About the store
I taught preschool for 5 years before graduating to Kindergarten! I found my home teaching this age group!! :) I have taught Kindergarten for 3 years and I spent one year teaching in Second grade. I feel that my years in preschool and my experience in Second have really helped me focus in on crucial skills for Kindergarteners based on where they are coming from and where they need to be in a few years! As of SY 2017/2018, I began teaching Special Education with an emphasis in Reading in lower grades.

Linus the Minus Takes it Away!

This is a subtraction center that my students absolutely love! First, introduce "Linus the Minus" with the poster provided. Students love that he "steals" or takes away counters! I use this game mat during my whole group instruction prior to students using this game independently! We use subtraction problems from our workbook, flash cards, or problems that I provide on the board to play the game. Simply print, assemble, and laminate for prolonged use!

Number Hunt and Dot Center Game

Use this along with number flash cards as a center. Lay out numbers 1-30 upside down. Laminate or use dot paint to have students mark when they turn over a number. Example, if a student turns over a "5", they need to search for "5" on their paper and dot it with the paint dotter (or if you laminate this they can color in the number 5 with a dry erase)! They continue until they have found all 30 numbers!!
