I created this document for the K-4 teachers in my district because the Common Core is not only new but written at a level that doesn't translate well for elementary teachers. This is a list of the Common Core Standards for Mathematical Practice written for K-4 teachers! It also contains a list of guiding questions for each of these standards adapted from various math series'. This list can be kept with your math lesson plan book so you know all the practice standards are being taken care of!

This project lets children review geometric vocab and shapes such as types of angles, all shapes, types of triangles, parallel lines, etc. as they build a house for a little piggy who lost his! Students create a 2D or 3D model of a home with certain requirements on what needs to be in the design. The finished products that students brought in were amazing!!

This book report puts students in the role as a psychic as they look into their crystal ball to predict what they think a story will be about as they pre-read. A great way to get kids interested in a story in a fun way!
