriculum, such as fine motor skills. There is also an additional blank labeled page included in this set to challenge students, or simply use later in the year. Another great idea for this unit is to incorporate “setting”

This product helps kids learn to write about what they see and learn how to answer basic comprehension questions. For example, one page says: I see a cat. The cat is black. -There are blank spaces for the students to fill in.... I see a ______. The cat is ________.

School begins at 8:ish and so do your chores as a teacher - Many of them you cannot do until the students get into the room. Lunch counts, attendance, library book returns, etc. So, what ar

Students often dislike math word problems... But, they do not have to! With practice, students will see that math stories – word problems – are simply that… a story. They will find that math stories relate to practical issues in the workplace and society. They will learn to formulate a plan and make models (first with manipulatives & they can transfer this model to the paper in this packet). They will learn to communicate math ideas using graphs, diagrams, and spoken language (especially in
