I created these worksheets to give my first grade students some direction when playing with 2D shape blocks in Math Centers. I wanted them to focus on composing new shapes and to continue practicing basic addition. The sheets each have several versions to help you differentiate for your students. As always, the full product is available in the preview, so please check it out to see if this is something that would work well for your students!

I created these activity cards to help my students remember what to do in their centers. These centers all focus on practicing addition and subtraction. I like more open-ended activities where students can repeat the same task in different ways without getting bored, instead of rushing through a set task or worksheet. I've tried to reflect that in these activities. After students have completed the task several times (or when the math center time is up), I normally like them to record the equ

Differentiated worksheets for students to practice word form and number form. I created these sheets because I wanted some simple sheets where students could practice writing out their numbers in word form. Several sheets could be used for students to practice writing numerals as well. There are two complete sets, one with primary lines and one without. Included: · Numbers 0-10 (word bank included) · Numbers 1-10 (word bank included) · Numbers 0-10 (no word bank) · Numbers 11-20 (word bank i

Three sets of shape matching worksheets that I used with my first-grade students. Answer sheets included. The first set matches my Making Shapes with Shapes worksheets and most 2D pattern block sets. It includes the following shapes: square, triangle, rectangle, hexagon, parallelogram, and trapezoid. The second set includes the following shapes: circle, square, rectangle, triangle, and hexagon. The third set includes the following shapes: circle, square, triangle, rectangle, pentagon,

This story is a fun way to introduce or review the Order of Operations (PEDMAS or BEDMAS) to students. It could also be used by teachers looking for cross-curricular connections between Math and ELA (and perhaps Social Studies). I’ve included 2 versions, one using PEDMAS and one using BEDMAS. There are both color and black-and-white versions of each version. Please note that this story DOESN'T teach PEDMAS/BEDMAS. Instead, it is a way to introduce or help solidify the concept.

I hope your students enjoy these games as much as my first graders do! The first game is at a first/second level. The others are more of a second/third level. Race to a Dollar game reinforces:• money (Students need to quickly and easily count pennies and dimes, and convert 100 cents into one dollar.) • place value and regrouping (I deliberately set up the playing board to mimic a place value chart.) • counting by tens and ones • counting to 120 (Figuring out who was closes

I wanted some simple recording sheets where my students could record the equations they created themselves in math centers. These sheets are something I can reuse with multiple different centers and levels.
